The answer is b. Different varieties can develop from a single species as a result of the recombination of genetic information. 

Varieties are a taxonomic level below subspecies, which is below species. They develop from a single species as a result of the recombination of genetic information. For example, Brassica oleracea is wild cabbage. From wild cabbage developed some varieties, in binomial nomenclature marked with var: Brassica oleracea var. oleracea - cabbage, Brassica oleracea var. italica - broccoli, Brassica oleracea var. botrytis - cauliflower.
They are all very similar because they are developed as the result of genetic recombination.
