    Convergent and divergent evolution describe patterns in how organisms change over time. Convergent evolution occurs when unrelated species independently evolve similar traits to adapt to the same environment, while divergent evolution happens when a single ancestral species gives rise to descendants that become increasingly different through adaptation to different conditions.

    Patterns of Evolution

    Convergent Evolution
    ● Process by which distantly related ogranisms develop similar
    ● Same function different structure

    Divergent Evolution
    ● Came from the same ancestor but adapted to different characteristics
    ● Organisms with common ancestor but adapted to different traits
