Occurs when species that were similar become increasingly distinct?
Divergent evolution:)
Describe an example of how natural selection influenced the evolution of a particular species?
a great example is the peppered moth. look up the full story in wikipedia
When related species become dissimilar as they evolve they are undergoing what type of evolution?
Divergent Evolution. Definition of Diverge: to deviate from a set course or standard. soource: google definitions
Speciation caused by change in the course of a river is an example pf divergent speciation?
Allopatric speciation.
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.

The evolutionary pattern illustrated by the finch species on the galapagos islands is an example of what?
divergent evolution i think
Divergent evolution is also known as?
Divergent evolution is also known as adaptive radiation.
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.

Divergent Evolution Pvt Locklear was here ;)
Is human evolution divergent?
Yes
Complete history of a theory of evolution?
There are many books that describe the theory of evolution. For example, there is a book called Evolution: The Remarkable History of a Scientific Theory.
Do hedgehogs and echidnas show an example of divergent evolution?
Hedgehogs and echidnas show convergent evolution. Despite being far apart, they ended up looking very similar. Like sharks and dolphins.
Related organisms become less alike by preditation adaptation convergent evolution or divergent evolution?
Related organisms become less alike by divergent evolution, which occurs when two different populations from the same ancestor evolve in separate directions, leading to different traits and characteristics. Over time, natural selection causes these divergent traits to become more pronounced, resulting in greater differences between the populations.
What occurs when species that were similar become increasingly extinct?
Divergent Evolution :)
What is simliar between convegent evolution and divergent?
Both convergent and divergent evolution involve the process of species adapting to their environments over time through natural selection. Convergent evolution results in different species developing similar traits independently in response to similar environmental pressures, while divergent evolution leads to the development of distinct traits in related species due to different environmental pressures.
