hello dear

(if you like my ans. plzzzz mark me as brainileast )

This answer is best understood in terms of ancestry and function. Analogous structureshave 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. A dolphin’s flipper, a human arm and the leg of a cat are examples of homologous structures. Analogous structures represent convergent evolution, where natural selection drives species to have the most efficient and practical structures for specific functions.

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.
