- A vertebrate is distinguished by the presence of a cranium and vertebrate. They have a brain with two regions, and paired sensory structure. Vertebrates are not an important large-bodies predator and are only herbivores in terrestrial environments. true or false?arrow_forwardMammals have a particularly good sense of earing thanks to their inner ear which includes three tiny bones. Reptiles, in contrast, have a single inner ear bone. The lower jaw of reptiles is composed of multiple bones while the lower jaw of mammals is a single bone. Fossil and developmental evidence indicate that the inner ear bones of mammals evolved from lower jawbones. This suggests that the inner ear bones of mammals are Mammal skull, including ear bones eardrum Reptile skull, including ear bone eardrum Oa transitional trait a vestigial structure a living fossil an exaptation an analogy MacBook Air DII DD F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F7 F8 F9 F10 FV 23 24 % & 3 4. 6 7 8 U D F G H J K ~の * 00 O OOarrow_forwardAll the following are general anatomical similarities for MOST primates, EXCEPT: O Opposable thumbs O Nails instead of claws O Postorbital bar only (not having a full boney eye enclosure) O Shorter snouts O Forward facing eyesarrow_forward
