In science, mimicry refers to a phenomenon where one species evolves to resemble another in order to gain a selective advantage, such as protection from predators or enhanced access to resources. This can occur through either Batesian mimicry, where a harmless species evolves to imitate a harmful one, or Müllerian mimicry, where multiple harmful species converge in appearance to reinforce warning signals. Mimicry is an example of convergent evolution driven by natural selection.
