Please settle a family dispute. Three of us agree that a chicken has ONE 
breast. The fourth member insists there are two breasts. Sorry if I 
selected the wrong category--wasn't sure if this belonged in agricultural, 
anatomy, or zoology--and, by the way, what's the correct pronunciation of 
the latter, zoology? Thank you for your answers...
