Divergent Evolution | Convergent Evolution |
$(1)$ Development of different functional structures from a common ancestral form is called divergent evolution. | $(1)$ Development of similar adaptive functional structures in unrelated groups of organisms is called convergent evolution. |
$(2)$ Homologous organs show divergent evolution. | $(2)$ Analogous organs show convergent evolution. |
