Answer:

The scaly skin of a snake is <em>homologous</em> to skin of a lizard.

Explanation:

Homologous means usually arranging the same or allelic genes with a genetic loci in the same order. Also,  born or raised in response to the same species of organism.

The term homologous is derived from the Greek 'homos' which means one and 'logos'. So, literally, it means the same relationship. To make this a bit clearer, we can say that this means a similar relative position, structure, function or origin. However, this definition is still somewhat broad and vague. This is because the term 'homologous' is used in biology in many different fashion.
