Answer:

Option (a).

Explanation:

Phylogentic tree may be defined as the the diagrammatic representation of the evolutionary relationship of the organism. The phylogenetic trees are made on the hypothesis and do not explain any fact.

The branching in the phylogenetic tree determines the evolution of the species from the common ancestor. The common ancestor is located at the base of the phylogenetic tress. Since, Ardipithecus ramidus is located at the base it shows that  Ardipithecus ramidus is a common ancestor.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

Answer: Tension

Explanation: Fault-block mountains are formed by the movement of large crustal blocks along faults formed when tensional forces pull apart the crust. Tension is often the result of uplifting part of the crust; it can also be produced by opposite-flowing convection cells in the mantle.
