Answer:

B) are presently unclear.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any group of organisms whose cells contain a mitochondrion and a nucleus is referred to as the Eukaryote.

Branching points at the root of the eukaryotic phylogenetic tree are presently unclear.

Haven studied the root of the eukaryotes over the years, the branching points at the root is still not clear and unresolved.

However, the first eukaryote may have been capable of phagocytosis.
