Divergent evolution is process, where the same structure develpp along different directions in different organism due to adaptation to different needs. Divergent evolution leads to the development of homologous structure. As they all have same anatomical structure and origin, but perform different functions. Example: The thorns of Bougainvillea and tendrils of Cucurbita are homologous organs as both of them are modified axillary buds. Which perform different function.
