Answer:

Hypodermis

Explanation:

  • The hypodermis is also known as the subcutaneous layer which lies beneath the dermis.
  • It is the main storage site of the fat and consists of the adipocytes.
  • It helps to fasten the skin over the surface that lies beneath it and further provides insulation and shock absorbance properties.
  • It further allows the skin to move freely over the underlying surface such as bone and muscle without undergoing any wear and tear.

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.
