Answer:

The main difference between homologous structures and vestigial structures is that homologous structures are the similar anatomical structures inherited from a common ancestor whereas vestigial structures are the anatomical structures which have reduced their size as they are no longer used.

Homologous structures and vestigial structures are two types of anatomical structures described based on their evolutionary history. The limbs of mammals is an example of homologous structures while two vestigial structures include human tail bone, whale pelvis, etc.
