Parallel evolution is the similar development of a trait in distinct species that are not closely related, but share a similar original trait in response to similar evolutionary pressure.
Parallelism is the philosophical theory that mental and physical events are perfectly coordinated by God; so that when a mental event occurs, a corresponding physical effect occurs as well, in the absence of a direct cause-effect relation between mind and body.
In the philosophy of mind, psychophysical parallelism is the theory that mental and bodily events are perfectly coordinated, without any causal interaction between them.
In grammar, parallelism, also known as parallel structure or parallel construction, is a balance within one or more sentences of similar phrases or clauses that have the same grammatical structure.
