Answer»

The correct answer is (a) DEVELOPMENT of mimicry

To elaborate: One of the drawbacks of mutation theory was that it couldn’t explain the development of mimicry, the relationship between the position of nectars in FLOWER and also length of proboscis in their insect pollinators. The PROBLEM was that these cannot be IMAGINED to have developed all of a sudden.
