It means they are the same.
Homologous chromosomes (also called homologs or homologues) are chromosome pairs of approximately the same length, centromere position, and staining pattern, with genes for the same characteristics at corresponding loci. One homologous chromosome is inherited from the organism's mother; the other from the organism's father.

What is a result if a species have homologous chromosomes?

What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
What can homologous chromosomes be called?

How many homologous pairs of chromosomes does a diploid human cell have?
A human gamete does not have any pairs of homologous chromosomes. A single human gamete contains 23 chromosomes, or a half set. None of these chromosomes are homologous with each other.
How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are found in human body cells?
Human cells have 23 homologous pairs. They also must go through meiosis before that. Females have 2 X chromosomes, while Males have an X and a Y chromosome. That's why the males cells decide the gender of the child.
Chromosomes come in pairs known as what?
Homologous chromosomes

What is so special about pairs of homologous chromosomes?
Nothing
