What is a homogeneous structure and what are some examples

Biology
1 answer:
ycow [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A homologous structure can be described as structures present in similar and different species. These structures might not perform the same functions but are similar because they might have a common ancestor in the past.

An example of a homologous structure is the arms of a human and the wings of a bat. Although the arms of a human and the wings of a bat do not perform the same function yet they do have similarities because they have a common ancestor in the past.

What is a wave of water caused by an earthquake under the ocean
Marianna [84]

The wave is called a tsunami.

Tsunami waves are produced when a volcanic eruption or earth quake occurs in the ocean.

Tsunami waves are usually  giant waves . when they are produced far out in the ocean, they are not all that tall. What happens is that as they begin to move from far out in the ocean towards the coast, they begin getting taller and taller the depth of the sea floor reduces and the sea gets shallower and shallower. By time they reach land they may be dozens of feet high.

They also move at terrific speed especially over deep waters, almost as fast as a jet plane. They only begin to slow down as they approach land but even then the speed is still tremendous.
