hollow dorsalnerve chord, muscular post-anal tail,perforated pharynx, notochord.
|
|
Cephalochordata??
|

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.
