Solution

The correct option is B Multigene family
Multigene families typically consist of members with similar sequences and functions, though a high degree of divergence (at the sequence and/or functional level) does not lead to the removal of a gene from a gene family. One such example is the different types of haemoglobin are produced in different stages of human development.
So, the correct example is 'Multigene family.'
