Examine the Figure Below

Examine the figure below.
Why have the two plant populations depicted become so different in the time they were separated by the ocean?

A) Founder's effect. a small group of individuals carrying only the tall allele established a new population on the right side of the ocean.
B) The amount of gene flow between the two populations increased when the ocean separated the plants so mutations moved from one population to another.
C) When sea level rose, it killed all of the plants on the right side of the figure. A new species evolved from another plant species already existing in the mountains of the right.
D) The separated populations adapted to the different environments on each side of the ocean and became reproductively isolated.
