Chapter 1 Flashcards
Chordata big 4
- Notochord
- Dorsal hollow CNS
- Postnatal tail
- Endostyle
What is an endostyle
Glandular groove in floor of pharynx
Taxonomic relationship of chordates and vertebrates
Kingdom Animalia Phylum chordata Subphylum urochordata Subphylum cephalochordata Subphylum craniata Hagfish Vertebrata
What animals have a notochord in embryo stage
Chordates
Chordates with a braincase
Craniates
Chordates with vertebrae
Vertebrates
What appears during embryonic development after the notochord has formed and replaces the notochord functionally
Vertebrae
3 components of craniate body
Head, trunk, and postnatal tail
What does the trunk contain
Cavity, coelom, body wall
Begins postanally
Present in all embryos
Variably reduced in different vertebrates
Tail
Vital region of all vertebrate embryos
Gives rise to respiratory structures, jaw components, endocrine glands, auditory components, initial immune cells
Pharynx
Tissue column that separate each pharyngeal slit or pouch and contain:
Supportive skeletal elements
Striated muscles to operate the arch
Cranial nerve branches
An aortic arch connecting dorsal and ventral aortas
Pharyngeal arches
Neutral tube formation process
Neurulation
Cranial and spinal nerves connecting CNS with various organs and tissues
PNS
Viscera and gut component
Open area with 2 compartments; upper and lower
Coelom
