When adaptative characteristics of a species are insufficient to allow its survival, what happens to the species?

If I wanted to look at DNA to study evolution, I am using what evidence?

Many different groups of organisms have wings, even though they do not share a recent common ancestor. This is because they evolved in environments with similar selective pressures. Wings are an example of a(n) ______________ structure.
