What is a homologous structure and what does it show?
== == Homologous provide evidence for evolution because it shows the similarities and how we evolved from the same ancestors
Homologous structures in organisms suggest that the organisms?
share a common ancestor. These structures are similar in form and function but may have evolved to serve different purposes in different species due to natural selection. The presence of homologous structures supports the theory of evolution.
Chromosomes come in pairs known as what?
Homologous chromosomes
What are two sets of chromosomes that code for the same trait called?
Homologous chromosomes.
Know whether or not gametes have homologous chromosomes?
Gametes are said to have homologous chromosomes, if they have same genes arranged in same order. During gamete formation meiosis precedes, therefore, individual gamete does not have its homologous counterpart. After fertilization, in diploid nucleus, homologous chromosomes are restored.

Why are the forelimbs of a cat a bat and a whale homologous structures?
This supports it because they come from one specie which led to many would. Led to the theory of evolution
Homologous structures in organisms suggest that the organisms?

What is the definition of homologous?
Homologous means similar to but not the same thing, as a squirrel's foreleg is homologous to a human's arm.
How do homologous structures support the theory that many earth species are related?
Homologous structures are anatomical features in different species that share a common ancestry, despite serving different functions. For example, the forelimbs of humans, whales, and bats have similar bone structures, indicating that these species evolved from a shared ancestor. This similarity in structure, despite evolutionary divergence, supports the theory of common descent and suggests that many species on Earth are related through evolutionary processes. Thus, homologous structures provide evidence of evolutionary relationships among diverse organisms.
Body parts similar in origin and structure are what?
homologous
How would you use homologous structure in a sentence?
I learned about homologous and heterozygous structures in Biology.
How many possible homologous chromosome alignments are there?
There are 2n possible homologous chromosome alignments, where n is the number of homologous pairs of chromosomes.
Are sex chromosomes homologous in humans?
Yes, sex chromosomes are homologous in humans.
What are the matching pairs of chromosomes in the diploid cell called?
They are called homologous chromosomes (but can also be referred to as homologues or homologs).
Are homologous chromosomes present in both mitosis and meiosis?
Yes, homologous chromosomes are present in both mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up, while in meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up during prophase I.
What is a sentence using the word homologous?
The homologous is the study of animals.
