Solution
The Graafian follicle is characteristic of mammals.
Explanation:
The Graafian follicle is a mature ovarian follicle characteristic of mammals. It is the follicle that bulges on the surface of the ovary and contains the mature ovum ready for ovulation. This distinguishes mammals from reptiles and amphibians which have different follicular structures. Therefore, the Graafian follicle is specifically characteristic of mammals, not reptiles or amphibians, nor all of these groups together.
