  • 2 answers

Shruti Sharma 7 years, 2 months ago

The organs which perform different functions in different species but have similar basic structure and similar embryonic origin are called homologous organs.

For eg -  1. Forelimbs of frog, lizard, humans, birds,  etc. 

2. Radish and carrot 

 

Shweta Gulati 7 years, 2 months ago

The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar and share common traits.
