Answer:

A. the wings of bees and birds

Step-by-step explanation:

A homologous trait is a trait that is similar morphologically and genetically to one another due to their shared ancestry. This means that the traits are formed from the same ancestors, hence, they are homologous or similar.

According to this question, the wings of bees and birds are homologous because they share the same ancestry.
