Can bat be considered as a connecting link of mammals and birds in the trend of evolution?
Yes, bats can be considered a connecting link between mammals and birds in the trend of evolution because they are unique in being the only mammal capable of sustained flight. This adaptation has led to similarities with birds in terms of wing structure and flight behavior, suggesting a convergence in evolutionary pathways between these two groups.
Is a kangaroos special pouch a structural adaptation?
Kangaroos are primitive mammals. There offsprings needs more protection. So they have pouch to keep there babies safe. They are only found in Australia. Incidentally the link between birds and mammals is found in Australia only in the form of echidna and platypus.
What is the connecting link between plant and animal?

How is tourism related to chemistry?
Any link between tourism and chemistry.
What is the connecting link between reptiles and mammals?
duck billed platypus
How many dinsaurus are mammals?
No dinosaurs were mammals, but reptiles. "dinosaur" means "terrible lizard." Though there may be a link between dinosaurs and modern birds.
Why are some mammals that lay eggs classified as mammals?
Monotremes lay eggs, as do reptiles. Monotremes' limbs go outward (rather than downward) from their main body, which is also true for reptiles. Monotremes lack a corpus callosum (which placental mammals have), as do reptiles. Monotremes and reptiles both have cloacas, while placental mammals have separate openings for urination and defecation. This evidence all shows monotremes to be a link between reptiles and mammals, but we now think that monotremes just evolved from an earlier branching from the mammalian tree of lineage than the marsupials and placental mammals evolved from. Monotremes are not a link between reptiles and mammals.
How are platypus similar to reptiles and mammals?
No. Fossil evidence indicates that platypuses have always existed more or less in their current form. Ancient platypuses were larger and had teeth, unlike modern platypuses, but platypuses do not provide any sort of evolutionary link between reptiles and mammals.
What is the connecting link between bird and mammal?
The connecting link between birds(Class Aves) and Mammals(Class Mammalia) is Archeopteryx
One hypothesized link between modern whales and hoofed mammals are?
Fish
The extinct animal archaeopteryx is believed to be a link between two modern animal groups which are they?
Birds and reptiles.
What is an archaeoperyx?
Archaeopteryx - when discovered - was the missing link between the reptiles and birds. It was still unable of real flight and had teeth.
What is a bird if is not a mammal?
it depends on what is your definition of bird. Mammals are warm blooded animals that keep their bodies warm with the heat produced from there metabolic reactions, so do birds. Dinosaurs have been found with feathers, does that make them a bird or reptile? Reptiles lay eggs as do birds (and some mammals). To clearly answer your question, birds are simply another class (aves) in the animal kingdom, just like fishes and amphibians. There are some theories as of how birds came about (the most realistic one, is that reptiles gave mammals and birds) because some reptiles (dinosaurs have been found with feathers (missing link between reptiles and birds) and some other reptiles have been found with mammal glands (missing link between reptiles and mammals).
Can baby garden snakes eat meal worms?
No they do not ! Their diet consists of frogs, reptiles and mammals - including the poisonous cane toad. See related link for more details from Wikipedia.
Reptiles and birds are divided into two classes reptilia and aves What fossil evidence would be the BEST support for this division?
The best fossil evidence supporting the division between reptiles and birds would be transitional fossils showing a clear evolutionary pathway between the two groups. Fossils with features characteristic of both reptiles and birds, such as Archaeopteryx, provide strong support for the evolutionary link between these classes.
What are the similarities between snakes and lizards?
Salamanders and snakes are reptiles, both reproduce by laying eggs, some species of each are amphibious. See the link below for more information.
