Answer:

The correct answer would be B) homologous.

Homologous organs refer to the set of organs which have different appearance and function but share common anatomy due to common ancestry.

For example, the forearm of human, forelimb of the horse, wing of a bat, wings of birds, and seal's flipper share common underlying anatomy. They are made up of same sets of bones (humerus, radius, ulna, carpels, metacarpals, and phalanges).

These organs are adapted to perform different functions in an environment.

It is also observed that these organs developed in the same manner in the embryo and from similar origins.
