Question

Define in short :-
1)Divergent Evolution
2)Convergent Evolution ​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1)

Divergent evolution or divergent selection is the accumulation of differences between closely related populations within a species, leading to speciation.

2) Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different lineages. Convergent evolution creates analogous structures that have similar form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those groups. The cladistic term for the same phenomenon is homoplasy.

Answer 2

Answer:

Divergent evolution occurs when two separate species evolve differently from a common ancestor. ... Convergent evolution occurs when species have different ancestral origins but have developed similar features. A good example of convergent evolution is the similarities between the hummingbird and the hummingbird moth.
