Q

What is the main characteristic of craniates?

A
  1. cranium: protective bony or cartilaginous housing enclosing the brain
  2. Neural crest: embryonic cells that will disperse throughout the embryo and lead to the formation of cranium, jaws, teeth, and peripheral nerves.

Q

Where does hinged jaw developed from?

A

Hinged jaw developed from pharyngeal arches and cartilaginous rods. (the original function of these were to flank the gill slits, and support the respiratory gill tissues)

Q

What are the characteristic of the teeth and the skin of shark?

A
  • Sharks possess a rough placoid scales on the skin which contain calcified tissue

17
Q

Characteristic of shark’s gill slit

A
  • Shark possess naked gill slits.
  • Oxygenated water enters the mouth and flow over gills for gas exchange.
  • Most sharks lack mechanism for pumping water over gills.
18
Q

The body of the shark

A
  • The body of the shark is denser than water.
  • It lacks swim bladder.
  • Oil filled liver
19
Q

Swim bladder, oil filled liver

A

provide buoyancy to bony fish.

20
Q

Characteristic of shark’s heart

A
  • Two chambered heart, it has one atrium and one ventricle.

- Closed circulatory system that employs single circulation.

21
Q

The circulation of blood

A
  1. Atrium collect blood, which empties into the ventricle
  2. ventricle pump blood to the gill for oxygenation
  3. blood flows to body tissues before returning to the heart.
22
Q

Shark sensation

A
  1. smell sensation: shark have powerful smell sensation via paired nares and olfactory bulbs
  2. pressure sensation: shark have system of microscopic sensory organs that detect pressure wave from movement in water (lateral line)
  3. electrical sensation: shark can detect electrical impulses of other animals. (Ampullae of Lorenzini)
23
Q

Fertilization in shark

A
  • Pelvic fin of males has a pair of claspers for transforming sperm to the female.
  • Other species are oviparous.
24
Q

ovoviviparous

A

Egg retained in mother’s body and sustained by yolk until ready to hatch.

25
Q

viviparous

A

Eggs developed in uterus and is nourished by maternal tissue via placenta.

26
Q

Classes of osteichthyes

A
  1. ray-finned fish
  2. coelacanths
  3. lungfish
27
Q

Features of bony fish differ from Chondrichthyes

A
  1. Bondy skeleton
  2. operculum
  3. swim bladder
28
Q

Operculum

A

protective flap that covers the gills.

29
Q

Fertilization of bony fish

A

Most reproduce via external fertilization.

30
Q

Where does bony fish spawn?

A

Many fish spawn in shallow, costal waters, or freshwater streams rich in food and oxygen.

31
Q

Anadromous fish

A

fishes that lives in marine but migrate to freshwater to spawn.

32
Q

How many fin does Ray finned fish have?

A

It possess paired pectoral, pelvic, and dorsal fins, a single caudal fin, and a single anal fin.

33
Q

How the fin of the ray finned fish is supported?

A

Fins are supported by thin, bony, flexible rays controlled by muscles in the interior of the body.

34
Q

Dermal scales of ray finned fish

A

The overlapping dermal scales are coated with slimy mucus to reduce the friction during swimming.

35
Q

What is the function of the muscles of operculum?

A

The muscles of operculum forces the water over the gills, allowing bony fish to breath when not moving.

36
Q

What class of bony fish is the most successful fish?

A

class of ray finned fish.

37
Q

How the fin of the Lobe-finned fish is supported?

A

They are supported by limb-like skeletal extensions of the pectoral and pelvic areas and controlled by muscle inside fins.

38
Q

what is the closest relative to Lobe-finned fish?

A

The closest relative are tetrapods

39
Q

Feature of coelacanth fish

A

it has jointed head like land vertebrates

40
Q

Where do lungfish prefer to stay in?

A

They live in oxygen poor freshwater swamps and ponds

41
Q

How do lungfish breathe?

A

They posses both gills and lungs (gulp air for gas exchange)

42
Q

Which fish will drown if they are in water?

A

lungfish will drown if they can’t breath.
