Body parts of unrelated organisms that serve the same function are examples of convergent evolution.
<span>Convergent evolution is the phenomenon when the different species independently create similar features. Those features can be structures that have similar form or function. This happens because organisms have been adapted to similar environments or ecological niches.</span>

Part E Your molecular clock model resembles another branching chart, the phylogenetic chart, which you’ve used in this unit. Rev

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

The phylogenetic graph uses several types of variables to be formed, while other models use only one type of variable.

Explanation:

To create a phylogenetic chart, matrices with data on the studied species are used. These data are composed of morphological, chemical and / or genetic information that allow a detailed investigation about the ancestry of each species, in addition to allowing the correct grouping based on this ancestry and evolution.

A phylogenetic graph is different from other molecular models due to the number of data considered by it, since other models, such as the molecular clock, for example, only consider genetic based information.
