Chordata characteristics
|
-pharyngeal gills
-notochord -dorsal,tubular nerve chord -endostyle -post anal tail |
|
Urochordata (Tunicates)
|
-most benthic (live on bottom water) but some pelagic (live on open sea)
-use pharyngeal basket to filter water -tadpole larva possess all chordate characteristic |
|
Cephalochordata (Lancelets)
|
-bury themselves underwater
-pharangeal baskets |
|
Vertebrata
|
-fishes (6) and tetrapods (3 terrestrial)
-presence neural crest tissue derived from ectoderm. forms most of brain (cephalization) "new head" (all) -vertebral coumn. replaces notochord (not lampreys) -2 pair appendages (nt lamprey +hagfish) -bone -circulatory system |
|
Jawless fish (hagfish + lamprey)
|
-touch skin w/o appendages
-no appendeges, still have notochord |
|
Jawed fish (cartilaginous and bony)
|
modification of skeleton rod in gill slits, considered greatest advance vertebrae
|
|
Cartilaginous fish (chondrichthyes)
|
-composed of cartilage, have no bone
-sharks and rays -internal fertilization -tooth like denticles |
|
Bony Fish (ray finned, lobe finned)
|
-ray finned have swim bladders from lungs. unjointed appendages.
-lung/lobefish have gills and lungs. characteristic of tetrapods. |
|
Transition to land (amniotes/tetrapods)
|
-skin, protect from dessication
-lungs-manage gas exchange. -claws/nails -internal fertilization -amniotic egg. shell+membranes allow prevent dessication+gas exchange -kidney-excrete waste, recycle water -air breahting young. -endothermy-regulate body temp -hair, feather -parenteal care |
|
amphibians
|
-first to reach land
-frog, salamander, toad,caecilians -mucous glands keep skin moist and cutaneous gas exchange -ectothermic-source of body heat external -poikilothermic-have body temp vary w/ external environment -jelly like eggs that allow dessication |
|
amniotes (reptile, bird, mammal)
v anamniote (fish+amphibian) |
-four embryonic emembranes that protect embryo in fluid
|
|
Reptiles (turtle, snake, lizard, alligator)
|
-keratin in scales prevent water loss. waterproof skin
-efficient excretory system to retain water -claws and nails -internal fertilization |
|
birds
|
-homeothermic endotherms - heat maintained internally
-hollow bone w/ support, reduction of bones, wing, feather) -hard eggs |
|
Mammals
|
-hair
-endothermic -mammary glands produce milk -heterodont dentition-teeth have different function +shape |
|
Three type mammals
seperated by reproduction |
-monotremes- echidnas +platypus. amniotic eggs but suckle w/ mammary glands
-marsupials- birth to altrical (underdeveloped) young. complete development in pouch. -placentals-placenta |
