Q. No.Divergent evolution is best illustrated when organisms with a common ancestral origin evolve different structural adaptations because they:
| 1. | Occupy identical ecological niches across different geographical regions |
| 2. | Perform different functions using structures derived from a common ancestry |
| 3. | Develop similar organs independently due to similar environmental pressures |
| 4. | Exhibit analogous organs with no underlying genetic relationship |
