Question

In what way do homologous organs provide evidence in favour of evolution?

Answer 1

Homologous organs:Organs which have common fundamental anatomical plan and similar embryonic origin ,whatever varied function they may perform are regarded as homologous organs.
.This type of evolution is called divergent evolution.
.For example forelimb of a whale,wing of bat,leg of cheetah,claw of mole and hand of a man.
They indicate that all the vertebrates are evolved from common ancestors and at the same time gives the information about evolution .
