Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

A	Convergent
B	Divergent
C	Coevolution
D	None of the above

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -"Punctuated” referred to the sudden appearance of morphologically distinct new species in the fossil record. “Equilibria” referred to the stasis that species exhibit following speciation.

Detailed explanation-2: -This process in which one species gives rise to multiple species that exploit different niches is called adaptive radiation.

Detailed explanation-3: -New species form by speciation, in which an ancestral population splits into two or more genetically distinct descendant populations. Speciation involves reproductive isolation of groups within the original population and accumulation of genetic differences between the two groups.

Detailed explanation-4: -Coevolution: Evolution in which one organism causes another to change since they live in close association..
