    The superior part of the Müllerian ducts do not fuse and form the left and right fallopian tubes. Disruptions to this stage of development can result in didelphys or bicornuate uteri anomalies. [8] In both didelphys and bicornuate uteri, the non-fusion of the Müllerian ducts results in two distinct uterine cavities.

    The span between precocial and altricial species is particularly broad in the biology of birds. Precocial birds hatch with their eyes open and are covered with downy feathers that are soon replaced by adult-type feathers. [17] Birds of this kind can also swim and run much sooner after hatching than altricial young, such as songbirds. [17]
