Question

Development of adaptations along parallel lines in unrelated groups of animals is

• A. Adaptive convergence
• B. Adaptive radiation
• C. Adaptive divergence
• D. Adaptive induction

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Adaptive convergence

At the point when parallel development under comparable ecological conditions in remotely related life forms results in plants and creatures that are morphologically fundamentally the same as in generally speaking appearance, this is called convergent evolution.

So, the correct option is 'Adaptive convergence'.
