A student commenting Carrot, beet root and
potato are analogous organs. His comment is
correct or incorrect? If it is correct, give
justification for his comment.
Answers
Explanation:
Radish, carrot and sweet potato have a common origin, that is they have common ancestory. The structures which are similar in origin but perform different functions are homologous structures or organs. These all are roots but they also perform same function of storage of food. If we study them apart from their common structure, common ancestory or common origin, at molecular level the term homology describes the DNA or proteins that share a common evolutionary origin. Although they perform the same functions but in all other aspects of homology, it is correct to call them homologous in general terms but at molecular level these are Orthologous structures.

His comments are correct that carrot beetroot and potato are analogous organs
Explanation:
- Organs can be divided into two types based on their developmental phase. When two or more organs or vegetables have the same function or stucture in the adult but were developed differently in their developmental phase, they are said to be homologous pairs
- similarly organs which are developed together in their embryonic phase but later on they perform different function in the adult individual are known as analogous organs.
