In biology, homologous structures are defined as structures which serve the same purposes because they evolved from the same source (divergent evolution), the opposite of analogous structures, which serve the same purpose but evolved through convergent evolution. Birds' wings and bats' wings are both homologous and analogous. As wings, the two are analogous, but as forelimbs, the two are homologous.
