Yucca flowers are a certain shape so only that the tiny yucca moth can pollinate them. The moths lay their eggs in the yucca flowers and the larvae (caterpillars) live in the developing ovary and eat yucca seeds. Both species depend on the other for survival. Which type of evolution, Co-evolution, Divergent, Adaptive Radiation , Convergent , or Punctuated Equilibrium is BEST represented by these two organisms ? Justify your answer

The two organisms displayed what is known as co-evolution.

Co-evolution

It is the reciprocal changes that take place in organisms of different species based on how they interact with each other.

Since yucca flowers and yucca moth change in response to changes in either one of them, they are said to co-evolve.

Co-evolution is a process that takes place gradually, over a long period of time. Without co-evolving, one of the two interacting organisms suffers and may end up going extinct or find another way to adapt.
