• Coevolution

• Convergent

• Artificial

Convergent evolution is when

• Species share traits due to a common ancestor

• Species have similar traits because of similar environment

• Species have same traits due to different environments

Coevolution is the

• Species looking similar due to a common ancestor

• Species looking similar due to a common environment

• evolution of two species that do not interact

• evolution of one species in response to evolution in another species
