Humans and apes have five fingers they can use to grasp objects. Do you think these are analogous or homologous structures

Biology
1 answer:
Ann [662]4 years ago
6 0
Human and apes have 5 fingers that are used for grasping objects, so they have the same function, but they also have a common ancestor and are closely related, that means that this is an example of homologous structures. In evolutionary biology, the term homologous structures means that there are organs and skeletal elements of animals and organisms, that by virtue of their similarity, suggest their connection to a common ancestor.

Solute means the substances which get dissolved by another one, Ex: salt. On the other hand, Solvent refers the substance which dissolves. Ex: Water. To get dissolved in solvent, the particles present in solute move away.

It is possible only when the attractive force between solute and solvent are greater than binding force of solute and solvent.  Separation and mixing up with solvent particles, in general, called as solvatation.
