Evolución convergente: ¿Por qué son iguales especies diferentes?

The video explores the concept of convergent evolution, where unrelated species develop similar traits due to similar environmental pressures. It contrasts this with divergent evolution, where species with a common ancestor evolve different traits. Various examples, such as palm trees, ichthyosaurs, and Tasmanian tigers, illustrate these concepts. The video also delves into molecular and genetic factors, discussing how similar genetic sequences can lead to convergent traits. It concludes with a discussion on the limitations of evolution and the potential for similar life forms to evolve under similar conditions.
