A) Convergent evolution
B) Divergent evolution
C) Microevolution
D) Co-evolution
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] Convergent evolution is the process whereby organisms which are not closely related independently evolve similar traits as a result of capability to adapt to similar environments or ecological niches. It is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different lineages. Convergent evolution creates analogous structures that have similar form or function, but that were not present in the last common ancestor of those groups.
