Male platypuses have on spur on each of their back legs. Females have no spurs.
it is very difficult to explain the spur terrrain feature without a map. Either way, in topographic maps, the color brown means terrrain and it's features. those lines will form mountains, depretions, hilltops, saddles and spurs. Basicly the spur will be the side of the hill forming a line with two sides until it reaches the flat terrrain. That line in the middle of the spur is the ridge.
A platypus's burrow generally has either one or two entrances.
More than one platypus is two or more platypuses. The plural is not 'platypi'.
The echidna does not have spikes; it has spines, in numbers of between 5,000 and 10,000.
There are two misconceptions in this question. First, there are no egg-laying marsupials. All marsupials give live birth. Second, there are numerous venomous mammals. Many species of shrew, as well as the Cuban Solenodon, are venomous mammals. The only egg-laying mammal that is venomous is the platypus, which ejects venom through a hollow spur on each ankle. Only maturemales have spurs and can eject venom. The platypus is a monotreme, not a marsupial. Monotremes are egg-laying mammals.
It's a rooster spur! Look for the white rooster inside the clear marble.
A platypus has two eyes.
The platypus is not a hodgepodge; it is an animal with some remarkable adaptations. It is one of only two types of mammals to lay eggs instead of giving birth to live young. (The other type is the echidna.) The platypus's appearance is also unusual - it has a duck-like bill, a sleek and streamlined otter-like body, a short, thick tail like a beaver, the male has a venomous spur, and its feet are webbed. It uses its sensitive bill which is equipped with electroreceptors to find food underwater.
The platypus is a very shy and elusive creature, hiding during the day, and doing most of its searching for food in the evening and at night. A platypus may make up to 100 dives a day searching for food, staying underwater for one to two minutes at a time. Platypuses shelter in burrows they dig in riverbanks, using their sharp claws which have retractable webbing. Males platypuses can defend themselves with a sharp spur on their hind ankle which delivers strong venom.
Two spurs and two pinions are provided in a machine so that the machine becomes more effective.
No. Platypuses are one of two known monotremes, or egg-laying mammals. The platypus and the echidna, of which there are two species, are the only known egg-laying mammals.
The spurs are a very good and consistant team. In 2011, they were the number one ranked team in the west and second overall behind the chicago bulls. When the two teams mached up, the spurs would win the majority of the games. However, in 2012, the tides have shifted. The Oklahome City Thunder are the top team in the western division. But the spurs are number two. The last time that the two teams played, the San Antonio Spurs won. Overall, I would say that the spurs are better. If the two teams met eachother in the Confrence Finals or Semi-finals, it would be a good game. Overall I would say the Spurs are better but the thunder have the best player on the floor.
