One of the examples of two analogous organs can be wings of parrot and

(a) filler of whale (b) foreleg of horse


(c) front leg of frog (d) wings of housefly

(d) wings of housefly

Analogous organs are the organs which have same functions but their origin is different. Accordingly, wings of parrot and wings of housefly have the same function of flying but their origin is different. The wings of parrot are mesodermal whereas housefly’s wings are ectodermal and supported by chitin.
