Here is your answer
Adaptive radiation is the evolutionary divergence of members of a single lineage into a variety of different adaptive forms. Usually the adaptive forms differ in their use of resources or habitats, and this divergence happens in a relatively short interval of geological time. In short, it's the tendency of a group of animals to evolve in response to selective pressures and adapt to their environments in different ways.
