Answer 2

Answer:   transitional

Gerobatrachus hottoni mostly like to be transitional fossil.

Explanation:

Gerobatrachus refers to an extinct genus of amphibamid temnospondyl, which thrived in the initial Permian, that is, about 290 Mya, in the region, which is now known as Baylor County, Texas.

The transitional form of fossils is those that demonstrate the intermediate form between the two distinct living species, it could be in a form of an ancestor and its descendants.
