Answer:

Mammals

Birds

Explanation:

The Organs which perform same function and looks but they are different in their structure from each other are called as analogous organs.

Organs are the structures that made up of two or more tissues organized to carry out a particular function.

An organ or bone that appears in different animals with same function is called homologous structure.

Homologous organs have similar origin n basic structure but perform different functions in different organisms. Analogous organs are different in basic structure but perform same functions.

Different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related.

Examples

The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar sharing common traits.

The forelimbs of all mammals have the same basic bone structure.The structures are similar because they evolved to do the same job.  For example, the wings of bats and birds.

Answer:

luteinizing hormone (LH) is mainly used to induce ovulation.

Explanation:

Ovulation refers to the release of an egg.During menstruation  ovarian follicle discharges an egg.The egg is also known as an ovum, oocyte, or female gamete. It is only released on reaching maturity.

Ovulation induction uses hormonal therapy to stimulate egg development and release egg or ovulate.

By increasing the production of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) by the pituitary gland, follicles are stimulated and hence egg growth is seen.

A surge in the Luteinizing hormone (LH) causes the egg to release or ovulate. Luteinizing hormone (LH) is produced and released in the anterior pituitary gland. This hormone is a gonadotrophic hormone and plays an important role in controlling the function of ovaries in females and testes in males.

In women, the hormone stimulates the ovaries to produce oestradiol. Two weeks into a woman's cycle, a surge in luteinizing hormone causes the ovaries to release an egg during ovulation. If fertilization occurs, luteinizing hormone will stimulate the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone to sustain the pregnancy.
