Respuesta :

Answer:

- Species A and C may have shared features from a common ancestor

- Species B and E may have shared features from a common ancestor

- Species A is more related to species B than species B is related to (any of the other species)

Explanation:

From this phylogenetic tree we can see that all five species have a shared distant, common ancestor, meaning that they all evolved from a single species. Because they all share the same common ancestor, there's every chance that the species A and C, or species B and E, share some features from their common ancestor even though they have become separate species and have been so for longer period of time. If we look at the present bonds, than we can see that the species A and B are much more closely related between each other than with any of the other species, and the same can be inferred for the species D and E.

Answer:

The correct options are 1,4 and 5.
