It is probably easier to write what similar bodies they have, so I myself wonder if they have analogies smile.gif

If we recall that in Biology
, "homologous" organs are called having the same origin but not necessarily the same functions,
then it becomes necessary to open the textbook of Entomology and go deeper into reading.

Yes, please. The fly's buzzes are homologous to the hind wings of dragonflies, bees, and butterflies.
