An analogy is an extended metaphor. It is used to add clarity and detail to your writing. An example of an analogy would be the following: "The stray dog was a lot like a homeless person; it showed up whenever it wanted to, it didn't look like it had bathed in weeks, and it would disappear every time I got used to it being around. On top of that, it was always begging for food, and kept on coming back for more, when I was only being nice."

A bird's wing and a bat's wing are examples of analogous adaptions to certain selection pressures in their separate but immediate environment.
