Answer:

Vestigiality is the retention during the process of sexual reproduction of genetically determined structures or attributes that have lost some or all of their ancestral function in a given species. Assessment of the vestigiality must generally rely on comparison with homologous features in related species.

Vestigial organs are organs of the body which are smaller and simpler than those in related species. They have lost, or almost lost their original feature. ... But one type of snake – the boas – have vestigial rear legs and pelvis. The human vermiform appendix is another example.
