Pendactyl Limb Is  Homologous Structure Similar Bone Arrangements

The pendactyl limb is a homologous structure, meaning it has a similar bone arrangement across different species but is adapted for different methods of locomotion (e.g., human hand, bird wing, horse hoof, whale fin).

The pendactyl limb is a homologous structure, showing similar bone arrangements across different species but adapted for various modes of locomotion, such as in human hands, bird wings, horse hooves, and whale fins.
