Answer: B! Many new species form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adaptive radiation refers to the process by which animals diversify rapidly from the ancestral species into different forms especially when resources are abundantly available. The effect of adaptive radiation is the emergence of new species, which exhibit different morphological and physiological traits.

Hope this helps! :)
