adult dentition การใช้
- Humans are weaned at an early age compared to the emergence of adult dentition ( MacDonald, 2007 ).
- Birth takes place after about eight months and the juvenile caecilians shed their temporary teeth and develop their adult dentition.
- Their eyes typically open after 8 11 days, with the ears erecting after 10 13 days . The eruption of adult dentition is completed after five months.
- Cockburn and Beatty also noted that, in their specimen, all teeth have erupted but the epiphyses of the bones are unfused and that it probably was an subadult; from which they concluded that the adult dentition was not delayed in " Behemotops ", unlike " Desmostylus " and other Afrotheria, and that delayed dentition can not be the most primitive state of Desmostylia.
- They noted that ( 1 ) the cranial features of their specimen were similar to those of " Cornwallius " and that ( 2 ) the adult dentition was not delayed in their specimen, unlike in " Desmostylus " and other Afrotheria, and they concluded that ( 1 ) Desmostylidae and Paleoparadoxiidae probably diverged earlier than previously believed and that ( 2 ) delayed dentition can not be the most primitive state of Desmostylia.
