Two species have homologous structures what do these homologous strcutures show about the evolutionary relationship between the two species?
The presence of homologous structures (for example, the bone structure in chimpanzee arms, human arms, and whale flippers) indicates that the species sharing that homologous structure share a common ancestor.
What are Structures in different organisms that share a common ancestry?
Homologous structure
Is structure and identical similar?

What is homologous structure that is greatly reduced in size?

What are structures that have different functions in different species but develop from the same embryonic tissue?
Homologous structures
Is a human appendix a homologous structure?
The human appendix (a small sac near the junction of the small and large intestine) is homologous to a structure called the "caecum", a large, blind chamber in which leaves and grasses are digested in many other mammals.http://scienceline.ucsb.edu/getkey.php?key=3246
How would you use homologous structure in a sentence?
I learned about homologous and heterozygous structures in Biology.
What is a homologous structure?
A structure with similar shape but a different use
What is a similar structure that related species inherit from a common ancestor?
A homologous structure.
What does it mean when dinosaurs have homologous structure?
Two samples are said to homologous, in this context, when they are both very similar in structure and shape and more than likely function.
What is the difference between morphological divergence and homologous structure?
Morphological divergence refers to how different species evolve distinct physical characteristics over time. Homologous structures are similar traits found in different species due to a common ancestor. In essence, morphological divergence can lead to differences in body structures, while homologous structures show similarities in body parts across species.
