Another example is the similarities between hummingbird and hummingbird moth, the evolved from different ancestors and yet posses similar characteristics.
Answer:
The ability of species of living beings to overproduce offspring
Explanation:
Darwin proposed that species have the ability to produce offspring at a rate that could cause a geometric increase in the population size. This is called biotic potential. The overproduction of offspring causes intraspecific competition for the limited available resources. Darwin reasoned that the overproduction of progeny leads to a struggle for existence between the individuals of a population. He observed that the struggle for existence does not allow the population size of species to grow geometrically.
