|
bone
|

|
Actinopterygian

fishes
most diverse-25,000 species diversification was because of jaws (had 2) -oral jaws-capture food -pharyngeal jaws-process food bony skeleton |
|
Actinistia
|
Coelacanth
-has a big fin lobe that has skeletal elements |
|
Dipnoi
|
Lung fish
-had lungs |
|
Transition to land
|
-fins-> limbs
-support body weight verticle column needed to get stronger -respiration-gills and skin-> lungs -feeding-filter feeding and suction and biting-> biting always needed to learn how to duck |
|
Amphibia
|
tetrapoda
|
|
tiktaalik
|
could duck its head to bite
skeletal fins with fin over lays |
|
Why move to land?
|
-oxygen
-escape from predators -less competition for food -water evaporation |
|
Echinoderms have 5 lineages
|
1) sea cucumbers
2) feather stars 3) brittle stars these are filter/.deposit feeders 4)Asteroidea-starfish 5)echinoidea-sea urchins |
|
Asteroidea
|
1700 species
adults are not bilateral -carnivorous -eat porifera/cnidarians, mollusks, starfish and fish crown of thorns- eat coral and kills all living thengs living in coral gastropod mollusk called triton eats crown of thorns |
|
Echinoidea
|
sea urchins
-edible -herbavores-eat kelp |
|
Amphibians have how many lineages? and what are they?
|
Anerua- Frogs
Caudata- Salamandars Caecilia-caecilia |
|
Anura
|
-Frogs
-means no tail -8 vertabrae -has two life stages -adults are carnivorous -larvae (tadpoles) are herbavores and breath with gills underwater -external fertilization (oviparous) and they do amplexus -have a wide array of parental care -5000 plus species |
|
Amplexus
|
a form of external fertilization where the male latches onto the female and when the female lays the egg they lay sperm on the eggs
|
|
Caudata
|
-Salamanders
-means tail amphibians -have 4 equal sized legs -some are lungless and they get their oxygen through skin -skin is toxic -oviparious/viviparous/ovoviviparous -mostly external fertilization/ some internal -lacks intromittant organ -500 species |
|
Caecilia
|
-burrowers
-live world wide in humid tropics -some are aquatic in freshwatter -have internal fertilization -intromittant organ -very toxic skin -wide array of parental care |
|
Amniotic Egg
|
-allantois-waste bag
-albumin-holds water and keeps hydrated -chorion-encloses embryo, and creates placenta -not first time egg can survive on land, insect eggs could before -appeared in the carboniferous 340 mya |
|
First mamal like reptiles
|
300 mya
|
|
What is Endothermy?
|
generate and regulate their heat content
-very constant temperature -evolved more than once in birds and mammals |
|
What's great about Endothermy?
|
-allows for animals to eprform bodily functions at low temepratures
-necessary to invade cold places -enzymatic optimization: works best at certain temperatures |
|
Ectothermy
|
cannot regulate their temperature at constant temp
|
|
What's great about Ectothermy
|
saves energy
variable food supply(doesn't always have to eat) |
|
What do animals with endothermy need?
|
-high metabolism
-high energy -high respiration -large water loss |
|
What are turbinates
|
-flat bones in nose that drys and moistens to save water
|
|
Do birds have turbinates?
|
No, but they have long necks that serves the same purpose
|
|
Are dinosaurs endothermic?
|
1) don't have turbinates
2) but have long bird like necks 3) large lungs 4)Crocs also have large lungs 5)Dino fossils with four chambered heart 6) crocs also have 4 chambered hearts 7) rapid bone growth in dinosaurs 8)pterosaurs flew up and hard to fly without high metabollic rate |
|
Placenta
|
structure that allows mothers to exchange nutrients and gases with embryo
-highly vascularized and surrounded by uterus -allows to make hormones -has umbilical cord -evolved more than once |
|
Which mammals don't have placenta?
|
echinida-spiny anteater
duck billed platypus |
|
What do mammals have?
|
fur
mammalry glands usually do a lot of parental care |
|
Oviparity vs. Viviparity
|
Oviparity:-has lots of eggs
-lots of embryos -lots of young animals -small and tiny-->defenseless -lots die Viviparity-few young -large and well able to take care of themselves |
|
Ground up
|
dinos on ground-> evolve scaly wings->evolve wings with feathers
-1st non flying primitive wings for balance and catch prey more efficently -verticle territory -wing assisted incline running data-chick going up incline |
|
trees down
|
-transition form: small bird like dinos with partial non functioning wings
-evolved features tuft to barbs to barbules -feathers were used first for insulation |
|

closest ancestors and us
austrolopithecus, paranthropes, homos |

heavy jaw, ate grains
500 cc |
|
Different kinds of Homos
|
Homo Erectus, Homo Neanderthalis, and Homo Sapiens
|
|
Where did Homo Sapiens come from?
|
out of africa
we wiped out all hominis |
|
What is the Assimilation hypothesis
|
-start out in Africa
-cross bred with neanderthalis -neanderthalis was in europe and had cultural rituals -not many of the same alleles with homo neanderthalensis so we most likely wiped them out |
