“Homologous,” in biology, means a similarity in internal or chromosomal structures.

With internal structures, homology indicates organs that have similar positions, structures, or evolutionary origins. It’s important to note, however, that organs do not have to have the same function to be homologous.

When it comes to chromosomal structures, “homologous” is used to describe chromosomes that carry the same type of genetic material. Nonetheless, this genetic material does not have to be the same: one half comes from the mother and the other half from the father.
