Structure with different origin but same function?

An example of structures with different origin but same function is the wings of a bird and the wings of a butterfly. These structures have evolved independently in birds and insects to serve the same function of flying, but they have different origins in terms of their underlying anatomical structures and developmental pathways.


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!!


What is the difference between homologous structures and analogous structures?

Homologous = same origin, different function (arms vs. wings) Analogous = same function, different origin (panda thumb)


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.


What are solids with the same chemical composition but different structures are called?

These compounds are called isomers.


Define homologous structures?

homologous structures is same structure,different function


What are simple sugars that have the same formula but different chemical structures called?

Isomers


Is Enzyme have same function called as?

Enzymes have the same function as catalysts. Except, the mode of action is markedly different.


What are compounds with the same simple formula but different 3-dimensional structures called?

Isomer's


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.


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


What is a homologous sturcture?

Homologous structures are the same body parts found in different species that look different and do different things that are also made of the same thing ex. the human forearm and the wing of a bird are composed of the same bones however have a completely different appearance and function.
