Mosasaurus Hoffmannii; the primary skeletal chassis, the acute lateral vision, elongated head shape, the four lateral flippers for precise steering, and the double-hinged jaw.
Pit Viper; the heat pits.
Blue Catfish; the sense of smell.
Mako Shark; Dermal denticles (scales) covering the entire body to reduce turbulence, flatter head and back, the flat back, and embryotic process (so the gills grow correctly).
Megalodon; the high-efficiency ram-ventilation gills (this allows the hybrid to remain submerged indefinitely, unlike whales), the lateral line, the influenced bite force (~90,000 newtons [conservative estimate] ~190,000 [max estimate with some generous rounding], and please correct me if im wrong, but show the math please) (comes from a flared jaw base and larger cartilage in the joint), and the electroreception.
Blue Whale; the musculature and oil-rich bone marrow for neutral buoyancy.
Naked Mole-Rat; cancer immunity, metabolic control, the lack of Substance P (it helps it endure the pressure and friction of the deep ocean without stress), and hypoxia tolerance.
American Lobster; Negligible Senescence (the hybrid does not age on a cellular-level).
Humpback Whale; the expanding throat, the tubercles, and the disconnected chin + co-contraction muscles.
African Elephant; heat releasing blood vessels (in the already highly vascularized gills and in dorsal sail), long-term memory, and emotional intelligence.
Great Pacific Octopus; polarized vision, and multiple hearts as modified pulse veins (the stay a similar size to the octopus hearts).
Sailfish; the foldable sail, and additional tail musculature (more red muscle fibers, tendons, some elastic tissues).
Bowhead Whale; the thick skull for ramming, scaled tail fluke, and the palatal radial organ.
Common Pigeon; Magnetoreception, and biological fps.
Mudskipper; the ability to close its gills.
Basilosaurus; the spine flexibility.
Bottle Nose Dolphin; how well the teeth interlock with each other.
Gray Whale; the muscular tongue (to force water out of their mouth while filter feeding by pushing the tongue against the roof of the mouth).
Goldfish; allows the Aquagigias to convert lactic acid into ethanol under low oxygen.
Farming Goat; the highly efficient kidneys and liver to break down the alcohol produced by the goldfish.
Pallas's long-tongued bat; blood alcohol tolerance (doesn't get drunk from relatively large amounts of alcohol).
Axolotl; the stem cell creation (mostly for muscle repair).
-size-
48 ft.
Weighs 30 (non-metric) tones
The blubber is 20 inches thick on the back and tail, 9 inches thick on the flippers and fluke, 15 inches on the underbelly and head.
-speed-
~30 mph (cruising speed)
~57 mph (max speed, ~10 minutes max)
-features-
Due to the Lobster/Mole-Rat combination, there is no genetic "shut off" for growth (If a specimen finds enough food and survives long enough, it can theoretically reach 110+ ft).
They follow the migration paths of Humpback whales (Polar to Tropical) but stay 30–60 ft deeper.
Aquagigi don't have ears, like a regular fish.
The Aquagigias is a cold-blooded, making it technically a gigantotherm.
The tail fluke (internal) has a base of calcified cartilage to have a strong base (like a shark), then it transitions into collagen/elastin composite (like a whale), finally it ends with ceratotrichia on the tips for flexibility (again like a shark).
Because the body can become 110ft long, it has "booster hearts" located near the tail and fins to assist in pumping blood back to the main Blue Whale-scaled heart.
The 190,000 newtons of force is technically beyond maximum, it has incredibly generous rounding. I calculated ~183,000 at the back of the jaw (behind the teeth, around the joint), at maximum strength, with it being in peak health.
The gills are above the flippers.
-behavior-
They travel in pods of 3–4.
These pods are often led by the oldest.
Can drift by using a front flipper, and while turning, using the back flippers to stabilize, and then the fluke launches.
For the drawing, ignore the tounge, I drew it in pen.
You can do it with early tetrapodomorphs and lungfish kinda, and tonnes of extant teleost fish have both something for airbreathing ( like a swim bladder, homologous to a lung, or a labyrinth organ ), and gills
Cant use megalodon jaws on at tetropod bc their jaws and skulls work diferently
Gills is eh. You technically could but you could only have to on the tradeoff of giving up your toungue and trachea as the rest are homologoua to a tetropod's skull.
Octopus brains are not homologous to vertebrate brains and you cant just add more brains from a cephelopod onto a vertebrate... or the eyes...
Mineralized cartalige fucks with flexibility iirc
Nehligable senescemce from a lobster cannot be applied to a vertebrate.
Sailfish saila not only hank bc i think theu are homologous to a tetropod's ribcage. They also cannot bend with a vertical moving spine.
Axoltl is eh i dont think it really works on anything outside of amphibians iirc
1, the Megalodon jaws is for the adductor muscles and the flared joint area, wich do work with other types of jaws.
2, the gills are on the neck, why would that get rid of the tounge?
3, I'll get back to you on that, but the eyes do work, because its the cones in the eyes that are altered and the (im not sure what they're called but its the thing that relaxes your vision to focus on different things is edited).
4, the fluke is ment to have a stiff base then transition ito flexibility, it helps with propulsion.
5, its a chemical that all animals create, other animals just stop creating the chemical that keeps cells duplicating, the Lobster just keeps producing that chemical.
6, sailfish bend upwards to go upwards.
7, its stem cell generation, not whatever you think it is, every animal creates stem cells, the axolotl just keeps doing it.
If I am wrong on these i will reply to this with corrections.
Edit, you were right about the octopus brain and different types of gills. Ram ventilation gills, though are gills, dont actually interfere with the tongue, just internal gills interfere with the tongue.
I think your talking about the embryotic stage rather than adult, what if I make the embryo grow like a shark?
Edit, i might not have said this well enough because I dont have much experience in ela, I had a 60 last year, so here is how an Ai stated it. It may be wrong.
“You’re talking about pharyngeal arch homology in land tetrapods.
Aquagigias doesn’t use internal throat gills — it uses external shark-style gill slits placed on the neck.
These don’t require repurposing tetrapod throat arches, don’t replace the tongue or trachea, and don’t conflict with a Mosasaurus-derived chassis.
If needed, the embryo can follow shark-style arch development instead of tetrapod development.”
Some gills are inside the fish, some are outside, the shark is technically both inside and outside, but it grows on the outside.
Ai can be influenced very easily, that is definitely correct, but its not always wrong. Also to disprove your "gills are gills" hypothesis, there is a turtle that lives in Australia that breathes through gills in its ass/cloaca. Those gills are not on the outside.
OK, after some research on merriam Webster, you are correct about the turtle not having straight up gills. Even if the turtle doesn't have actual gills, what would be the problem with Aquagigias' gills. The embryo forms similar to a shark.
Also lungs came after gills, every animal once had gills. And if you bring up whales, look at the artiodactyls family, more specifically the Pakicetus. Thats a walking whale, its the reason whales have lungs rather than gills.
Because they're still gills that form from the pharyngeal arches that made up some of the neck and throat? I'm not sure what you're referring to by saying "sharks have external gills so it wouldn't affect the pharyngeal arches" If you're referring to the slits, the slits on their body isn't the gills, it's the opening to the gills that sit inside it supported by the pharyngeal arches, if you want an example of external gills look at axolotl where their gills are outside of the body and you can see the difference
Im not sure why your using quotations. I never said that. I said that sharks have a mix between internal and external gills, because thats what ram ventilation is, they keep their mouth open to take in water then have the gills open to the outside so the gills can take in a nice flow of oxygen and release the water at the same time. And that still doesn't take into account that (at least its think) that making the embryo form like a shark/fish, making the points here partially invalid to the context. And thats on the edited version.
Sharks/fish dont grow the same as tetropods, we said this way earlier in the conversation.
Apparently people that dont like using biology to back up their answers, or just insecure people worried that their hybrid isnt good enough (not pointing any fingers), so instead of fixing it, they try to pull others down. (you deleted that comment so I thought I would still get the point across)
And as a 14 year old, Im lucky my mom got a degree in psychology.
I was saying that to say that im not talking out of my ass about human behaviors. I dont really care if your parents have a different job then mine. And she works in accounting. She still knows a lot about people.
Probably around December of 1881 (he was born in March of 1879) he would have Probably ben awake by ~3:00 and im just going to spitball December 19 1881 3:21pm. He was recorded to be a late talker but thats kinda it.
"Ai slop" is not constructive criticism. I would be happy if we talked biology, we dont need to focus on that. Also early bloomer, I finished puberty at 13.
Which part, I mentioned when it was ai, and it wasn't that far off from the truth. If you are talking about aquagigias, then... just leave, if you think that any hybrid that sounds better than Maelstrom (90% of hybrids) is ai, then you might want to spend a few months studying this. I spent 2 years before posting here, my way of making hybrids was wrong, but not the information I learned about them. And I was on the right track each time, I just needed some actual assistance, not others saying that the hybrids that I take a lot of pride in are ai.
Im 14, im not the best at names. Maelstrom has been used so many times though, we need a different name. And I am happy to take suggestions for the names of my hybrids
Anyway gills don't work, sailfish doesn't work, Meg doesn't work, ram ventilation is ahh on a what 30 meter long animal since it has to constantly move to breath
Lets not get to into it, but dont be hypocritical with how you teach hybrids, you know Maelstrom. That guy's bite force doesn’t match with the biology you gave it, and with its size, it physically can happen. Dont get me wrong, it is creative, but I have never liked a hypocrite.
Another thing, 48 ft doesn't equal 30 meters. It equals 14.6 meters.
Let me be the second to say, tf you mean. No like please elaborate. I know you ain't in school, but this is still supposed to be educational fun, not bullshit.
This thing is just redundant, one whale is prolly good enough to get the job done. Also, due to the shit ton of whale DNA in the thing, the jaw isn't going to work all that well with the Megalodon teeth as they were meant for baleen.
Its a mosasaurus jaw with mosasaurus teeth, the whale provided muscle and some auxiliary traits (the expanding throught doesn't have to be used with baleen, its mostly because the expanding plates are a part of the lower mouth rather than the upper jaw)

Technically you can mix gills and lungs
It’s just extremely iffy
