Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 6: Evolution Adaptive Radiation and Biological Evolution
Adaptive radiation describes rapid diversification of single ancestor into many forms exploiting different ecological niches, driven by ecological opportunity, such as Darwin's finches evolving varied beaks for seeds, insects and cactus, or cichlids in African lakes. It involves divergent evolution, morphological innovation and often occurs after colonization or mass extinction. Homologous structures reflect common ancestry. Classic example illustrates Diversification from a common ancestor as diversification from common ancestor into distinct niches. This concept integrates genetics, ecology and molecular evidence, frequently tested in NEET, GATE and CSIR-NET, highlighting links between genotype, phenotype and environment.

Adaptive radiation reflects key principle in quiz on section a solved pyqs, where evolutionary mechanisms shape genetic variation and adaptation. In this context, Adaptive radiation aligns with experimental and theoretical evidence from population genetics, behavioral ecology and molecular phylogeny. Textbooks like Campbell Biology, Futuyma Evolution and Hartl Principles illustrate supporting data. Understanding why Adaptive radiation fits helps integrate natural selection, environment.
