Respuesta :

The answer to this question is B. The tentacles of an octopus and the limbs of a lizard are analogous to one another. They cannot be homologous since the traits were not inherited from a common ancestor. Instead, the organisms had developed these traits independently from the common ancestry. That is why the two traits are considered analogies.

The answer to this question is B.
