4. Stages in the development are similar. 4. Stages in the development are different.
5.Example: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 structure. 5.Example: Analogous structures range from wings in flying animals like bats, birds, and insects, to fins in animals like penguins and fish
