MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Well, marsupials are the kinds of animals that can do this. They are known as pouched mammals, because the adult females have a marsupium, or pouch. Young marsupials (called joeys) do most of their early development outside of their mother’s body, in a pouch. The pouch acts as a warm, safe place where the joeys grow.

Detailed explanation-2: -While not a universal feature, many marsupial species have a pouch, also called a marsupium.

Detailed explanation-3: -Living marsupials include opossums, Tasmanian devils, kangaroos, koalas, wombats, wallabies, and bandicoots among others, while many extinct species, such as the thylacine, are also known.

Detailed explanation-4: -Dasyurids-these are the meat-eating marsupials: quolls, the tamanian devil, tasmanian tiger, numbats, dunnarts, antechinus. Peramelemorphs-these are the omnivorous marsupials: bilbies and bandicoots. Diprotodonts-these are the largely herbivorous marsupials: kangaroos, wallabies, possums, koalas, wombats.
