उत्तर

Homologous organs are organs that may perform different functions in various organisms but share a similar embryonic origin, developmental pattern, and structural plan. These organs indicate a common ancestry because they have evolved from the same structure present in a common ancestor, but have diverged over time to adapt to different functions. This phenomenon is called homology.
