homologous structures
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.
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!!
Homologous = same origin, different function (arms vs. wings) Analogous = same function, different origin (panda thumb)
Isomers
Enzymes have the same function as catalysts. Except, the mode of action is markedly 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.
These compounds are called isomers.
homologous structures is same structure,different function
Isomers
Enzymes have the same function as catalysts. Except, the mode of action is markedly different.
Isomer's
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.
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
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.
