Why do the desert cactus and euphorb look and act similar, even though they live in entirely separate places of the world?

They have convergently adapted/evolved under similar environmental conditions (i.e. dry desert conditions). but are not considered homologous because they have arisen independently of each other.

If you consider it ecology then it's Part 1 of this event according to the rulebook.

But yeah, it's very evolutionary bio-ish which doesn't seem to be in the flavor of this event.

Yeah, I realize that isn't a great question for this event. Wasn't there a trial event about evolution?

Anyway, that was the answer I was looking for , your turn!

Oops, sorry about the delay!

Bernard's answer was more or less what I was looking for, but you could always type out a response synthesized from those two great links, too
Your turn!
