Answer 2

(c) Ginkgo is a living fossil

Explanation:

Ginkgo biloba are large trees that grow up to 50 meters in height. They have long erratic branches. Their deep roots make them resilient towards strong wind and snow damage

These trees are famously called living fossils because they have experienced little to no genetic changes over a period of millions of years.

They are commonly found in China.
