Answer:

Koala- Bandicoot

Explanation:please mark the answer as brainliest only if it is correct

Answer 2

Among the following, the odd pair is Koala - Bandicoot.

• Koala - Bandicoot is the odd one because this pair does not exhibit convergent evolution.
• Koalas and Bandicoots show adaptive radiation.
• Diversification that happens due to environmental changes is known as adaptive radiation. This is essential for the continuation of the species.
• All other pairs: Anteater - Numbat, Lemur - Spotted cuscus, and Flying squirrel - Sugar glider exhibit convergent evolution.
• When totally unrelated species, develops independently to exhibit similar traits so as to survive in similar habitats, it is known as convergent evolution.
• Organisms exhibiting convergent evolution look anatomically different but they will have certain traits that have the same functions.
