Question

question 8
wings on birds and bats are an example of
○ homoplasy.
○ homology.
○ anagenesis.
○ cladogenesis.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Homoplasy refers to similar traits that evolve independently in different lineages. Birds and bats are not closely - related, but both evolved wings for flight independently. Homology is when traits are similar due to common ancestry. Anagenesis is the evolution of a species over time. Cladogenesis is the splitting of a lineage into two or more lineages.

Answer:

homoplasy.
