Neoteny Mechanism

Neoteny Mechanism refers to the biological process in which an organism retains juvenile traits into adulthood. This can include physical characteristics such as smaller body size, larger eyes, and softer features, as well as behavioral characteristics like increased curiosity and playfulness. Neoteny is often associated with delayed maturation and reproductive capabilities, resulting in individuals that exhibit a youthful appearance and behavior throughout their lives.
