Explain the concept of Adaptive radiation in detail.
Dear student
Adaptive radiation is when members of a single group or lineage evolutionarily diverge into a variety of different forms. These forms are dictated by selection pressures and the use of habitats or resources. Adaptive radiation is the evolutionary divergence of members of a single lineage into a variety of different adaptive forms. Usually the adaptive forms differ in their use of resources or habitats, and this divergence happens in a relatively short interval of geological time. In short, it's the tendency of a group of animals to evolve in response to selective pressures and adapt to their environments in different ways.
Hope it works
