Similarities of physiology and behaviour due to homology - share common ancestor with that trait or analogy - not due to common ancestor but common due to convergent evoution. Improvement suggestions: the behavioural homology of crocodiles and birds may be flawed. Also the analogy between fish and mammals could be wrong as the post-anal tail of quadrupedal mammals and fish is a common trait.
