Morphology compares structural features; pros include related species sharing similar morphology (homologous), but cons are unrelated organisms appearing similar due to selective pressure (analogous).
A morfologia compara características estruturais; vantagens incluem que espécies relacionadas podem ter morfologia semelhante (homóloga), mas desvantagens são que organismos não relacionados podem parecer semelhantes devido à pressão seletiva (análoga).
