what are teeth capped with
|
enamel
|
|
where are teeth thought to have originated from
|
the bony armour of primitive fish
|
|
teeth are unique to
|
vertebrates, invertebrates do not have teeth
|
|
enamel
|
hardest substance in the body
enamel laid down just once in a lifetime |
|
dentin
|
resembles bone but is harder
forms wall of pulp cavity dentin laid down slowly throughout the life of an individual |
|
cementum
|
rests upon dentin
|
|
odontoblast bodies
|
lay down the component parts of dentin
|
|
PDL
|
periodental ligament is a thick bundle of collagenous fibers that connects the cementum
covered root to the bone of the socket |
|
thecodont teeth
|
teeth in sockets
like in alligators and humans |
|
acrodont teeth
|
attach on the occlusal surface of bones
snakes |
|
pleurodont teeth
|
attach to the side
lizard |
|
polyphyodont
|
continuous replacement of teeth
|
|
diphyodont
|
only 2 generations of teeth
mammals |
|
mammals have 4 basic types of teeth
|
canines
incissors molars(cheek teeth) premolars |
|
distinction between molars and premolars
|
molars only have 1 generation and never shed
|
|
homodont teeth
|
all about the same size and shape
|
|
heterodont teeth
|
different sizes and shapes
mammals |
|
how do teeth develop
|
interactions between the epidermis(ectoderm) and underlying dermis(mesoderm)
Part of the epidermis invaginates into the dermis to form an enamel organ whose cells produce enamel |
|
ameoblasts
|
cells that produce enamel
|
|
ruminants do not have
|
upper incissors
|
|
we see continuous replacement in herbivores
|
because they have to chew their food more finely
|
|
brachydont teeth
|
relatively close to the gum line. These are found in animals that eat meat
|
|
Hypsodont teeth
|
teeth rise up relatively far up from the gum line. We see these in animals that chew plant material
|
|
bunodont teeth
|
in primates
|
|
pedicillate teeth
|
synapomorphies of living amphibians
consist of a tooth crown and base both composed of dentine separated by a layer of uncalcified dentine |
|
walrus tusks develop from
|
canines
|
|
narwhal tusks develop from
|
upper left incissors
|
|
sectorial(scissors like teeth)
|
teeth are seen in tarsiers, whereas porpoises have peg-like teeth. Teeth are absent in adult anteaters and baleen whales.
|
|
dermal papilla eventually becomes the
|
pulp
|
|
beavers
|
grow teeth continously
|
|
elephants
|
replace teeth continously
|
|
labryrinthodont teeth
|
In fossil crossopterygian fishes and in the earliest fossil tetrapods, the enamel and dentine was highly infolded into complicated patterns
|
|
Moray eel have
|
second set of teeth called pharyngeal teeth
|
|
Herbivores have a longer intestine because
|
the nature of plant material is not as nutritious from a protein type stand point, so since it needs to be large and thin
|
|
allantosis
|
connects embryonic yolk
|
|
embryonic digestive system forms from
|
ectodermal and endodermal tissues
|
|
palates are only in
|
tetrapods
|
|
compare large intestine to small intestine
|
large intestine, like the small intestine, contains intestinal glands (producing secretions to aid in digesting food), but the large intestines do not have villi
|
|
Fundus
|
area of stomach located above entrance of the stomach
|
|
lactiles absorb
|
long chain fatty acids
|
|
villi project
|
above the level of the mucousal wall
|
|
intestinal glands are
|
sunken in the mucosal wall
|
|
spiral valves
|
increase the length of the route through the digestive tract
|
|
Bolus
|
bite of food
|
|
when the spiral valve is absent, the intestine is
|
often lengthened, like in the perch
|
|
cecum
|
is a place that can house microbes to assist in digestion. So we expect to the cecum be longer and more complex in herbivorous animals
|
|
gizzard
|
present in reptiles and some birds. Highly muscularized portion of the digestive system that enables them to break cell walls and also to grind their food material. A gizzard contains little stones and so the food goes into the gizzard and the stones work like a grinding surface to grind the food, since birds do not have teeth to chew up the teeth.
|
|
gastroliths
|
stones of the gizzard
|
