How can a bats wing be considered a homologous structure and an analogous?
They are homologous in the sense that all tetrapods share that forelimb structure. They are analogous because both bats and birds adapted flight to their local environmental conditions. One being a mammal, that has the finger extension type wing and one being aves with the full forelimb extending the wing. They have the flight in common, but not the structures, so are analogous. They have an ancestral condition leading to the similarity of forelimb structure and so are homologous.
Are the mouthparts of the two species homologous or analogous?
That depends on what two species you're referring to. Homologous parts are similar in structure and evolutionary origin, though not necessarily in function. for example: human arms and bat's wings Analogous parts, on the other hand function similarly, but may not be similar in structure or evolutionary origin. example: a butterfly's wings and birds' wings
What is Analogous traits?
corresponding in some particular way (a brain and a computer are analogous)
Birds and bees have wings are their wings homologous features or analogous features?
Analogous Features.
What are analogous characters derived from?
Analogous characters can be traced to a distant common ancestor. Although they may differ in appearance, and somewhat in function, the analogous characters (traits) developed from an earlier functional trait. (Example : fins in fish, hands and feet in humans)
How does analogous structure support evolution?
Analogous structure supports evolution because some of these structure may have existed long ago, however not all analogous structure support the same evolutionary path.
Which structure of a paramecium is analogous to a reserve copy of all the cell's genes?
Micronucleus is a structure of a paramecium that is analogous to a reserve library
What structure in the human is analogous to the cecum?
appendix
A sentence that uses analogous structure?
6y8
What is homologous organs and analogous organ?
Homologous organs have similar looking structure and similar origin but different functions . Whereas analogous is just the opposite analogous organs are those that have similar function but different origin and structure
what structure in a fish is analogous to human lungs?
gills
What is a benzenoid?
A benzenoid is a compound with an electronic structure analogous to that of benzene.
What would be the analogous structure of these fins on a human?
The pelvic fin
What are analogous structures?
Analogous structures are features of two different species that are similar in how the function, but the structure of the two features is different. The wings of an insect and the wings of a bird are analogous structures.
What does the tertiary structure of a protein tell you about the protein?
It tells us about the three dimensional structure of the protein in its folded configuration.
Is a fish fin an analogous structure to the whale flipper?
Yes it is an anologous structure since they do not have a common ancestor.
Distinguish between homologous structures and analogous structures?
Homologous structures have the internal structure, but different functions. For example the human arm, horse foreleg, bird wing, and whale flipper have similar internal skeletal structure, but different external structure because of their different functions. Analogous structures have similar external structure because of similar functions, but dissimilar internal structure. An example of analogous structures would be the wings of an insect and a bird.
