A. Species K can be used as an outlier. B. The most recent common ancestor for Species A to D probably infected water fowl. C. The most recent common ancestor for Species A to F probably infected fish. D. We can conclude that infection of water fowl by Species D is a reversal event. E. A minimum of three evolutionary events are needed to result in the pattern of host usage distribution depicted in the figure.
