Explain convergent evolution with the help of two examples, one from plants and the other from the animals.
Examples of convergent evolution in animals:
the relationship between bat and insect wings, shark and dolphin bodies, and vertebrate and cephalopod eyes.
Examples of convergent evolution in plants:
the repeated development of C4 photosynthesis, seed dispersal by fleshy fruits adapted to be eaten by animals, and carnivory.
