One can easily determine if a skull is that of a mammal by looking for certain key features such as the presence of teeth differentiated into different types, a lower jaw made of a single bone, and ear bones that are separate from the skull.

Which of these would a paleontologist be most likely to do in order to determine whether a fossil represents a reptile or a mammal?

If this fossil had a skull, a paleontologist could look for fenestrae (openings). A mammal has one fenestra, beneath the postorbital and squamosal bones. A lizard also has one fenestra, but it is above the postorbital and squamosal bones. Testudine reptiles (turtles and relatives) and snakes have no fenestrae, while the rest of the reptiles have two: one above the postorbital and squamosal bones and one below.
