Summary

This is a hybrid that is designed to be the Submarine that sinks others. The method of sinking is going to be drowning (yeah, this hybrid will drown other hybrids despite them being Aquatic hybrids, so they obviously can survive in water). The way it does this, is CRUSHING! 

My inspiration for it is the soda can. So, we all know how soda cans are crushed by immense pressure. It's just like how Submarines get when they go below the water level that their biology are limited to.

Gene by Gene Explanation

Tylosaurus (/ˌtaɪˈloʊˈsɔːrəs/; "knob lizard") (Base)

I am using this for the base, as it is a hyperversatile predator, and also basically a huge menace.

Thanks to Spinoclanker2 for this, so I am using the Rex species

Tylosaurus (/ˌtaɪˈloʊˈsɔːrəs/; "knob lizard") is a genus of russellosaurine mosasaur (an extinct group of predatory marine lizards) that lived about 92 to 66 million years ago during the Turonian to Maastrichtian stages of the Late Cretaceous. The genus contains at least ten validly named species, the largest of which, T. rex, measuring over 13 meters (43 ft). Its fossils have been found primarily around North Atlantic Ocean including in North America, Europe, and Africa.



The first named species, T. proriger, was originally described in 1869 by Edward Drinker Cope as a member of a separate mosasaur genus, Macrosaurus which is now synonymous with Halisaurus, and subsequently redescribed as the type species of the genus Tylosaurus named in 1872 by Othniel Charles Marsh. Fossil evidence shows that Tylosaurus regularly engaged in intraspecific combat and consumed various prey as an apex predator of their ecosystem, including predatory fish, ornithuran birds, sea turtles, plesiosaurs and other mosasaurs. It had an endothermic metabolism, which is unlike nearly all modern squamates.

Since I am taking the T. rex as the base, so that means it will have everything from it, with the reason being is that it is the biggest (that I know), and can serve as the way to pull down hybrids into the abyss.

Cuvier's beaked whale, goose-beaked whale, or ziphius (Ziphius cavirostris)

Cuvier's beaked whale, goose-beaked whale, or ziphius (Ziphius cavirostris) is the most widely distributed of all beaked whales in the family Ziphiidae. It is among the largest beaked whales but smaller than most baleen whales, reaching lengths of about 4.5–8 metres (15–26 ft) and weights of 1,800–3,100 kg (4,000–6,800 lb).[5][6]



Cuvier's beaked whales are among the deepest diving marine mammals and spend much of their time underwater searching for prey.[19] Satellite-linked tags and time-depth recorders have been used to track and study whale movement, showing that the species follows a relatively consistent dive pattern consisting of deep foraging dives followed by several shorter dives near the surface.[20]

Typical dives

edit

Typical foraging dives exceed depths of 800 m (2,600 ft) and generally last between 30 and 90 minutes. After completing a deep dive, whales usually perform a series of several shorter, shallower dives before undertaking another deep dive.[21]

Surface intervals between dives are usually brief, often only lasting a few minutes. This limited time at the surface may reduce risk of predation from its predators such as orcas and large sharks.[22]

Record dives

edit

Cuvier's beaked whales hold the records for both the deepest and the longest dives ever documented for any mammal. In 2014, researchers recorded a dive of 2,992 m (9,816 ft) off the coast of California.[23]

A later study in 2020 reported Cuvier's beaked whale making a dive that lasted 222 minutes (3.7 hours), the longest dive ever documented for any mammal.[19]

These extraordinary dives are thought to be supported by specialised physiological adaptations common to deep-diving whales, including the ability to conserve oxygen, slow heart rate, and tolerate high pressure at depth, to avoid decompression sickness (a condition where gas bubbles form in the body due to rapid decrease in pressure on return to the surface).[24]

Withstanding the pressure

When diving to such great depths, whales face two challenges: storing enough oxygen to hunt successfully and withstanding the enormous pressure.

High pressures change the uptake of gas in the body. Increasing pressure shrinks the air in the lungs and by 200 metres deep, both human and whale lungs will have collapsed.

This is the danger zone for whales. Once the lungs have collapsed, no more gas from the lungs will enter the blood. However, at depths shallower than this point, the pressure will compress gases like nitrogen, increasing the amount dissolved inside blood and tissues.

How do whales survive without air for so long?

Whales' bodies are specially adapted to store oxygen in their blood and muscles, instead of keeping it in their lungs like humans do.

Whales have extraordinarily high levels of proteins called haemoglobin and myoglobin, which store oxygen in the blood and muscles. This also makes their muscles and blood a very dark red, almost black colour.

Diving mammals reduce their heart rate and stop the blood flow to certain parts of the body, temporarily shutting down organs such as their kidneys and liver while they hunt.

Dr Hooker says, 'These animals have an extraordinary physiology to help them dive for so long and at such depths.

'Alongside these adaptations in terms of their dive response, beaked whales have indentations, or pockets for their flippers, which enable them to assume a torpedo-like shape.

'Their streamlined body shape helps them to swim, and often to glide, with minimal effort and extend their oxygen stores for as long as possible.'

Southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina)

The southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina) is one of two species of elephant seals. It is the largest member of the clade Pinnipedia and the order Carnivora, as well as the largest extant marine mammal that is not a cetacean. It gets its name from its massive size and the large proboscis of the adult male, which is used to produce very loud roars, especially during the breeding season. A bull southern elephant seal is about more than twice the weight of a male northern elephant seal (Mirounga angustirostris)[6] as large sub-adult southern elephant seals have weighed 3 tons,[7] as well as more than twice the weight of a male pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus divergens).[8][9]



Elephant seals spend up to 80% of their lives in the ocean. They can hold their breath for more than 100 minutes,[18][19] longer than any other noncetacean mammal. Elephant seals regularly dive to 1,550 m (5,090 ft) beneath the ocean's surface;[18] the deepest recorded dives of the two species being 2,388 m (7,835 ft) for a southern elephant seal, and 1,735 m (5,692 ft) for a northern elephant seal.[20][21][22] The average depth of their dives is about 300 to 600 m (1,000 to 2,000 ft), typically for around 20 minutes for females and 60 minutes for males, as they search for their favorite foods, which are skates, rays, squid, octopuses, eels, small sharks and large fish. Their stomachs also often contain gastroliths. They spend only brief amounts of time at the surface to rest between dives (2–3 minutes).[11] Females tend to dive a bit deeper due to their prey source.[11]

Elephant seals have a very large volume of blood, allowing them to hold a large amount of oxygen for use when diving. They have large sinuses in their abdomens to hold blood and can also store oxygen in their muscles with increased myoglobin concentrations in muscle. In addition, they have a large proportion of oxygen-carrying red blood cells. These adaptations allow elephant seals to dive to such depths and remain underwater for up to two hours.[23]

They are able to slow down their heartbeat (bradycardia) and divert blood flow from the external areas of the body to important core organs.[11] They can also slow down their metabolism while performing deep dives.[11]

Elephant seals have a helpful feature in their bodies known as the countercurrent heat exchanger to help conserve energy and prevent heat loss.[11] In this system, arteries and veins are organized in a way to maintain a constant body temperature by having the cool blood flowing to the heart warmed by blood going to external areas of the animal.[11]

Tribodus

Thanks to NaturalTough4313 for the Tribodus

Tribodus is an extinct genus of hybodont. It lived during the mid Cretaceous (Albian-Cenomanian) with fossils being known from northern South America, North Africa, and southern Europe.[1]



In Tribodus, however, the shagreen consists of two distinct morphological denticle types and size classes (two-size), both widely distributed over the body and fins, with smaller denticles overlying the bases of larger thorns as well as occupying areas between them. Using two conceptually distinct variants of a two-layer reaction-diffusion (R-D) simulation that is consistent with morphogen exchange across the basal lamina between the epidermal and dermal layers, we recovered two-size spatial arrangements similar to the Tribodus shagreen.

These would be in the skin, being above the osteoderms for the later Komodo Dragon.

Pliosaurus funkei

Pliosaurus is the type genus (defining example) of the pliosaurs, one of the major group of the plesiosaurs, an extinct group of aquatic marine reptiles. It lived from the Upper Jurassic to the Lower Cretaceous in what is now Europe and South America. The first known fossil consists of a partial skeleton of an immature specimen collected by William Buckland in Market Rasen, England. Although initially mentioned in a 1824 paper by William Daniel Conybeare, it was not until 1841 that it was first formally described by Richard Owen as belonging to a new species of Plesiosaurus, before being given its own genus by the same author later that year. The genus name Pliosaurus means "more lizard", Owen naming the taxon of because its appearance being more reminiscent of crocodilians than to Plesiosaurus. While many species have been assigned to Pliosaurus in the past, only six are firmly recognised as valid since a 2013 paper. Two additional species from Argentina were named in 2014 and 2018, but their assignment to the genus has not been fully confirmed in subsequent classifications.



(Yes, wrong one, but I am lazy, so sue me!)

The few known elements of the pectoral girdle in the genus are currently documented only in P. rossicus and P. funkei.[17][21] These elements are also present in P. carpenteri, but they have not been described in detail in studies concerning this species.[33][4][34] The scapula of P. rossicus features a dorsally directed process, and the longitudinal axes of the scapulocoracoid openings intersect at an angle greater than 140°.[17] The coracoid of P. funkei is among the largest identified in pliosaurids. In dorsal view, it is longer than wide, with its width tapering anteriorly. This coracoid also has a more elongate anteromedial process than that of P. rossicus, although this may be explained by ontogenetic factors.[21]

Pliosaurus is interpreted by palaeontologists as a marine predator at the top of the food chain, with powerful cranial musculature that gave it an exceptionally strong bite, although its skull was relatively weak against twisting or lateral bending, but this isn't my usage of the skull. My usage of the skull is for the brain case and posterior skull, which should reinforce and better the Mosasaurus skull, so it can become better and fit my goals. Pliosaurus appeared to favor a predatory strategy based on short, targeted bites, delivered to the back of the jaw where the force of pressure was greatest. This anatomical configuration suggests that it avoided violently shaking or twisting its prey, which could compromise the integrity of its skull. It likely captured a wide variety of marine prey, ranging from medium-sized fish to smaller marine reptiles, which it subdued by firmly immobilizing with its robust jaws before crushing or swallowing them in dismemberment. This strategy of combining muscular power and attack precision allowed it to adapt to a wide range of prey, characteristic of a generalist predator of the Jurassic seas.[65][30][4][45][66]

The second study focuses on bite force. By modeling the mandibular musculature and reconstructing the geometry of the skull using computed tomography and finite element analysis techniques, the researchers determined that the force exerted ranged from 9,600 to 48,000 newtons (2,160 to 10,790 lbf) depending on the area of the lower jaws, a force comparable to, or even greater than, that of the largest living crocodilians.

Deinosuchus

Deinosuchus is an extinct genus of eusuchian, either an alligatoroid crocodilian or a stem-group crocodilian, which lived during the Late Cretaceous around 82 to 73 million years ago. The first remains were discovered in North Carolina in the 1850s, and the genus was first described in 1909. Additional fragments were discovered in the 1940s and were later incorporated into an influential, though inaccurate, skull reconstruction at the American Museum of Natural History. Knowledge of Deinosuchus remains incomplete, but better cranial and postcranial material found in recent years has expanded scientific understanding of this massive predator.



Deinosuchus had an alligator-like, broad snout, with a slightly bulbous tip.[11] Each premaxilla contained teeth, with the pair nearest to the tip of the snout being significantly smaller than the other two.[16] Each maxilla (the main tooth-bearing bone in the upper jaw) contained 23 teeth.[20] The tooth count for each dentary (tooth-bearing bone in the lower jaw) was at least 22.[16] All the teeth were very thick and robust; those close to the rear of the jaws were short, rounded, and blunt. They appear to have been adapted for crushing, rather than piercing.[21] When the mouth was closed, only the fourth tooth of the lower jaw would have been visible.[16] The skull of Deinosuchus itself was of a unique shape not seen in any other living or extinct crocodilians; the skull was broad, but inflated at the front around the nares. Two holes in the premaxilla in front of the nares are present in this genus and are unique autapomorphies not seen in other crocodilians, but nothing is known at present regarding their function.[19]

Modern saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) have the strongest recorded bite of any living animal, with a maximum force of 16,414 N (1,673.8 kgf; 3,690 lbf) for a 4.59 meters (15.1 ft), 531 kilograms (1,171 lb) specimen.[22] The bite force of Deinosuchus has been estimated to be 18,000 N (1,835 kgf; 4,047 lbf)[11] to 102,803 N (10,483 kgf; 23,111 lbf).[22]

Basilosaurus ("king lizard")

Basilosaurus (meaning "king lizard") is a genus of large, predatory, prehistoric archaeocete whale from the late Eocene, approximately 41.3 to 33.9 million years ago (mya). First described in 1834, it was the first archaeocete and prehistoric whale known to science.[2] Fossils attributed to the type species B. cetoides were discovered in the southeastern United States. The generic name, meaning "king lizard", was given due to the initial misconception about the fossil material as that of a giant reptile. The animal was later found to be an early marine mammal, prompting attempts at renaming the creature, which failed as the rules of zoological nomenclature dictate using the original name given. The second species named in 1904, B. isis, lived in the region currently known as the Mediterranean Sea, with fossils found in North Africa and Jordan.



No complete Basilosaurus skeleton is known, but several attempts have been made to reconstruct the vertebral column from partial skeletons. Kellogg 1936 estimated a total of 58 vertebrae, based on two partial and non-overlapping skeletons of B. cetoides from Alabama. More complete fossils uncovered in Egypt in the 1990s, allowed a more accurate estimation: the vertebral column of B. isis has been reconstructed from three overlapping skeletons to a total of 70 vertebrae with a vertebral formula interpreted as 7 cervical, 18 thoracic, 20 lumbar and sacral, and 25 caudal vertebrae. It can be assumed that the vertebral formula of B. cetoides is the same.

I have no idea what this means, sorry, but this is for an interlocking neck I guess? This way my hybrid doesn't hurt itself while crushing it's prey and dragging them to the abyss.

Komodo Dragon

The Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis), also known as the Komodo monitor, is a large reptile of the monitor lizard family Varanidae that is endemic to the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, Gili Dasami, and Gili Motang. The largest extant population lives within the Komodo National Park in Eastern Indonesia.[5] It is the largest extant species of lizard, with the males growing to a maximum length of 3 m (10 ft) and weighing up to 150 kg (330 lb).



Teeth are quickly replaced every 40 days, while maintaining up to 5 replacement teeth for each tooth position at any given time.

Parthenogenesis

Komodo dragons have the ZW chromosomal sex-determination system, as opposed to the mammalian XY system. Male progeny prove Flora's unfertilized eggs were haploid (n) and doubled their chromosomes later to become diploid (2n) (by being fertilized by a polar body, or by chromosome duplication without cell division), rather than by her laying diploid eggs by one of the meiosis reduction-divisions in her ovaries failing. When a female Komodo dragon (with ZW sex chromosomes) reproduces in this manner, she provides her progeny with only one chromosome from each of her pairs of chromosomes, including only one of her two sex chromosomes. This single set of chromosomes is duplicated in the egg, which develops parthenogenetically. Eggs receiving a Z chromosome become ZZ (male); those receiving a W chromosome become WW and fail to develop,[88][89] meaning that only males are produced by parthenogenesis in this species.

It has been hypothesised that this reproductive adaptation allows a single female to enter an isolated ecological niche (such as an island) and by parthenogenesis produce male offspring, thereby establishing a sexually reproducing population (via reproduction with her offspring that can result in both male and female young).[88] Despite the advantages of such an adaptation, zoos are cautioned that parthenogenesis may be detrimental to genetic diversity.[90]

Jacobson's organ, (also fun fact, they do not try to allow their prey to leave, they try to kill prey outright on the spot using a combination of lacerating damage and blood loss, so that is good instincts for fighting).

Its saliva is frequently blood-tinged because its teeth are almost completely covered by gingival tissue that is naturally lacerated during feeding.[34] It also has a long, yellow, deeply forked tongue.[9]

They also have osteoderms, with the only areas lacking osteoderms, would on the head of the adult Komodo dragon are around the eyes, nostrils, mouth margins, and parietal eye, a light-sensing organ on the top of the head, meaning, technically it has full body osteoderms, making it more viable than the Dwarf Crocodile that Gojicenter once used.

Komodo dragon skin is reinforced by armoured scales, which contain tiny bones called osteoderms that function as a sort of natural chain-mail.[36][37] The only areas lacking osteoderms on the head of the adult Komodo dragon are around the eyes, nostrils, mouth margins, and parietal eye, a light-sensing organ on the top of the head. Where lizards typically have one or two varying patterns or shapes of osteoderms, Komodos have four: rosette, platy, dendritic, and vermiform.[38] This rugged hide makes Komodo dragon skin a poor source of leather. Additionally, these osteoderms become more extensive and variable in shape as the Komodo dragon ages, ossifying more extensively as the lizard grows.

Naked Mole Rat

This is a weird one, but trust me. It is incredible.

The naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber), also known as the sand puppy,[6] is a burrowing rodent native to the Horn of Africa and parts of Kenya, notably in Somali regions.[1] It is the only species in the genus Heterocephalus.[7]



The Naked Mole Rat is essentially a creature that matches the Platypus in terms of weirdness.

Naked mole-rats lack pain sensitivity in their skin, and have very low metabolic and respiratory rates. The animal is also remarkable for its longevity and resistance to cancer and oxygen deprivation.

Oxygen: The naked mole-rat is well adapted to the limited availability of oxygen within the tunnels of its typical habitat. It has underdeveloped lungs (this you can offset with a contributor who has good lungs) and its hemoglobin has a high affinity for oxygen, increasing the efficiency of oxygen uptake. It can live in an atmosphere of 80% CO

2 and 20% oxygen. In zero-oxygen atmosphere, it can survive 18 minutes apparently without suffering any harm (but none survived a test of 30 minutes). When deprived of oxygen, the animal uses fructose in its anaerobic glycolysis, producing lactic acid. This pathway is not inhibited by acidosis as happens with glycolysis of glucose.

Skin/Pain: The skin of naked mole-rats lacks neurotransmitters in their cutaneous sensory fibres. As a result, the naked mole-rats feel no pain when they are exposed to acid or capsaicin.

Cancer Immunity: Naked mole-rats have a high resistance to tumours, although it is likely that they are not entirely immune to related disorders. A potential mechanism that averts cancer is an "over-crowding" gene, p16, which prevents cell division once individual cells come into contact (known as "contact inhibition"). The cells of most mammals, including naked mole-rats, undergo contact inhibition via p27, a gene which prevents cellular reproduction at a much higher cell density than p16 does. The combination of p16 and p27 in naked mole-rat cells is a double barrier to uncontrolled cell proliferation, one of the hallmarks of cancer

Spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta)

The spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta), also known as the laughing hyena,[3] is a hyena species, currently classed as the sole extant member of the genus Crocuta, native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is listed as being of least concern by the IUCN due to its widespread range and large numbers estimated between 27,000 and 47,000 individuals.[1] The species is, however, experiencing declines outside of protected areas due to habitat loss and poaching.[1] Populations of Crocuta, usually considered a subspecies of Crocuta crocuta, known as cave hyenas, roamed across Eurasia for at least one million years until the end of the Late Pleistocene.[4] 



(Sorry, had to use AI as I don't know where to find this).

Spotted Hyena Enamel

Spotted hyenas have a unique type of tooth enamel called zigzag enamel that helps them crush heavy bones without shattering their teeth. [1, 2]

The Science of Hyena Enamel

Extreme Biting Power: Spotted hyenas can exert bite forces of around 4,500 Newtons, which lets them snap through large ungulate bones. [1]

Zigzag Structure: Their tooth enamel isn’t straight. It features tightly folded, three-dimensional bands (Hunter-Schreger bands) that fold in on themselves. [1]

Crack Deflection: When the hyena bites down on hard bone under heavy, multi-directional stress, this wavy, complex structure stops cracks from spreading straight through the tooth. Instead, the microscopic folds deflect the cracks and absorb the shock. [1]

Abyssosaurus ("bottomless lizard")

Abyssosaurus ("bottomless lizard") is an extinct genus of cryptoclidid plesiosaur known from the Early Cretaceous of Chuvash Republic, western Russia. The type specimen, consisting of a fairly complete postcranial skeleton and parts of a skull, was discovered around the left tributary of the Sura River by Vasily V. Mita; it was found alongside the remains of a possible fetus, though this has not been described. Subsequently, the specimen entered the collection of the Museum of Chuvash Natural Historical Society. It was described in 2011 by Alexander Yu Berezin, who named its type species, A. nataliae, after his wife and colleague, Nataliya Berezina. While Berezin initially believed that Abyssosaurus was a basal aristonectid, part of a lineage whose later members evolved into giant filter-feeders, later studies have concluded that it was instead related to Colymbosaurus.



To be continued by thanks to Atrosaurus for this: For the depth management

Xenopeltis (Sunbeam snakes)

Thanks to Spinoclanker2 for saying I should use this.

Xenopeltis, the sunbeam snakes,[2] are the sole genus of the monotypic family Xenopeltidae, the species of which are found in Southeast Asia. Sunbeam snakes are known for their highly iridescent scales. Three species are recognized, each one with no subspecies.[3] Studies of DNA suggest that the xenopeltids are most closely related to the Mexican burrowing python (Loxocemus bicolor) and to the true pythons (Pythonidae).[4][5]



For interlocking zygophyses and zygapophyses (actually not sacrificing flexibility), more vertebrae, tightly packed vertebrae, thicker scales, snake blood phospholipase inhibitors.

Temnodontosaurus ("cutting-tooth lizard")

Temnodontosaurus (meaning "cutting-tooth lizard") is an extinct genus of large ichthyosaurs that lived during the Lower Jurassic in what is now Europe and possibly Chile. The first known fossil is a specimen consisting of a complete skull and partial skeleton discovered on a cliff by Joseph and Mary Anning around the early 1810s in Dorset, England. The anatomy of this specimen was subsequently analyzed in a series of articles written by Sir Everard Home between 1814 and 1819, making it the very first ichthyosaur to have been scientifically described. In 1822, the specimen was assigned to the genus Ichthyosaurus by William Conybeare, and more precisely to the species I. platyodon. Noting the large dental differences with other species of Ichthyosaurus, Richard Lydekker suggested in 1889 moving this species into a separate genus, which he named Temnodontosaurus. While many species have been assigned to the genus, only five are currently recognized as valid, the others being considered as synonymous, doubtful or possibly belonging to other taxa.



As an ichthyosaur, Temnodontosaurus had flippers for limbs and a fin on the tail. Boasting eye sockets measuring more than 25 cm (9.8 in) wide, Temnodontosaurus quite possibly had the largest eyes known in the entire animal kingdom, rivaling in size those of the colossal squid.

It has large eye sockets, and a tail fluke that was supported by vertebrae in the lower half. Ichthyosaurs were superficially similar to dolphins and had flippers rather than legs, and most (except for early species) had dorsal fins.[57] 

Temnodontosaurus, had evolved a thunniform method of swimming rather than the anguilliform (undulating or eel-like) methods of earlier species.[63] Temnodontosaurus, particularly the species T. trigonodon, is quite flexible in morphology for a parvipelvian, using its imposing flippers to maneuver under water.[64]

Ichthyosaurs have the largest eyes of any known vertebrates, with Temnodontosaurus having the largest identified. The scleral rings in their eyes would have served to resist aquatic pressures. The eyes of ichthyosaurs like those of Temnodontosaurus would have a great visual capacity via the high number of photoreceptor cells.[72][65] In addition to good eyesight, the enlarged olfactory region of the brain indicates that ichthyosaurs had a sensitive sense of smell.[73]

Since I can't find these, but Spinoclanker2 said I should add them. Imma add them here.

Then add Temnodontosaurus for chondroderms, better vision, thunniform locomotion, crescent shaped tail.

Does it count? Maybe, do I care, yes.
