For
this
assignment,
you
will
need
to
create
a
creature!
This
creature
may
be
inspired
by
an
animal,
but
you
need
to
make
sure
you
imagine
one
that
does
not
already
exist
anywhere
in
the
world.
Your
newly
discovered
creature
lives
on
the
continent
of
Australia.
It
has
been
discovered,
through
DNA
testing,
that
the
animal
is
distantly
related
to
the
kangaroo.
Interestingly
enough,
your
creature
shares
some
physical
similarities
to
both
the
crocodile
and
the
emu,
both
also
native
to
Australia.
However,
it
has
been
determined
through
DNA
testing
that
your
animal
is
not
very
closely
related
to
either
the
emu
or
the
crocodile
and
it
is
not
likely
to
have
gotten
these
physical
similarities
from
a
common
ancestor
with
emus
or
crocodiles.
You
may
design
your
creature
any
way
you
like
as
long
as
you
include
the
following
features:
1.
A
structure
that
is
homologous
to
a
structure
on
the
kangaroo,
even
though
the
feature
looks
different.
2.
A
vestigial
structure
(that
may
be
internal)
that
the
kangaroo
still
uses
but
your
creature
does
not.
3.
A
structure
that
is
analogous
to
a
structure
on
an
emu,
even
though
the
feature
looks
similar.
4.
A
structure
that
is
analogous
to
a
structure
on
a
crocodile,
even
though
the
feature
looks
similar.
In
a
complete
sentence
or
two,
explain
to
me
why
each
feature
you
included
was
appropriate:
What
does
your
creature
use
(or
not
use)
it
for
and
why
does
it
fulfil
the
definition
of
a
homologous,
vestigial,
or
analogous
structure?
Lastly,
remember
to
give
your
creature
a
new
name
for
the
scientific
community
to
call
it!
A
rubric
is
included
below
that
I
will
be
grading
your
work
from.

may
