Due to evolution, two bodily structures, found in different species, having different anatomical structures develops to perform a similar purpose in each organism indicates analogous structures.
What is evolution?
- "Evolution is the change in the characteristics of a species over several generations and relies on the process of natural selection."
- This results in formation of new species.
What is anatomical structure?
- "An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings."
- The anatomical structures include: vestigial (structure not in use reduces in size over the time), homologous (same structures having, different function) and analogous structure.
What is analogous structure?
- The two structures from different origin developed in same directions for adaptation to same needs are called analogous structure i.e., different structure develops to perform a same function.
The feathered limbs of one species and the wings of another perform same function i.e., helps them to fly.
Hence, the correct option is C- analogous structures.
