Science - Zoology / Yacimiento prehistórico
English term or phrase: Carrier's constraint
¡Hola! Se trata de un cuestionario ("quiz") que dan a los estudiantes después de visitar un yacimiento prehistórico y el museo anexo. Una de las preguntas dice:

"What groups are affected by Carrier's constraint?

1) Snakes, lizards and mammals
2) Lizards and crocodilians
3) Birds"

Ya sé cómo se traduce "constraint" en circunstancias normales ("restricción", "limitación"), de modo que lo que busco es la traducción utilizada en círculos científicos. Nada de traducciones literales que no se usen en la ciencia, por favor. Si os puede ayudar, sé que el texto inglés fue traducido de un original en alemán. Gracias desde ya.
