Question

Explain with an example for the given, how the following provides evidence in favor of evolution in organisms :

Analogous organs

Solution

Analogous organs:- Organs which have different basic structure but the similar appearance and perform similar functions are called analogous organs.

Example:- The wings of an insect and a bird have different structures, but they perform the same function of flying. Because the wings of insects and birds have different structures but perform similar functions, they are analogous organs.
