Homologous Organs are organs that have similar origin but they differ functionally. Axillary bud of stem gives rise to tendril of both graphevine and pumpkins so they have same origin, i.e., homologous , whereas analogus organs are organs having different origin, but perform same function . The tendril of pea arises from the leaf and helps the plant to climb. Hence, the origin of pea tendril is different but, its function is similar to the tendrils of grapevines.
