CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is convergent evolution.

Explanation:

The wings of bats, butterflies, and most birds are the example of analogous structure. Analogous structures are the structures which are similar in appearance and function but have separate evolutionary origin.

They are similar superficially because they experienced a natural selection that evolved them to have that shape which helps them to fly. Analogous structures are produced due to convergent evolution.  

Convergent evolution describes the presence of the same trait in unrelated species. Therefore the correct answer is convergent evolution.

Plastics, synthetic fabrics, and synthetic rubber are composed of chemicals that are derived from
SVEN [57.7K]
Petroleum Products

Petroleum and its products are mainly composed of carbon polymers (chains), as the backbone, with different structural and functional groups. Plastic, for example, is made of polypropylene and polybutylene which is mainly made of carbon atoms, whose monomers are linked in a chain to form polymers that make up the products.
Synthetic rubber on the other hand is made of copolymers of carbon and other addictives such as styrene. Synthetic fiber is made of nylon that is composed of a copolymer between carboxylic acid and amides.
