deuterostomes II: vertebrates Flashcards
chordata
urochordata (tunicates)
cephalochordata (amphioxus)
vertebrates
main rule of vertebrae
big size
key to growing larger of vertebrae
- closed blood system (oyxgen delivry through veins/arteries)
- vertebral column (skeletons); some are made of cartilage/dynamic bone to absorb mechanical pressures and locomotion
- sophisticated brain and sense organs
- protective skulls
sense organ developmetn in vertebrae
visual (paired eyes)
chemical (olfatory sense organs)
mechanical (deteching pressure)
brain ands skull region
neuralation
embryonic develpoment of neural crest and skulls to have protected head region
major mutaiton in vertbrae
doubling of genome of chordates to vetrbrates; results in great diveristy of genes
vetebrae backboned animal classifications (traditional)
fish ambhibians reptiles birds mammals
first vertabrae
fish like, without jaws
surviving jawless fish
lampreys and hafgihes
three evolutionary lineages from the jawless fish
- chondrichthyans
- actinoptergyians
- sacropterygians
chondrichythans
sharks with carligenous skeletons
actinopterygians
ray finned fish; most fish
sacropterygian
lobe finned fish; became tetrapods and coelacanths
strong skeletel structure in flesh fins
tetrapod
animal with 4 limbs; aphibians, reptiles, birdds, mammals
lampreys
- sucker lipe cup with sharp teeth to suck fish blood
- have tidal gills (water drawn in and explled)
- larvae have unidirectional flow of water through gills lits
- live in shallwo rivers and live on food in decaying matter; go through metaphorisis and migrate to sea
- lack paired fins
hagfish
lack jaws; instead have sucker with tentacles and retravtable tongue
- prey on invertebrates (worms) and dead larger animals
- lack paired fins
- vetrbal column rudigemntary
- slime masters; have pores that relase slime
feature of living jawed fish
pectoral and pelvic fins
jaws
craniate
hagfish, lampreys and jawed verebrates
embryonic development of jaws
neural crest cells move into hindbrain where gills are supported by skeletol supports; e.g. mandivular arch
therefore; jaws from gills
sharks
- cartligeneous fish
- chondrichtynan
- upper jaw not fused to skull; portruding jaws
- sensitive and directional sense of smell
- vision/mechanical sensing of britations
- have temporar blindness and electroreceptors
- have a GIANT LIVER for neutral boyancy using oil
cartilgenous fish
sharks, rays, dogfish, skate, ratfish
actinoptergyian examples
cod, eels, tuna, goldfish, catfish, trouth (24000 species); the rayfinned
actinoptergian features
- ray fins
- unpaired/paired fish (Both)
- two sets of paired fins; pectoral and pelvic
- have tiny bony rays for manouvearibiltiy
- variations of fins (lion fish have benom)
- have a SWIM BLADDER
- complex head; jaws can swing sideways
- some suction feed and pump water across gills
swim bladder
gas filled cavity for bouyancy in fish
- enhances hearing
- attracts males
