Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -homology, in biology, similarity of the structure, physiology, or development of different species of organisms based upon their descent from a common evolutionary ancestor.
Detailed explanation-2: -Because the DNA sequence determines a protein’s amino acid sequence, a gene shared by two closely related organisms should have similar, or even identical, amino acid sequences.
Detailed explanation-3: -Homologous features If two or more species share a unique physical feature, such as a complex bone structure or a body plan, they may all have inherited this feature from a common ancestor. Physical features shared due to evolutionary history (a common ancestor) are said to be homologous.
