Both plants and animals of many sorts show remarkable changes in form, structure, growth habits and even mode of reproduction in becoming adapted to different climatic environment, types of food supply, of mode of living. This divergence in reponse to evolution is commonly expressed by altering the form and function of some part or parts of the organism, the original identity of which is clearly discernible. For example, the creeping foot of the snail is seen in related marine pteropods to be modified into flapping organ useful for swimming, and is changed into prehensile arms that bear suctorial disks are the squids and other cephalopods. The limbs of various mammals are modified according to several different modes of life for swift running (cursorial) as in the horse, for flying (Volant) as in the bats, for swimming (aquatic) as in the sea is whales and dolphins. The structures or that show the main change in connection with this adaptive alteration thus, the finger and wrist bones of bats and whale, for instance, have virtually nothing in common except that they are definitely equivalent elements of the mammalian limb.
