Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Just trust me.

it's not A because there's no such thing as favorable traits whenever it comes to incesticide and for B the majority of Beatles and future generations will also die that's only to the ones that died but that can not happen, which means that D is the one that will be the correct answer because if one lives, then the rest of the generations live due to immunity in the generation that started it.
