Locomotion |
- Fish --> Fins - Bird --> Wings - Tetrapod --> Limbs |
|
Two Factors |
- Paired Fins or Paired Limbs - The Girdles |
|
Fins of Fishes |
- Membranous or Wet structures - Have fins rays that increase strength of fins - Fin Rays in Bony Fish (Lepidotrichia) - Dermal Fin Rays (Ceratotrichia) |
|
Origin of Paired Fins |
|
|
Two Different types |
Archipterygial Fins - Symmetrical Axis Metaterygial Fins - Asymmetrical Axis |
|
Theories |
- Gill/Arch
- Fin/Fold |
|

Ostracoderms (Most Extinct) |
Armored, Jawless Fish - Date back to the Cambrian - Disappeared in the Devonian |
|
Placoderms (Extinct) Bony Fish |
1st appeared in Cilorian Period Extinct group of powered jaws, fins & pectoral girdle |
|
Chondrichthyans (Cartilaginous Fish) |
