Detailed explanation-2: -Homologous structures are similar physical features in organisms that share a common ancestor, but the features serve completely different functions. An example of homologous structures are the limbs of humans, cats, whales, and bats.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct answer is analogous organs. The organs that have different basic structures (or different basic designs) but have a similar appearance and perform similar functions are called analogous organs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Organs that have the same internal structure but perform different functions are called homologous organs.
