In the domain of dinosaurs, for example, expert children tend to use the presence and absence of a few salient features to decide whether a dinosaur is a meateater or a planteater. Hence, a dinosaur is a meateater if it has ‘‘long’’ and ‘‘sharp teeth,’’ whereas it would be a planteater if these features were absent.
