Q. What is common to whale, seal and shark?

A) thick subcutaneous fat
B) convergent evolution
C) homoiothermy
D) seasonal migration
Explanation

[Solution from source] Whale and seal are mammals and the shark is a fish, yet all have streamlined bodies and flippers or fins for aquatic life; this similarity in unrelated groups is convergent evolution. Shark is cold-blooded and lacks blubber, so homoiothermy and subcutaneous fat do not apply to all three. Answer (2).
