|
- eumetazoa -> triploblastic -> deuterostome -> chordate -> craniates

|
amphibians
|
- eumetazoa -> triploblastic -> deuterostome -> chordate -> vertebrate -> gnathosomes -> oteichthyans -> tetrapods -> amphibians
- gas exchange over skin - eggs need to be kept moist |
|
amniotes
|
- eumetazoa -> triploblastic -> deuterostome -> chordate -> vertebrate -> gnathosomes -> oteichthyans -> tetrapods -> amniotes
- have amniotic eggs - reptiles/ birds and mammals |
|
amniote adaptations for land
|
- amniotic eggs
- breathing aided by rib cage muscles |
|
reptiles and birds
|
- eumetazoa -> triploblastic -> deuterostome -> chordate -> vertebrate -> gnathosomes -> oteichthyans -> tetrapods -> amniotes -> reptiles and birds
- reptiles are ectothermic - rely on their environment to regulate body tempterature - birds are endothermic - constant body temperature. |
|
mammals
|
- eumetazoa -> triploblastic -> deuterostome -> chordate -> vertebrate -> gnathosomes -> oteichthyans -> tetrapods -> amniotes -> mammals
- characteristics: milk, hair, differentiated teeth, endothermic |
|
mammal classification
|
- monotremes
- marsupials - eutherians |
|
monotremes
|
- only in australia and new guinea
- lay eggs - platypus and echidnas |
|
marsupials
|
- placenta nourish the young
- give birth to live young early in development - opossum, tasmanian devil, kangaroo |
|
eutherians
|
- more complex placenta than marsupials
- placental mammals - longer pregnancy - complete embryonic development within the uterus |
