challenges tetrapod’s faced when they first ventured to land
have a notochord and myotomes(muscle segments). all vertebrates fall into this group (ex: lancets and sea squirts)
chordate
animals with backbones (vertebrae)
vertebraes
fish with jaws. jaws evolved to increase the intake of oxygenated water and for prey/predation (ex: lungfish)
gnathostomes
jawless fish (ex: hagfish and lampreys)
agnathans
a synapsid vertebrae that is considered an ancestor of mammals
therapsids
ray-finned fishes
actinopterygii
cartilaginous fishes that have skeletons primarily composed of cartilage (shark)
chondrichthyes
arose at the end of the paleozoic and early mesozoic, ancestral to modern mammals, the most derived group of therapsids, dentition differentiated into incisors and canine:post canines with accessory capsules
cynodontia
bony fish
osteichthyes
lobe-finned fish
sarcopterygii
member of clade of tetrapods that have an amniotic egg containing specialized membranes that protect the embryo: mammals, birds, reptiles
amniotes
have hair, warm-blooded, mammary glands, and a more complex brain
major characteristics of mammals
animals (vertebraes) with four limbs
tetrapods
ectoderm
embryological origin of the brain and spinal cord
