Evolution: Divergence, Parallelism, and Convergence

We are covering evolution, so I decided to dig out my Antrhopology notes from last semester and create some diagrams to portray the differences between divergence, parallelism, and convergence. Click on the pictures for full size!

Divergence
Related species that evolve differently as they adapt to different environments.

Parallelism
Relates species that evolve similarly as they adapt to similar environments.

Convergence
Unrelated species that evolve similarly as they adapt to similar environments.
