Review feedback

[edit]

Overall I thought the general edits you made were good. The introduction to the paedomorphosis section confused me slightly in defining what paedomorphosis is. Generally I've heard the term used interchangeably with neoteny so I'm going off the assumption that your distinction of neoteny as a "subclass" is correct. The following sentence also makes it sound like juvenile development is extended instead of juvenile characteristics being retained in adulthood: 'Species that display neoteny do eventually reach an adult morphology, but have an extended childhood compared to their close evolutionary relatives.' Neoteny also has both a genetic and environmental component. Maybe discuss how the two differ and can drive development? Leahc 10 (talk) 15:08, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
