Co-evolution is...

• When two or more species evolve alongside humans.

• When two or more species evolve alongside a good environment.

• When two or more species evolve alongside each other.

• When two or more species evolve alongside their offspring.

Flowering plants and pollinating insects are an example of...

• Natural Selection

• Common Ancestry

• Genetic Variation

• Co-Evolution

When a species splits into different groups with different environmental changes....

• They will evolve and develop different forms

• They will change their environment to suit them.

• They will decrease in population and develop the same form.

• They will change their genetics immediately to adapt with their environment.
