Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

The correct answer will be- homologous structures

Explanation:

The history of how life has survived on the earth can be studied through a field of biology called evolutionary biology.

The structures in organisms which are similar in their structure are thought to have derived from a common ancestor and are known as "homologous structures. "

Thus, homologous structures are the correct answer.
