This is an example of developmental homology. Studying embryological development of living things provides clues to the evolution of present-day organisms. During some stages of development, organisms exhibit ancestral features in whole or incomplete form. Homologous structures are those structures whose underlying similarity arises from their being derived from a common ancestral origin while analogous structure are those whose similarity comes from their performing of a similar function.

This type of galaxy is an approximately ellipsoidal shape and a smooth, nearly featureless image. they are the largest single star systems, in the universe and are built by the collisions of many smaller galaxies.
