Answer: Vestigial organs are organs that are reduced and non-functional in an organism but were well developed and functional in its ancestors (or are functional in related animals).

Examples in man: vermiform appendix, nictitating membrane (plica semilunaris), coccyx, wisdom teeth and ear muscles. They are evidence of organic evolution.
