Part A Plants fungi and animals are all MULTICELLULAR organi

Part A.

Plants, fungi and animals are all MULTICELLULAR organisms. Based on the phylogeny above this is due to:

e. Shared ancestry

Part B

Plants, fungi, and animals all have EUKARYOTIC cells. This is due to:

Solution

Part B

Plants, fungi, and animals all have Multicellular organisms. This is due to convergent evolution. Convergent evolution is the process whereby organisms, which are not closely related, independently evolve similar traits that results from adaptation to similar environments.

Hence, the correct option is b. Convergent evolution.

Part B

Plants, fungi, and animals all have EUKARYOTIC cells. This is due to homology. In this context, homology is the existence of shared ancestry between organisms.

Hence, the correct option is a. homology.
