The correct response is:
A
**continental drift**
This geological theory explains how llamas and camels, which are closely related and belong to the same family (Camelidae), could be found on different continents (South America and Asia/Africa, respectively). Continental drift suggests that continents have moved over geological time, allowing species to be separated and evolve independently.
