If you say you have an organism with mammary glands, we can predict it will have a complex eukaryote cell structure with organelles such as mitochondria, that it ingests other organisms for nourishment, has bilateral symmetry, an alimentary canal, a bony head at one end with an array of sense organs, vertebrae protecting a nerve cord, integument, jaw, ribs, four limbs during at least at some stage of life, neck, neocortex, endothermic, internal fertilization, four-chambered heart, lungs with alveoli and a muscular diaphragm, two eyes, three ear bones in each of two ears, hair or at least hair follicles at some stage of life, sebaceous glands, most probably will have heterodont dentition.
These are not trivial correlations, but among the most fundamental relationships in biology. |
The last time, the finale was "All that from tits." We'll see if that makes a difference. |
2 occipital condyles, a single bone in that lower jaw, pharyngeal slits during some part of the life cycle, endostyle, post-anal tail, a good bet on two sets of heterodont dentition ...
ETA: I see you got the dentition.
