Recent fossil evidence shows a placoderm with a developing embryo inside her body. How might we have been able to speculate that placoderms were viviparous in the absence of such evidence?
What will be an ideal response?
Placoderms have pelvic claspers in the (presumed) males, which were probably used for internal fertilization, as in viviparous chondrichthyans.
