Three characteristics that are unique to mammals include their  ability to feed their babies with milk made in their mammary  glands. Mammals also have hair on their bodies â¦and they have a  single bone that makes up their lower jaw.
buoyancy. n. 1. the ability to float in a liquid or to rise in a fluid. 2. (General Physics) the property of a fluid to exert an upward force (upthrust) on a body that is wholly or partly submerged in it. 3. the ability to recover quickly after setbacks; resilience.
The medium of buoyancy is contained within the thin metal walls of the body and consists of the eighth Barsoomian ray, or ray of propulsion, as it may be termed in view of its properties. View in context
