No wonder the Pokémon look like they do in their universe. I recall a certain KZbinr assemble an "evolution tree" (as in actual Darwinian evolution, not a process akin to metamorphosis) of all the Pokémon we know so far. The one who even invented the concept of Pokémon as a franchise took inspiration from his bug collection. Pokémon would go on to become that marketable of a brand, from video games to a card game to anime and manga to even something like Pikachu's annual appearance in Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, a Super Bowl commercial, and (speaking of sports) Pikachu being a mascot for Japan's soccer team at some point iirc. Once the first domino falls, the rest follow, and Pokémon is a perfect example.

We definitely can expect a body forms that is similiar to what Earth have, but because of life on another planet, life evolve in a different time, circumstances and possibly chemistry than ours, there's going to be a difference, for instance, the body form of a general fish is possibly can evolved in an alien planet with an ocean that is similiar to ours, so the alien "fish" might have a crescent shaped tail fin for propolsion, two pectoral fin for steering, and a streamlined body so that it can moves underwater effectively, but there's still going to be difference like a different set of eyes, its mouth made out of tentacles instead of jaw, etc.

Very similar stuff to what's in their fossilized poop. Now, if someone could research the pigment of the contents of that poop, someone would be on their way to a Nobel Prize. And contrary to the internet's opinion, T-rex only maintained their otherwise unnecessarily supple arm muscles because of the amount of hugging they did. In my head canon anyway.

You don’t even need Latin to know what it means. If you speak Spanish or Portuguese, or any Romance languages that derived from Latin, you pretty much understand what the names mean.

Most animals are actually pretty good at producing necessary vitamins and aminos internally (Vitamin C, all of the Bs, A, K, etc.). We humans are pretty much the only ones who need to get an entire grocery list externally through food. (No other animal gets scurvy, for example)

Nah Fido is a dogs name... Futon is a Japanese design for folding couches and yes phyto comes from phutòn meaning plant in Greek. Different forms are used to mean pland noun like you have a nice plant and plant the verb like go plant these seeds... I don't know the actual forms or if we got the Greek prefix directly or through Latin.

Why is it that we so easily accept that seemingly random processes like mutations can be part of a bigger development that shows certain patterns when it comes to evolution, patterns that take shape based on the material conditions of the world they occur in, yet most of us refuse to accept that the same is true for human history? Yes, on an individual level we might be free to do whatever is we can, but on a larger scale history follows certain patterns, patterns that are based on the material conditions of the world they occur in.

I really do wonder where the "Shrinkwrapping" style of paleo art came from, no animal on earth looks a damned thing like that and it almost always results in features that make zero sense, for instance that gaping hole of a nose on the not-a-crock would be completely open to water and debries, the water part would just mean there is a valve/seal/etc further down but watergoing life tends to have cleanly closing orficices as a matter of _health_ more than anything else: a nose like that would be little different from having an open wound exposed at all times and put a massive burden on the animal's immune system.
