Two species have homologous structures what do these homologous strcutures show about the evolutionary relationship between the two species?
The presence of homologous structures (for example, the bone structure in chimpanzee arms, human arms, and whale flippers) indicates that the species sharing that homologous structure share a common ancestor.
Does homologous mean that structures are similar due to having common ancestry?
homologous structures- same structure/different functions in common ancestors analogous structures-same functions/differnt structures not in common ancestors vestigial-show evolutionary history/structures that arent used anymore (i.e. human appendix/human tailbone)
What is a term that describes body parts of different organisms that are similar in form?
Homologous structures are body parts of different organisms that have a similar form, suggesting a common evolutionary origin. These structures may serve different functions in each organism but share a common ancestry.
Human arm is homologous with?
the leg of a horse
Which set of structures are homologous?
A hydrocarbon that possesses one double bond belongs to the next homologous series called alkenes.
What structure describes scientists believe human arms and whale flippers were inherited from a common ancestor?
Homologous add Perhaps to a human's foot.
What is a sentence using the word homologous?
The homologous is the study of animals.

Similar structures that related species have inherited from a common ancestor are called structures?
Homologous structures.
Does homologous mean that structures are similar due to having common ancestry?
homologous structures- same structure/different functions in common ancestors analogous structures-same functions/differnt structures not in common ancestors vestigial-show evolutionary history/structures that arent used anymore (i.e. human appendix/human tailbone)
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 Similar structures that related species inherited from a common ancestor are?
Homologous structures.
How would you use homologous structure in a sentence?
I learned about homologous and heterozygous structures in Biology.
What is homologous structures?
A structure with similar shape but a different use
What term refers to similar structures that relate to species have inherited from common ancestors?
homologous structures (correct answer, your response)
What are structures that have different functions in different species but develop from the same embryonic tissue?
Homologous structures are anatomical structures that share a common evolutionary origin, but may have different functions in different species. These structures develop from the same embryonic tissue and demonstrate evolutionary relationships between species. An example is the forelimbs of vertebrates, which have different functions such as wings in birds, flippers in whales, and arms in humans.
What are similar structures inheirited from an ancestor?
homologous structures
