Answer:

Mammals

Birds

Explanation:

The Organs which perform same function and looks but they are different in their structure from each other are called as analogous organs.

Organs are the structures that made up of two or more tissues organized to carry out a particular function.

An organ or bone that appears in different animals with same function is called homologous structure.

Homologous organs have similar origin n basic structure but perform different functions in different organisms. Analogous organs are different in basic structure but perform same functions.

Different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related.

Examples

The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar sharing common traits.

The forelimbs of all mammals have the same basic bone structure.The structures are similar because they evolved to do the same job.  For example, the wings of bats and birds.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Swim bladder

Explanation:

Swim bladder is an organ in bony fishes such as catfish that controls their buoyancy. It is also known as air bladder. The swim bladder contains  gas, mainly oxygen and functions as a hydrostatic organ.

As the fish moves in deeper water, the gas in the swim bladder is contracted which decreases the volume of swim bladder.

The orbital radius of venus is 0.72 AU. what ia this distance in kilometers?
Arturiano [62]

108 million kilometers. To solve this problem, you must perform a simple unit conversion calculation. 1 AU = 150,000,000 km is the conversion factor. Take the radius of Venus, .72 AU, and multiply it by 150,000,000 km/1 AU. You flip the conversion factor so that the units of the original distance in the numerator cancel the units in the denominator of the conversion factor. completing the calculation gives you 108,000,000 km
