Speciation with branching of the evolutionary line of descent.

cladogenesis

Rate of change of morphological traits, typically measured by quantitative measures - Changes in disparity over time.

• Evolution is the change in populations, not in individuals.
• Evolution is not a process in which species universally progress up a "ladder".
• Humans are not descended from any modern species of monkey; both monkeys and humans are descended from some long-extinct ancestor pre-dating both. Although this species, if it were transferred to today, would be considered a "monkey", it is not any living species of monkey.
• Evolution explains how humans developed from a primate ancestor, but not an extant species of monkey or ape. (Modern primates include: bonobos, chimpanzees, gorillas, baboons, macaques, lemurs, gibbons, and humans. None of these is a descendant of any other.)
• Speciation can occur by branching into two or more reproductively isolated populations (cladogenesis) or when a single population changes over time to such an extent that the later population is considered a different species (anagenesis).

Yes. Velociraptor was very bird like. If you were to see a live one your first impression would probably be of a very odd bird. It was covered in feathers that left its arms looking like wings and was probably warm blooded.
