conducted on rats to determine how this happens. The rats fell into the three groups as mentioned earlier. Some of the rats had their neocortexes removed. These were removed at different ages of the rats. This was to make it similar to the procedure used on children with use of only one hemisphere of their brain. They found these to have similar impacts‚ and that the ability to control their limbs were lacking. They then put rats in a tank of water that had a platform for escape. The rats that had

skin is still drastically different. As observed in Part One‚ toads have dry‚ leathery‚ warty skin whereas rats have fine‚ tiny hairs covering their exterior. This difference in external covering is most likely due to their origins and its climate. As each animal migrated and adapted to its environment‚ it developed features (adaptations) that would help it survive. For instance‚ as rats originated from Europe where the winters are very cold‚ it can be said that their hair covering developed as
