Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The idea is kinda like the more diverse individuals in a population are, the more chance that one of the individuals has immunity to a disease and is therefore able to survive when an epidemic happens. For example, imagine if all humans were exactly identical, kind of like clones of each other....then if there was some kind of disease that suddenly appeared, then all the humans would die because they have no resistance to it.
