Species with homologous structures most likely:
A. are not closely related through evolution.
B. use it for the same function.
C. used to use the structure at one time but don't anymore.
D. share a common ancestor.

Respuesta :

Groups with homologous characters share a common ancestor. These characters have the same embryological development, although their function might vary. Option D. share a common ancestor.

What is a homologous character?

Homologous characters are structures with the same basic elements.

Their position in the body and the relations with adjacent structures are also the same in different organisms, and they even share the same embryological development.

These structures might show variations between the organisms exhibiting them. Variations might be related to their function and to the environment in which the organism lives. The function they accomplish is not necessarily the same in all the organisms involved.

These homologous characters are present in organisms related that share a common ancestor.

For example, whales, humans, and cats all have the same bones in the same order, but they matured differently in later embryological development.

The correct option is then option D. Species with homologous structures most likely share a common ancestor.

Species with more likely homologous structures share a common ancestor.

  • D. share a common ancestor.

What are example homologous structures?

The most correct definition for homology would be: They are structures of individuals, of different species or not, that were inherited from a common ancestor. The human arm is homologous to the horse's front leg. The bat's wing is homologous to the whale fin.

With this information, we can conclude that homologous  have same embryological origin of structures from different organisms, and these structures may or may not have the same function
