Chordata characteristics??

Notochord• Dorsal nerve chord• Segmented Postanal tail• Endostyle• Pharyngeal Gill slits
Urochordata??
Tunicates, sea squirts ,ascideans. Marine sessile filter feeders with aperforated pharynx. Motile larva.Metamorphoses into adult.
Urochordata Larva vertebrate –like characteristics??
hollow dorsalnerve chord, muscular post-anal tail,perforated pharynx, notochord.
Cephalochordata??
Amphioxus/lancelet

hollow dorsal nerve chord, muscular post-anal tail, perforated pharynx, notochord + myomeres

what determines if an organism is a proto or deuterostome??

the fate of theblastopore in the embryo which indeuterostomes becomes the anus whereas inprotostomes it becomes the mouth
Anatomical Vertebrate characteristics??
1. Vertebral Column• 2.Cranium• 3. Multilayered epidermis• 4.Endothelium lining the blood vessels

Embryological Vertebrate characteristics??

1. Neural crest cells-Migratory cells giving rise to arange of structures2. Hox genes. Responsible for increased geneticinteraction leading to greater structural complexity.3. Placodes- formation of cranial nerves andcomplex sense organs.4. Formation of Micro RNA’s responsible for derivedvertebrate structures such as the liver and kidney

Fundamental patterns in coelomate development in Protostomes

Blastopore = mouth


spiral cleavage


schizocoelic coelom


Ectodermal skeleton



Fundamental patterns in coelomate development in Deuterostomes

Blastopore = anus


Radial Cleavage


Enterocoelic coelom


Mesodermal skeleton

Early Vertebrates had??
Distinct head• Tripartite brain• Chondocranium• Gills used for respiration rather than filterfeeding.
