  • Explaining Homologous, Analogous, and Vestigial.
  • What is it ? Homologous structures are parts of different organisms that are similar. This is because they have a similar or common ancestor.
  • Examples of this can be: the wing of a bat and the leg of a cat.
  • Homologous
  • What is it ? Analogous Structures are structures that have the same movement or function but not the same structure.
  • An example of this is the wing of a bat and the wing of a bird. They are both used to fly but they are not built the same.
  • Analogous
  • What is it ? Vestigial Structures are parts of an organism that are there because of their ancestors, but they don't help the organism in any way.
  • An example of this is the appendix of the human body. It is in our body because of our ancestors but it doesn't help us!
