The female structure that corresponds to the male penis is the?
The female structure that is homologous to the testes are the ovaries in females. Both function in the production of gametes.
Anatomical structures that appear to be derived from a functional structure in an ancestor but that currently do not serve an important function are called?
homologous structures
What term describes parts of organisms that have a similar function but not a similar structure?
Homologous Structures
Analogous and homologous?
1. HOMOLOGOUS ( morphological and anatomical evidences ) .These are the organs that have same basic structural plan and origin but different functions. 2. ANALOGOUS These are the organs that have different origin and structure plan but same function
An example of a homologous structure?
Examples of Homologous Structure: Rodent teeth Hooves in species of camels, goats, sheep and cattle Hands and feet in primates Bird feathers Shark morphology
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.
A type of homologous structure that remains in an organism through evolution but no longer serves any biological function?
Vestigial structure
What is the relationship between homologous structure and analogous structure?
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.
The female structure that corresponds to the male penis is the?
The female structure that is homologous to the testes are the ovaries in females. Both function in the production of gametes.
Define homologous structures?
homologous structures is same structure,different function
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
Anatomical structures that appear to be derived from a functional structure in an ancestor but that currently do not serve an important function are called?
homologous structures
What term describes parts of organisms that have a similar function but not a similar structure?
Homologous Structures
Analogous and homologous?
1. HOMOLOGOUS ( morphological and anatomical evidences ) .These are the organs that have same basic structural plan and origin but different functions. 2. ANALOGOUS These are the organs that have different origin and structure plan but same function
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
How are analogous and homologous structures different?
They are different because homologous structures have the same structure, but serve a different function. Like mammal arms(human, bat and whales). Analogous structues are different structures, but serve the same function. For example, bat wings and butterfly wings.
Structures that have similar structure and function but different evolutionary origins are called?
It is either homologous structures or homozygous structures. Embryological structures are when different species of animals look similar in the earliest stage of development and Analogous structures are when animals look different but their function is basically the same. So just look up homologous structures and homozygous structures in your Bio book!!
