1 Biology question , stuck between 2 answers!?

I would say the first one. It isn't the last one because they can share some traits but not be closely related. Human have legs and eyes, but so do frogs and we aren't closely related.

<<>>No, it wouldn't. They both evolved from a common ancestor, not each other.

<>>There is relation, again with a common ancestor. The first is the only one that is true except it should say "probably" recently diverged.

How might a comparison of the anatomy of two closely related animals such as lizards and snakes provide information about their evolutionary history?

A greater number of shared traits would mean they recently diverged from a common ancestor.

The anatomical differences between them would indicate which evolved from the other.

Physical traits shared between them would explain how they evolved in parallel, without relation.

Shared traits would indicate they must have a close relative in common.

I think Either D or A
