Answer:

Punctuated equilibrium

Explanation:

Adaptive radiation: It is a rapid evolution of many species from common ancestor. It generally occurs when an individual organism enters in new area or environment.

Convergent equilibrium : when species have different ancestors but have developed or acquired similar features.

Divergent equilibrium: when two different species evolved from same or common ancestors.

Punctuated equilibrium: when organisms are in major change causes evolutionary pressure, result in rapid burst until stasis reached again.

So the answer is Punctuated equilibrium.
