Answer: it is not made by a geologic process  

Explanation:

A mineral is any substance or compound which is generated by the geological processes under the surface of earth crust. It is typically inorganic and is not produced by any of the biological process or by the use of any biological agent. They are formed by the solidification and crystallization of magma after the volcanic activities.

The table sugar is not a mineral because it is composed of an ingredient which comes from a biological source that is sugarcane. The formation of sugar crystals from the sugarcane juice is a chemical process. It does not follow geological processes.

Homologous structures provide evidence for common ancestry, while analogous structures show that similar selective pressures can produce similar adaptations (beneficial features). Similarities and differences among biological molecules (e.g., in the DNA sequence of genes) can be used to determine species' relatedness.
