The correct Answer is:
To determine which character is not related to Aves (birds), we will analyze each of the given options step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Aves Characteristics**: - Aves, or birds, are characterized by certain features such as feathers, beaks, and the ability to maintain a constant body temperature (homeothermy). - They also possess unique adaptations like hollow bones and specific reproductive systems. 2. **Analyzing the First Option**: - **Homeothermy and Presence of Oil Glands in Skin**: - Homeothermy refers to the ability to maintain a stable internal body temperature regardless of external conditions. This is indeed a characteristic of birds. - Oil glands, specifically the preen glands, are present in birds to help maintain their feathers. - **Conclusion**: This option is related to Aves. 3. **Analyzing the Second Option**: - **Female Genital Organs of Both Sides Functional**: - In birds, typically only one ovary (the left one) is functional. The right ovary and oviduct are usually non-functional. - **Conclusion**: This option is NOT related to Aves. 4. **Analyzing the Third Option**: - **Female Genital Organs of One Side Functional**: - This statement aligns with the known reproductive anatomy of birds, where usually only the left side is functional. - **Conclusion**: This option is related to Aves. 5. **Analyzing the Fourth Option**: - **Exoskeleton of Feathers**: - Feathers are a defining characteristic of birds, and they are considered a form of exoskeleton. - **Conclusion**: This option is related to Aves. ### Final Conclusion: The character that is NOT related to Aves is **"Female genital organs of both sides functional."** ---
