The correct answer is:
NOT AVAILABLE

Anagenesis, or phyletic evolution, is the accumulation of changes associated with the transformation of one species into another while cladogenesis or branching evolution involves the building of one or more new species from a parent species that continues to exist. Only cladogenesis can promote biological diversity by increasing the number of species.
