Question

what happens in convergent evolution?
o different species share traits that they inherited from a shared ancestor.
o separate species develop from a single ancestral species.
o features of organisms not closely related come to resemble each other due to similar selective forces.
o different species unite into a single species by interbreeding.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Convergent evolution is when different species develop similar traits due to similar environmental pressures (selective forces), not because of shared ancestry. For example, wings in bats (mammals) and birds (aves) evolved independently.

Answer:

Features of organisms not closely related come to resemble each other due to similar selective forces.
