Answer:
Homologous Organs: These are the organs which have same or similar structures but different functions.
Analogous Organs: These are the organs having similar functions but different structures.
According to the question, both, the wings of butterfly and the wings of bat are used for the purpose of flying. Hence we can clearly see that the function of both the organs is same. But we know the Butterfly and Bats represent different structures from each other. Hence they have different structure of wings.
Therefore the given pair is a set of analogous organs.
Examples of Analogous Organs:
- Wings of Birds and Wings of Insects
- Limbs of Animals and Limbs of Humans
