Which of the following shows Analogy:
a)Potato, onion
b)ginger,turmeric
c)onion, ginger
d)radish,ginger
Hi,
Structures which have similar function, but are different in structure and developmental origin are called analogous structures.
Out of the given choices, potato-onion and ginger-onion are analogous because they are modified stems and perform the function of food storage.
Radish-ginger are also analogous because although radish is a root and ginger is a modified stem but perform the same function of food storage.
Ginger-turmeric are homologous structures.
