Among the following sets of examples for divergent evolution, select the incorrect option:
Eyes of octopus and mammals are analogous (convergent).
Divergent evolution occurs in the same structure, e.g. forelimbs, heart and brain of vertebrates, which have developed along different directions due to adaptation to different needs. The eyes of octopus, bat and man are examples of analogous organs showing convergent evolution.
