"Dave", the feathered lizard fossil is thought of as a(n)<u> </u><u>homologous</u> species, or an organism that may represent a common ancestor shared by different but related lineages of organisms.
<h3>What is homologous evolution?</h3>
Homologous evolution is similarity of the structure, physiology, or development of different species of organisms based upon their descent from a common evolutionary ancestor.
Homologous structures include the human arm, a bird or bat's wing, a dog's leg, a dolphin or whale's flipper, and the wing of a bird or a bat. They are distinct and serve different purposes, although they are comparable and have similar characteristics. They are regarded as homologous structures because their underlying anatomies are comparable.

Smooth muscles are also called visceral muscles because they are mostly found surrounding the different organs of the body. These muscles serve as cushion or protections for organs that are mostly found within the abdominal cavity. Unlike skeletal muscles, this muscles move involuntarily, or on their own. They are composed of bundles of specialized cells capable of contracting and relaxing to create movements, like the process of the small and large intestines during digestion, and the function of the rectum during excretion. </span>
