Incoming links: Parallel evolution
It is quite mind blowing that this is polyphyletic on mammals and birds, what can't parallel evolution achieve??
The cool thing about parallel evolution is that it shows how complex phenotype can evolve from very different initial genetic conditions, highlighting the great power of evolution.
Basically mean that parallel evolution happened. Some cool ones:
- homeothermy: mammals and birds
- animal flight: bats, birds and insects
- multicellularity: evolved a bunch of times
