KVPYKVPY 2014
Solution:
Divergent evolution occurs when two different species share a common ancestor but have different characteristics from one another. An example of divergent evolution is human’s arm, the whale’s fin, cheetah’s legs and bat’s wing. All four forelimbs perform different purposes, but all contain the same bones in different sizes and shapes because all four animals (human, cheetah, whale, bat) evolved
from a common ancestor whose legs contained those bones.
