Answer:
Homologous organs are those organswhich have the same basic structural design and origin but have different functions. Analogous organs are those organs which have different basic structural design and origin but have similar functions. For example, The wings of birds and insects.

Homologous structures share a similar embryonic origin. Analogous organs have a similar function. For example, the bones in a whale's front flipper are homologous to the bones in the human arm. These structures are not analogous. A butterfly or bird's wings are analogous but not homologous.
