The wings of a bird and the wings of an insect are :
1 Homologous structures and represent convergent evolution
2 Homologous structures and represent divergent evolution
3 Analogous structures and represent convergent evolution
4 Phylogenetic structures and represent divergent evolution
Explanation:
The wings of a bird and the wings of an insect shows analogous structures and represent convergent evolution. - Analogous structures also called homoplasies, are traits of different species that have similar function. These similarities are result of convergent evolution, where different species independently adapt to similar environmental, ecological niches leading to the development of similar traits. Such as wing in birds and bat both have wing that enable them to fly, but the evolve independent. Birds have feathered wing while bats have membranous (patagium) wings. - Convergent evolution is a kind of evolution where in organisms evolve structures that have similar (analogous) structures or functions in spite of their evolutionary ancestors being very dissimilar or unrelated.

In Australia, marsupials and placental mammals have evolved to share many similar characteristics. This type of evolution may be referred to as
1 Convergent Evolution
2 Adaptive Radiation
3 Divergent Evolution
4 Cyclical Evolution
Explanation:
Convergent evolution is the process by which organisms that are not closely related independently evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments or ecological niches . - In Australia, marsupials and placental mammals have evolved to share many similar characteristics, such as carnivorous teeth, long legs for running, and pouches for carrying young. This is because they have adapted to similar ecological niches such as hunting insect and small animals in open grasslands.

Among the following sets of examples for divergent evolution, select the incorrect option:
1 Forelimbs of man, bat and cheetah
2 Heart of bat, man and cheetah
3 Eye of octopus, bat and man
4 Brain of bat, man and cheetah
Explanation:
Divergent evolution result in the homologous structures i.e. having same structure but are different in function like-forelimbs, heart-brain of vertebrate which have developed along different directions due to adaptation to different need where as eye of octopus, bat and man is an example of analogous structure showing convergent evolution. i. Homologous organs . Have a similar origin but perform different functions. Ex- Forelimb of man and front leg of bull. ii. Analogous organ . Analogous organ are different in basic structure but perform same function. Ex- Wing of insect, tailfins of lobster (Fish).

The process by which organisms with different evolutionary history evolve similar phenotypic adaptation in response to a common environmental challenge, is called :
1 Adaptive radiation
2 Natural selection
3 Convergent evolution
4 Non-random evolution
Explanation:
Convergent evolution is defined as the process whereby distantly related organism independently evolve similar trait to adapt to similar ecological niches. - Distantly related organisms can resemble one another for a different reason. Convergent evolution, the independent evolution of similar features in different lineages - Convergent evolution occurs in unrelated group of organism. It is the development of similar functional structures but in unrelated groups. - The process of evolution of different species in a given geographical area starting from a point and literally radiating to other areas of geography is called adaptive radiation, - Natural selection is the basis of evolution.

The eye of octopus and eye of cat show different patterns of structure, yet they perform similar function. This is an example of:
1 Analogous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution
2 Homologous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution
3 Homologous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution
4 Analogous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution
Explanation:
DWhen two or more organ have similar function but their origin is different, then they are called analogous organ. - The eye of octopus and eye of cat show different pattern of structure, yet perform similar function, this is an example of analogous organ that have evolved due to convergent evolution. e.g.. Fin of Whale, Wings of birds, Ostrich. Both are analogous in nature. Octopus, squid, cattle fish, nautilus all have differently shaped pupils an octopus has rectangular pupils. (w - shaped pupils.) - Homologous character shares many biological properties in the different organism in which it occurs. e.g.. The arm of a human the wing of a birds or bat, the leg of dog and flipper of dolphin or whale are Homologous in structure.
