Chapter 26.2, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To find: Identify close relation of A, B, and C species.
Introduction: Analogy is similar function and apparent structures with in respect to varied origins. Homology is shared ancestry existing between pair of structures or gene under variety of taxa.
