Viviparity and biconcave red blood cells

Extra-abdominal testes and a four-chambered heart

Solution

All mammals are characterised by a muscular diaphragm and milk producing glands, without any exception.
Testes are abdominal in prototherians (e.g., platypus), and some eutherians such as elephants, rihinoceros, whales, dolphins and sea cows.
Platypus is oviparous.
A few mammals such as porpoises and armadillos have homodont teeth.
