Q

what are the SDTs for Vertebrates

A
  • bone or cartilage vertebrate that replaced notochord
  • 2 + Hox clusters (result of complete genome duplication and increased genetic complexity - > more complex body plan)
  • chordate character more evident in embryo

Q

SDTs for Tetrapods

A
  • 4 limbs with digits
  • neck
  • fused pelvic girdle (efficiently transmits forces through body) [there’s no buoyancy on land!]
17
Q

Basal Tetrapods

A

Amphibia

Terrestrial, but require moist environment

  • eggs laid in water
  • aquatic larva
  • thin, moist skin

Ex. frogs, toads, salamanders

18
Q

SDTs for Amniotes

A
  • amniotic egg (amnion: membrane that forms fluid-filled sac around embryo) [allows for completely terrestrial life]
  • ribcage ventilation (more efficient than through skin)
19
Q

Reptilia

A

Phylum Amniotes, Sister Taxon to Mammals

  • turtles, lizards, snakes, alligators
  • shelled eggs laid on land
20
Q

DTs of Mammals

A
  • mammary glands
  • give birth to live young (mostly)
  • hair, fat layer under skin -> retain heat
21
Q

what are the three groups of Mammals?

A
  1. monotremes
  2. marsupials
  3. eutharians
22
Q

monotremes

A

Basal Animals

  • lay eggs
  • have hair
  • produce milk, but no nipples

Platypus echidnas - only in Australia and New Guinea

23
Q

marsupials

A
  • give birth to live young
  • have nipples
  • born very early (complete their development while nursing, often in pouch)
  • Placenta: structure for nutrient exchange from mother to embryo

Oppossums, Kangaroos, Koalas

24
Q

Eutharians

A
  • “placental mammals” - have complex placenta
  • longer pregnancy than marsupials
  • complete their embryonic development in uterus
25
Q

DTs of Primates

A
  • large brain, short jaws
  • grasping hands/feet
  • forward facing eyes
  • high parental care
  • complex social behavior
  • monkeys, apes - fully opposable thumbs

contain lemurs, tarsiers, monkeys, apes

Primates Love Getting Free Hot Coffee and Frapps!

26
Q

what is the relation of humans and chimps?

A

we did not evolve from chimps. we share a recent CA with them

27
Q

Hominin

A
  • species on human “side” of human-chimp divergence 6-7 mya
  • all originated in Africa
  • Homo sapiens is only extant hominin, but many extinct species
28
Q

What are the ancestral Hominins?

A

Australopiths

~4 mya
-fully upright posture

29
Q

Genus Homo

A
  • appeared ~2.4 mya
  • Homo erectus (~1.8 mya) - 1st out of Africa
  • Homo neanderthalensis (~500-28kya) - Europe and Asia, descended from 2nd migration out of Africa
  • Homo sapiens, only extant species
30
Q

Modern Humans - Homo Sapiens characterisitics

A
  • ~2-300 kya, central Africa
  • bigger brains (almost 1.5L)
  • complex tools
  • fully bipedal traits
  • small jaw, “short” digestive system
  • language and symbolic thought
31
Q

Human Migration

A
  • Eastern Central Africa -> everywhere else- “Out of Africa”

- 3rd “Out of Africa” migration - interbred with other hominins
