Formic acid yields acridine, and the higher homologues give derivatives substituted at the meso carbon atom, FIG.
They are of importance, since the higher homologues are identical in many cases with the ptomaines produced by the putrefactive action of some bacteria on albumen and other related substances.
Acridine and its homologues are very stable compounds of feebly basic character.
Spencer seems to deny serial homology to the mollusca, but it is difficult to see why the shell segments of chiton are not such homologues because the segmentation is superficial.
Examples of such homologues are the ribs, or joints of the backbone of{160} a horse, or the limbs of a centipede.
Serial homologues so formed might be called, as Mr. Ray Lankester has proposed, "homoplastic.
The homologuesof the other eight pieces of the vertebra must accordingly be sought in the external appendages.

He considered that the mandibles and first maxillæ of Arthropods were the homologues of the upper and lower jaws of Vertebrates, adducing as confirmatory evidence the fact that in snakes the rami are separate.
Cuvier held, for example, that many of the muscles and even the bones of fish were peculiar to them, and without homologues in the other Vertebrates, having been created by Nature for special ends.

The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "homologues" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
