Cell Structure and Diversity Flashcards

1
Q

Unity in Diversity

A

Unity found in shared features
* Divergence - similar base structure but adapted to their environments
* Convergence - not having a similar base structure but having similar similar pressures

Common ancestor (unity) but differences due to SPs (Diversity)
