Evolutionary adaptation to aquatic lifestyle in extinct sloths can lead to systemic alteration of bone structure
Through phenotypic plasticity, bones can change in structure and morphology, in response to physiological and biomechanical influences over the course of individual life. Changes in bones also occur in evolution as functional adaptations to the environment. In this study, we report on the evolution...
