Question

explain the term analogous and homologous organs with example

Answer 1

Analogous organs are the opposite of homologous organs, which have similar functions but different origins. An example of ananalogous trait would be the wings of insects, bats and birds that evolved independently in each lineage separately after diverging from an ancestor without wings. .........

Homology in Animals. Organs such as bat's wing, wings of birds, seal's flipper, forelimb of a horse, and human arm have a common underlying anatomy that was present in their last common ancestors; therefore their forelimbs are homologous organs. .......Following are some examples of homology: The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar and share common traits. I hope it's help you......

Explanation:

Homologus organs are those organs which have the same basic structural design and origin but have different functions.

For Example: The forelimbs of humans and the wings of birds look different externally but their skeletal structure is similar.

Analogus organs are those organs which have the different basic structural design and origin but have similar functions.

For Example: The wings of birds and insects.
