Question

If wolf-like morphology occurs in the animals that share it because this body form produces a very efficient predator, the morphology is an example of _____________ evolution

Answer 1

The morphology is an example of convergent evolution.
Convergent evolution refers to the observation that unrelated species can evolve independently to present similar characteristics. The result is that species with different lineage evolve similar structures, forms, organs or in general adaptations. An example could be the fact that insects, bats and birds (even though not related) have similar structures in order to achieve flight.
