 The horizontal axis of the cladogram depicted below is a timeline that extends from 100,000 years ago to the present; the vertical axis represents nothing in particular. The labeled branch points on the tree (V-Z) represent various common ancestors. Let's say that only since 50,000 years ago has there been enough variation between the lineages depicted here to separate them into distinct species, and only the tips of the lineages on this tree represent distinct species.

 In Darwin's tree of life, each fork in the tree represents ________.

Following are certain statements regarding furanocoumarins;

 a) furanocoumarins have an attached furan ring

 b) These compounds are toxic until they are activated by sunlight in the ultraviolet A (UV-A) region (320–400 nm)  

 c) Light activated furanocoumarins can insert themselves into the double helix of DNA and bind to the pyrimidine bases, thus blocking transcription and repair and leading eventually to cell death   

 d) Phototoxic furanocoumarins are especially abundant in members of the Umbelliferae family, including celery, parsnip, and parsley.
