Answer:

B. Many species are common in only one area of the world.  

Explanation:

Species that occur in only one region of the world are called Endemic Species.

According to biogeography, an endemic species is that animal or plant species that occurs only in a particular area or geographic region. Endemism is caused by any physical, climatic and biological barriers that effectively delimit the distribution of a species or cause its separation from the original group. When the separation occurs for a long period, the isolated group undergoes a natural selection that develops in it a differentiation of other members of the species.

The Blue Macaw is an example of an endemic species of tropical rainforests in South America.
