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
