Homologous organs have similar embryonic origin and basic structure whereas Analogous organs have different embryonic origin and basic structure. Homologous organs may look different and may perform different function; e.g., forelimb of a man and flipper of a whale. Whereas Analogous organs look alike and perform same functions; e.g., Wings of birds and insects.
Homologous = same origin, different function (arms vs. wings) Analogous = same function, different origin (panda thumb)
analogous
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.
Homologous structures refer to structures on different species that are similar in function and their evolutionary origin. Analogous structures are similar in function but do not share a similarity in evolutionary origin.
Homologous features of animals are a lot more recent in contrast to evolution, where as analogous dates far back. Homologous features are similar in structure, but perform different functions, such as the human hands and dolphin flippers, which makes room to allow recent evolution comparisons while analogous consists of wings of a bee and a bird, which are completely different. When trying to determine evolutionary relationship between two species, biologists concentrate on homologous features, as analogous features would be considered useless in this case.
describe a chemical test you would use to show the difference between an isomer and a homologous series
they live for a while
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.
Homologous structures are any structures that have similarity and come from the same lineage. This can be seen in the forelimbs of mammals. Analogous structures are very similar but come from different ancestors. This can be seen in the North American flying squirrel vs the Australian sugar glider. They both have similar features but come from 2 different locations. In fact, the Australian sugar glider is more related to the kangaroo than the flying squirrel
