∙ 9y agoA homologous structures are structures that share an evolutionary ancestry. An example of homologous structures would be the bones in the arms of a human, the wings of a bat, and the legs of a dog.

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!!
