This graph shows the path length based on the number of speciation events in a evolution path.
Speciation Events vs. Path Length gradual evolution Path Length punctuational evolution Number of Speciation Events
What does the graph suggest about the evolution path length
a. The punctuational evolution path is the same as the gradual evolution path
b. The gradual evolution path is longer that the punctuational evolution path
c. Gradual evolution does not effect the evolution path length
d. Punctuational evolution does not effect the evolution path length
