Question
value: 4
homologous structures have the same
a. bone structure
b. function
c. organs
d. all of the above
Homologous structures are anatomical features in different organisms that share a common evolutionary origin. They may have different functions (e.g., a human arm for grasping and a bat wing for flying) but share a similar bone structure (like the humerus, radius, ulna, etc.). They are not about having the same organs in a general sense. So, the key is the shared bone - structure (due to common ancestry), not necessarily the same function or all - of - the - above.
