उत्तर

Arm of a human

Explanation:

The wing of a bat is homologous to the arm of a human because both have a similar underlying bone structure inherited from a common ancestor, despite serving different functions. Homologous structures indicate common ancestry, whereas analogies (e.g., bat wing and butterfly wing) arise from convergent evolution and serve similar functions but have different structural origins.
