Answer:
Adaptive radiation is a type of divergent evolution where a group of organisms quickly diverges into new species. Now, when you hear the word 'quickly' you might think of only a few days, but 'quickly' in evolutionary terms is much longer - like 500,000 years or more

Answer:
Yes, Divergent evolution is same as adaptive radiation.
Explanation:
Divergent evolution is the process of two or more related species becoming more and more dissimilar.
• Example includes the Darwin finches. As they adapted to different environments, the appearance of the two species diverged.
• Thus you can say that Adaptive radiation is one example of divergent evolution.
