This image shows how a lunar eclipse occurs. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly behind Earth into its umbra, o

r shadow. As shown in the image, the Sun, Earth, and Moon align, with Earth in the middle. Given this information, which statement elaborates on why there is not a solar eclipse every month, as the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth? A) The Moon is not large enough to cast an umbra, or shadow, on a celestial body as large as Earth. B) Phases of the Moon prevent monthly solar eclipses because they cause the Moon's shadows to change. C) Craters on the surface of the Moon redirect the Sun's light toward Earth, decreasing the Moon's shadow. D) Most of the shadows cast by the Earth and Moon do not align because the tilts of each orbit is different.

Lemur [1.5K]

The answer is similarly; similar environments.


<span>Convergent evolution suggests different organisms evolved <u>similarly</u> due to <u>similar environments</u>. </span>


Convergent evolution is a phenomenon of independent evolution of similar traits in species that are in different lineages. These traits are similar in form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those species.

There are many examples of convergent evolution among plants and animals.
Among the plants, both cactus and euphorbia are succulent plants, have spines, live in the deserts, but they belong to the different families.
Among the animals, dolphin, which is a mammal, is more similar to fish, than to other mammals. Or, both birds and bat, which is the mammal, have wings.

So, all these examples of convergent evolution suggest that the living in the similar environmental conditions led to development of similar forms between distinct species.
