A. D+E+F+G
B. A+B+C+D+E+F+G
C. B+C+D+E+G
D. C+D+E+F+G+H
In the figure below, Taxa I, II and III are as follows:

paraphyletic, polyphyletic, monophyletic
B.
paraphyletic, monophyletic, polyphyletic
C.
polyphyletic, monophyletic, paraphyletic
D.
monophyletic, polyphyletic, paraphyletic
Branch, clade and monophyletic group are perfectly synonymous.
