Question

Explain the terms analogous and homologous organs with examples ?​

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

Explanation:

Homologous structures share a similar embryonic origin; analogous organs have a similar function. For example, the bones in the front flipper of a whale are homologous to the bones in the human arm. These structures are not analogous. The wings of a butterfly and the wings of a bird are analogous but not homologous.
