This example best describes

In an adaptive radiation, numerous related lineages arise in a relatively short time and evolve in many different directions as they adapt to different habitats or ways of life. Radiation, rather than directional trends, is perhaps the most common pattern of long-term evolution. Which statements is not true for adaptive radiation?
