vestigial organs are the those organs in human body which are no longer to be use as functioning ... mean to say they are only present in body but dont have any significant role...
for example.... caecum , appendix ,tail bone & nictitating membrane
for birds .....rudimentary wings

Answer:
Vestigial organs:
- Vestigial organs are useless organs that are degenerated or underdeveloped due to non-functionality through several years.
- Some vestigial organs in humans that are functional in other animals are as follows:
- Appendix: It is fully functional in ruminants for digestion of cellulose.
- Muscles of ear pinna: It is useful in monkeys and other animals like rabbits, cows and horses, etc. for movement of ear pinna.
- Other vestigial organs include the tail-bone, body hairs, wisdom tooth, etc.
