Otherwise, if not by chance nor by shared ancestry, the similarities may only be explained by convergent evolution. |
|
The most amazing fact about the evolution of flight is the extent of convergent evolution between the three main groups that evolved it. |
|
Analogous structures are similar adaptations that result from convergent evolution. |
|
Lastly, Feduccia advocated the notion that convergent evolution may make the ancestry of birds unknowable. |
|
An interesting example of convergent evolution is seen between these pelycosaurs and the unrelated dinosaurs. |
|
The skull is an example of convergent evolution with some of the ornithopods and also with the dicynodonts, an herbivorous group of early synapsids. |
|
This is a good example of convergent evolution, which is the development of similarities in separate lineages. |
|
The similarity, however, was superficial and a result of convergent evolution. |
|
Finally, progress is real but it will be amplified by a better use and by a convergent evolution of B2B applications. |
|
Remarks: The unique colour of this copper has led to speculation on its convergent evolution with blues. |
|
That lactose tolerance has evolved independently four times is an instance of convergent evolution. |
|
A new horned dinosaur reveals convergent evolution in cranial ornamentation in Ceratopsidae. |
|
Ornithomimids were a distinctive group of theropod dinosaurs who show a good example of convergent evolution with the ratite birds, such as ostriches. |
|
Kalligrammatid lacewings are interesting because they are a classic example of convergent evolution. |
|
Pitfall traps are derived from rolled leaves, which evolved several independent times through convergent evolution. |
|
This phenomenon is known as convergent evolution. |
|
This might have been convergent evolution, as well, of course. |
|
Interestingly, this molecule, termed Isac, has no similarity to any previously reported anti-complement molecules suggesting that it has been acquired through a mechanism of convergent evolution. |
|
Biologists call this convergent evolution. |
|
Now, this is generally considered convergent evolution, owing to many morphological and genetic differences between the two phyla. |
|
|
Superficial similarities between cephalopod and vertebrate eyes are thought to be examples of convergent evolution. |
|
Nevertheless, they are not closely related to penguins, but rather are believed to be an example of moderate convergent evolution. |
|
While this body form is similar to that of ankylosaurs, it resulted from convergent evolution. |
|
Analogous structures are the result of convergent evolution and should be contrasted with homologous structures. |
|
This phenomenon is called convergent evolution, or convergence. |
|
The genetic variant of the MC1R gene linked to red hair in Neanderthals has not been found in modern humans, hence red hair may be an example of convergent evolution. |
|
Because these families do not share a common ancestor who also had pitfall trap morphology, carnivorous pitchers are an example of convergent evolution. |
