Convergent evolution<span> is the independent </span>evolution<span> of similar features in species of different lineages. Convergent evolution creates </span>analogous structures<span> that have similar form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those groups. The </span>cladistic<span> term for the same phenomenon is </span>homoplasy<span>. The </span>recurrent evolution<span> of flight is a classic example, as flying </span>insects<span>, </span>birds<span>, and </span>bats<span> have independently evolved the useful capacity of flight. Functionally similar features that have arisen through convergent evolution are </span>analogous<span>, whereas </span>homologous<span> structures or traits have a common origin but can have dissimilar functions. Bird, bat and </span>pterosaur<span> wings are analogous structures, but their forelimbs are homologous, sharing an ancestral state despite serving different functions.</span>
B. Oncogenes. Protooncogenes usually mutate to form oncogenes, which codes for a growth factor that is permanently activated, which leads to excessive cell division.

Conjugation is the direct transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another.
Bacteria can exchange genetic information through three different mechanisms; conjugation, transduction, and transformation. Bacterial conjugation involves the transfer of a plasmid from one bacterium to the other, through cell-to-cell contact. Bacterial transduction is performed through bacteriophages. Bacterial transformation refers to the process of moving genetic elements to various positions of the genome.
The answer is false (sorry I'm late.)
Answer:
(B) They Bind to receptor proteins on the surface of the postsynaptic neuron.
