Answer:

Prokaryotic flagella are analogous to eukaryotic flagella-like structures

Explanation:

Beyond that they have the same function, flagella from prokaryotes have very little in common with flagella from eukaryotic organisms. Eukaryotic flagella are composed of microtubules. On the other hand, bacterial flagella are composed of polymers of flagellin, which is another unrelated protein. Homologous structures indicate the existence of a common origin (common ancestry), and it is not the case.
