The leg of the horse is a homologous structure to the human forearm. Characteristics that overlap both in form and genetically are referred to as homologous structures. The similarities stem from evolutionary paths that are similar. As shown in the next image, the bones in the wings of bats and birds, the arms of humans, and the front leg of a horse are homologous structures.
