Answer:

convergent evolution.

Explanation:

When organisms of distantly related species or groups are found in similar environmental conditions, they develop some similar features which are otherwise not present in their ancestral species. This is called convergent evolution. Convergent evolution also results in the development of similar traits in the distantly related organisms that are found in distantly located geographical regions having similar environmental conditions. Therefore, the presence of the same features in rodents and flying squirrels represent convergent evolution.

If I subtract 20 from my number, then square the result, I get the same answer as if I square my number, then subtract 20 from t
Natasha_Volkova [10]

The value of the unknown number is 10.5.

Let the unknown number = x

When 20 is subtracted from the number and the result is squared which is equal to the square of the unknown number minus 20:

(x - 20)² = x² - 20

<em>expand the equation;</em>

x² -  40x  +  400 = x²  - 20

<em>collect similar terms together;</em>

x² - x² - 40x = -20 - 400

-40x = -420

x = \frac{420}{40}\\\\ x = 10.5

Thus, the value of the unknown number is 10.5.
