The marsupial Tasmanian \"wolf\" (Thylacinus) resembles its placental counterpart, the wolf (Canis) in appearance, though they are completely different species. What does this phenomenon exhibit? . A. Allopatric speciation B. Sympatric speciation C. Adaptive radiation D. Convergent evolution
The answer is D. Convergent Evolution
Convergent Evolution happens when two different species that
are not closely related evolved. This can be a random mutation of two animals
that possess different kinds of genetic traits. An example of this is the Thylacinus
or also known as the Tasmanian Tiger or the Tasmanian Wolf.
