Answer:

The development of wings on a fly, a moth, and a bird are analogous because they developed independently as adaptations to perform the common function of flying.

Explanation:

Homologous feature in different organisms refers to the feature that is similar in different organisms that have similar embryonic origin and development and inherited that feature from a common ancestor that also had that feature. The presence of four limbs in tetrapods such as crocodiles, birds, mice, etc is an example of a homologous feature, where they inherited that feature as their ancestor had four limbs.

Analogous feature in different organisms refers to the feature that is superficially similar in different organisms but had separate evolutionary origins. The wings on a fly, a moth, and a bird is an example of analogous feature. The wings were developed independently as adaptations to perform the common function of flying.
