Question

Very short answer type :
What is meant by analogous organs? Give one example from animals.

Answer 1

Analogous organs are those which perform the same function, have superficial resemblance to one another, but are of different origin. For example, the fins of fish and the flippers of aquatic mammals (whales and seals) perform the same function and also have a close superficial resemblance but structurally they are different.
