Best answer

Correct option is (c) does not necessarily

To explain: The sequence may evolve more or less rapidly than other genes in the genome or may have a different evolutionary history from the rest of the genome owing to horizontal gene transfer events. Thus, the evolution of a particular sequence does not necessarily correlate with the evolutionary path of the species.
