Answer: B. Speciation

Step-by-step explanation:

Speciation is a process of development of new species from the existing parent species. This occur due to geographical isolation, behavioral isolation, morphological isolation.

The species in the galapagoes island diverge in morphology due to difference in eating habits and geographical isolation. This resulted in development of new species hence, resulted in speciation.
