Question
All of the following have been suggested as triggers for the Cambrian
radiation of complex metazoans except:
perhaps the Cambrian metazoans outcompeted the Ediacaran metazoans,
opening up new ecological niches to fill
perhaps a series of fortuitsus genetic changes provided more raw material for
natural selection to act upon
perhaps increased oxygen in the world ocean promoted the evolution of
complex body forms
perhaps the rise in sea level that flooded the margins of the continents during
the earliest Paleozoic created abundant new ecological niches, promoting
biodiversity
O perhaps the "arms race" between predator and prey spurred evolutionary
innovation
