Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Karly E Cohen"
- Karly E Cohen's research primarily focuses on the evolutionary morphology and functional adaptations of aquatic vertebrates, including sharks and various bony fishes, examining the development of specialized structures like teeth and armor that enhance survival in their environments.
- Her findings reveal that structures such as dermal denticles in sharks and adhesive discs in clingfish have significant evolving homologous characteristics and mechanical functions, shedding light on the similarities and differences between fish morphology and environmental adaptations.
- Cohen's studies also investigate the evolutionary transitions in dentition types in fish, contributing to a better understanding of the functional implications of tooth shape and arrangement, emphasizing the complexity of evolutionary relationships among aquatic species.
