Us-The Greatest Example of Convergent Evolution Ever:



                Convergent evolution-a term we came up with and apparently its best example are none other than those who created it. As most of you probably know convergent evolution is when two species, subspecies, isolated populations etc. evolve to be similar in appearance, knowledge and habits-normally for the same reason. If you think about it Homo sapiens and other early hominids pretty much picked up around the same time-stone tools, metal working –even the bow and arrow.Even today we follow this trend ,this is particularly common in physics where two people will claim the discovery of a particle because they found it on different continents within hours of each other. For all I know someone is writing the same article right now. So I suppose this proves an old saying true-great minds think alike.
