One of the big concepts that explains a lot of the pattern of evolution throughout history is called "adaptive radiation." Adaptive radiation is a process in which environmental changes create new resources, challenges, and environmental niches, enabling rapid diversification of organisms from a single ancestral species. Adaptive radiation provides a sound explanation that captures the effects of the interactions among organisms on species diversification.
