- structure- body parts of organisms that are similar in structure and position but different in function
- structure- body part that has lost its original function through evolution
- an adaptation in which one species looks like another species
- structure- body parts that preform a similar function but differ in structure
- selection-the process by which organisms with variations that help them survive in their environment live longer, complete better, and reproduce more than those that do not have the variations
