Question 3: Imagine you discover an incomplete specimen of new fossil tetrapod from the late Jurassic. The only bones you recover are vertebrae. How can you figure determine if they belonged to a lissamphibian or an amniote?

Question 4: Many early tetrapods had 8,7 or 6 digits on their hands and feet. What is your hypothesis as to why later tetrapods(like us) evolved to have only 5 or fewer digits, and how could you verify it?
