| 1 | CONVERGENT EVOLUTION | independent operation of similar selective forces; the process by which analogies are produced | Exam Review 2 |
| 2 | convergent evolution | when two or more species NOT descended from a common ancestor develop similar traits | natural selection |
| 3 | convergent evolution | where unclosely related organisms evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments | AP Bio Evolution Vocab |
| 4 | convergent evolution | when two or more species NOT descended from a common ancestor develop similar traits | Evolution 1 |
| 5 | Convergent Evolution | processs by which organisms independently evolve similarities when adapting to similar enviroments | Biology-Evolution Test!! |
| 6 | convergent evolution | evolution in which distantly related organisms evolve similar traits | chap. 14-15 |
| 7 | convergent evolution | explains how 2 species evolve similarly, yet there is no common ancestr | Biology Final Exam |
| 8 | Convergent evolution | When similar environments result in similar solutions in totally different ways | Science, Evolution |
| 9 | Convergent evolution | A form of evolution in which different organisms are placed into the same environment and exposed to teh same selection pressures. This causes the organisms to evolve along similar lines. As a result, they may share functional, but not structural similarity (because they possessed different startgin materials). Convergent evolution produces analogous structures. | MCAT Biology |
| 10 | convergent evolution | the process whereby organisms not closely related (not monophyletic), independently evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments | BSC 2009L Vocab Lab 1 |
| 11 | convergent evolution | adaptation to similiar ecological features that bring about similarities in behaviour/structure among animals distantly related | CH 6 |
| 12 | convergent evolution | when different species living in the same environment come to look similar | Evolution |
| 13 | convergent evolution | the process by wich similarities evolve in organisms not closely related to one another | D CHILIE 2 |
| 14 | Convergent Evolution | 2 unrelated species have similar traits (analogous) b/c they have similar natural selection | Evolution AP Biology |
| 15 | convergent evolution | independent evolution of adaptive features in different species | Patterns of Evolution |
| 16 | convergent evolution | evolution of similar adpative features in two different species due to the same environment | evolution |
| 17 | convergent evolution | when unrelated species may independetly evolve superficial similarities because of their adaptations to the same environment. | biology EOCT voc |
| 18 | Convergent Evolution | Process by which unrelated organisms come to resemble one another. | History of Life |
| 19 | convergent evolution | The development through evolution of similar features by organisms with distinctly different ancestors | ap biology terms evolution |
| 20 | convergent evolution | .. | five kingdom |
| 21 | convergent evolution | where unclosely related organisms evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments | Evolution |
| 22 | convergent evolution | The development of similar structures in distantly related organisms as a result of adapting to similar environments and/or strategies of life. Example: wings of birds and insects, the body shape of dolphins, sharks, and the extinct marine reptiles known as ichthyosaurs. | ap bio five kingdom row 1 |

| 25 | convergent evolution | the process by which unrelated species become more similar as they adapt to the same kind of environment | Biology Chapter 15 |
| 26 | convergent evolution | in cultural evolution, the development of similar adaptations to similar environmental conditions by peoples whose ancestral cultures were quite different | Ch. 17- Patterns of Subsistence |
| 27 | convergent evolution | a progress in which different species evolve with similar characteristics; often the result of living in a similar environment | Ch 10 - Accel Biology Vocab |
| 28 | Convergent evolution | A form of evolution in which different organisms are placed into the same environment and exposed to teh same selection pressures. This causes the organisms to evolve along similar lines. As a result, they may share functional, but not structural similarity (because they possessed different startgin materials). Convergent evolution produces analogous structures. | Biology |

| 33 | Convergent evolution | process whereby organisms not monophyletic (not closely related), independently evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to ecological niches or similar environments | Geology Ch 6 |
| 34 | Convergent Evolution | Evolution in which unrelated organisms evolve similar traits and occurs when unrelated species occupy similar environments. (Example - Cactus in Mexico vs. Cactus in Africa) | Mr. T.'s Evolution Review |
| 35 | convergent evolution | process by which unrelated organisms independantly evolve similarities when adapting to similar evniorments | Biology Chapter 17 |
| 36 | Convergent Evolution | Type of Evolutionary process by whereby species come to share phenotypic characteristics due to similar environmental pressures. | Anthropology |
| 37 | Convergent Evolution | A type of speciation where different species begin to evolve and look similar in structure because they have similar surviving traits int the environment | Evolution |
