Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
The evolutionary history of an organism with its relationship with other organisms is called as phylogeny. In order to create phylogenies, the characteristics which are primitive and which are advanced are studied. This helps to identify the ancestors of the organism. The characters or features which are studied must be homologous. If they have the common ancestors means that they must have a common origin, but not necessarily a common function.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
