Answer:

The correct answer is D) Convergent evolution.

Explanation:

Even though between flies and beetles it could be considered as a homology, between such insects and deers it's absolutely a convergence. Homologies are comparable characters between taxons that could have evolved from a common ancestor that had these structures. The common ancestor between insects and deers is really far in the phylogeny so the structure is not comparable.
