Answer:

D.

Explanation:

A 'common ancestor' on a cladogram is all of those points where your lines come down and meet the primary line at the bottom.

In this case, your most recent common ancestor is at the point connected to the crocodile. All species at or past that point have that common ancestor, which include only the crocodile and the bird.

It would be D birds and crocodiles
