Answer 2

Answer:

B: 34, 55

Step-by-step explanation:

To get generation 7, the relatives of generation 5 and 6 were added. (8+13=21). So, to get generation 8, you need to add the relatives of generation 6 and 7. (13+21). Then, to get the ninth generation, you add the relatives of 7 and 8. (21+34. In the Fibonacci sequence you add the previous 2 numbers together to get the next number. I hope I explained this well I really tried my best to explain this.
