What are the difference between homologous organ and analogous organ?
Homologous organs have similar embryonic origin and basic structure whereas Analogous organs have different embryonic origin and basic structure. Homologous organs may look different and may perform different function; e.g., forelimb of a man and flipper of a whale. Whereas Analogous organs look alike and perform same functions; e.g., Wings of birds and insects.
Are Shark and dolphin fins analogous or homologous?
Analogous!
Are similarities between sharks and dolphins homologous or analogous?
analogous
Analogous and homologous?
Analogous structures are those that have similar functions but different evolutionary origins, whereas homologous structures are those that have different functions but a common evolutionary origin. For example, the wings of bats and birds are analogous structures as they serve the same function (flight) but evolved separately, while the forelimbs of humans, cats, and whales are homologous structures as they have a common evolutionary origin (from a common ancestor) but serve different functions.
What is an analogus organ?
An analogous organ is a structure in different species that serves the same function but does not share a common evolutionary origin. For example, the wings of birds and insects are analogous organs as they both serve the function of flight but evolved independently.
Is nail of a man and claw of cat homologous organ?
Yes, the nails of a man and claw of a cat are homologous organs with similar structure but performs functions differently.
Are the wings of birds and the wings of bats homologous or analogous structures?
They are both. They are homologous because they are both examples of a vertebrate forelimb. They are analogous because they were adapted for flight independently of one another.
Both homologous and analogous forms of these result from evolution?
Structures
What is the difference between vestigial homologous and analogous?

What is the difference between homologous structures and analogous structures?
Homologous = same origin, different function (arms vs. wings) Analogous = same function, different origin (panda thumb)
Is a wing of a bird homologous to the wing of a cat?
In biology, homologous structures are defined as structures which serve the same purposes because they evolved from the same source (divergent evolution), the opposite of analogous structures, which serve the same purpose but evolved through convergent evolution. Birds' wings and bats' wings are both homologous and analogous. As wings, the two are analogous, but as forelimbs, the two are homologous.
