What else can I help you with?
What is the similarity among forearm in amphibians reptiles birds and mammals is an example of?
They all have the same bones, albeit evolved to suit different needs.
How did Darwin explain existence of similar but unrelated species?
Through convergent evolution, in which similar function produces similar form.
What is an example of divergent evolution?
Basically, divergence is the "default mode" of evolution. So virtually all species you can think of would be examples of divergence. Even in cases of parallel and convergent evolution, the underlying genomes will continue to diverge. An often used example of divergent evolution in the morphological and behavioural sense is Darwin's finches.
What is it called when two very different species evolve to look like each other?
Convergent evolution may be the words you seek. This often happens when different species have to adapt to a similar environment. An example would be the similar body shape, and the shape of appendages; of both fish and of marine mammals.
Which pair of organisms show convergent evolution?
One example of this type of evolution, where similar useful traits emerge in unrelated species, would be long canine teeth in saber-toothed cats as well as marsupial lions. The organisms are not genetically related, but developed this trait independently of each other.
How do adaptive radiation and convergent evolution differ?
Divergent evolution creates the divergence of a single species by isolating the gene pools of each species thereby increasing the differences between the population and eventually species. Divergent evolution is the evolution of different species from a common ancestor (and hence common characteristics) to attain new, dissimilar characteristics. Convergent evolution works on a different level. Unlike divergent evolution, convergent evolution does not create species with similar derived characteristics. Convergent evolution involves the adaptation of several different, unrelated organisms to the same environment in the same way. For example, flies and birds are not immediately related yet they both cope with getting around by flying with wings- similar structures that are not derived from one and other. Convergent evolution does not create new species, unlike divergent evolution. Convergent evolution is the co-evolution of different species with different ancestors in such a way that they attain the same characteristics independently of each other.
How does the velocity of a object affect the size of a crater?
if high it might make a high and hard crater if it is a small crater it might would make a small and smooth crater
What does unity of pattern mean in evolution?
Unity of pattern in evolution refers to the idea that organisms that share a common ancestor often show similarities in their structural and developmental characteristics. This is evidence of common descent and illustrates the concept of homology, where traits are similar due to shared ancestry rather than convergent evolution. For example, the similarity of bones in the forelimbs of vertebrates like humans, birds, and whales is a result of unity of pattern.
What is the latitude and longitude of a crater in the equator on mars?
One example of a crater on Mars located near the equator is the Gale Crater, which is approximately centered at 4.49°S latitude and 137.44°E longitude.
Is a mountain a example of a convergent boundary?
A mountain is an example of a possible result of converging plate boundaries. An actual example of a converging plate boundary would be the Indian-Eurasian Plate Boundarywhich is creating the Himalayan Mountain Range. Other convergent plates can create trenches such as the Mariana Trench, which is the lowest place on the surface of the Earth.
If a colony of bacteria were to give rise to an amoeba what would this be an example of?
This would be an example of transformation through evolution. Over time, genetic mutations and natural selection can lead to new species arising from common ancestors. In this case, the amoeba would have evolved from the bacteria through a series of genetic changes.
Where would you find the crater of a volcano?
