The eye of an octopus and the eye of a cat show different patterns of structure, yet they perform similar functions. This is an example of:
1. | Homologous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution. |
2. | Homologous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution. |
3. | Analogous organs that have evolved due to convergent evolution. |
4. | Analogous organs that have evolved due to divergent evolution. |
