Answer:
Homologous series, any of numerous groups of chemical compounds in each of which the difference between successive members is a simple structural unit.
Such series are most common among organic compounds, the structural difference being a methylene group, as in the paraffin hydrocarbons, or alkanes;
the normal primary alcohols, or 1-alkanols; and the normal carboxylic acids, or alkanoic acids. In each of these homologous series the number of methylene groups—designated by the subscript n—may have the successive values 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.

In organic chemistry, a homologous series is a sequence of compounds with the same functional group and similar chemical properties in which the members of the series can be branched or unbranched, or differ by -CH2.
