Question

different between homologous and analogous​

Answer 1

Answer:

Analogous structures have different evolutionary ancestries but they have the same function. Examples of these types of structures are the wings of birds, bats and insects. Homologous structures are the opposite; they have similar ancestries and common traits but maybe not have the same function in an organism.
