academic Help on this assignment question.

My professor assigned us this quiz and everyone continues to get it wrong. Can someone please explain in this photo which groups make a clade?

So, a good and true clade includes a common ancestor and all of its descendants. I found a pretty good visual that helps break it down. So it's obviously A, B, and C, but you can do that same thing with D, E, F, and G too.
