The phrase "evolved extensively" is correct and can be used in written English.
It means that something has developed or changed greatly or significantly over time. It can be used in a variety of contexts, such as describing scientific or technological advancements, societal or cultural changes, or personal growth and development. Example: Over the past few decades, technology has evolved extensively, completely transforming the way we communicate and access information.
Opisthobranchs probably arose from an unknown group of primitive prosobranchs and have evolved extensively into different lines showing a reduction of the visceral hump and shell.
Since the construction of the first modern railway bridge in the 1820s, railway bridge engineering has evolved extensively.
The questionnaire used in the present study was based on Amrhein and Nassaji's (2010) original design and evolved extensively after three revisions (see Additional file 1: Appendix A for the questionnaire).
Insight into mechanisms that link the actions of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) to the regulation of gene expression has evolved extensively since the initial discovery of a nuclear protein known as the vitamin D receptor (VDR).
Since its emergence in 1968, influenza A (H3N2) has evolved extensively in genotype and antigenic phenotype.
The results of a 2014 study of the gill structure of an unusually well-preserved 325 million year old fossil suggested that sharks are not "living fossils", but rather have evolved more extensively than previously thought over the hundreds of millions of years they have been around.
The periplasmic domains of BvgS appear to have evolved most extensively.
The results were very similar: OR genes evolved under extensively species-specific selective pressures, and apes showed reduced purifying selection (table 2).
The reason for this deviation may be that F. noatunensis subsp. orientalis Toba04 has evolved more extensively after its transformation into an intracellular pathogen so that most pseudogenisation events are old.
This similarity is not surprising because the divergence at which reproductive isolation evolves varies extensively between and within taxonomic groups [ 31, 32].
In both cases, the > 105-fold rate accelerations that were achieved are within 1 3 orders of magnitude of the rate enhancements reported for the best catalysts for related reactions, including catalytic antibodies (kcat/kuncat = 106 to 108) and an extensively evolved computational design (kcat/kuncat > 107).
