The punctuated equilibrium model of evolution holds that evolution occurs in spurts, with species evolving relatively rapidly, and then remaining unchanged for long periods.
evolutionary changes in organisms
The older morphological methods were, in many cases, shown to be wrong because there was no real evolutionary connection. And in other instances the evolutionary connection was shown for organisms that were morphologically quite dissimilar.
population is the primary evolutionary unit of any living organisms
scientists can infer how closely related the organisms are in an evolutionary sense
Systematics is the scientific study of the diversity of organisms and their evolutionary relationships. The science of naming, classifying, and describing organisms is called taxonomy.
The procedure of grouping organisms based on their evolutionary history is called evolutionary classification. It is also called Darwinian classification.
All organisms are related.
The characteristic that is of paramount importance for the evolutionary trend and success of organisms today is Adaptation.

Grouping organisms according to theri characteristics and evolutionary history :)
Of the picks only c can be correct because these mutations could lead to evolutionary change in future populations of these organisms under question.
