Analogous organs - having the same function but different evolutionary origin.
e.g. - The wings in flying animals like bats, birds, and insects.
Homologous organs - having the same evolutionary origin but different function.
e.g. - : The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog.
Fossils - Any preserved evidence of life from a past geological age, such as the impressions and remains of organisms embedded in stratified rocks.
e.g. - bones, shells, exoskeletons, stone imprints of animals or microbes, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA remnants.

Homologous organ and analogous organ are the characteristics which can be used to find how close two species are in evolutionary terns.
