Difference between Australia (continent) and Parallel evolution

Australia (continent) vs. Parallel evolution

The continent of Australia, sometimes known in technical contexts by the names Sahul, Australinea or Meganesia to distinguish it from the country of Australia, consists of the land masses which sit on Australia's continental shelf. Parallel evolution is the development of a similar trait in related, but distinct, species descending from the same ancestor, but from different clades.

Similarities between Australia (continent) and Parallel evolution

Australia (continent) and Parallel evolution have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bird, Gondwana, Mammal, Marsupial, Placentalia, Richard Dawkins.

Bird

Birds, also known as Aves, are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton.

Mammal

Mammals are the vertebrates within the class Mammalia (from Latin mamma "breast"), a clade of endothermic amniotes distinguished from reptiles (including birds) by the possession of a neocortex (a region of the brain), hair, three middle ear bones, and mammary glands.
