Lab Exam 1 Flashcards
Originated as dermal bone that formed the armour of ostracoderms, in later groups these bones would fuse to form the top and front of the skull along with the jaw
Dermatocranium
Arches 3-7, have Gill rakers and gill rays protruding out of them. Support the gills of the shark
Gill arches
upper articulation point of the jaw in Osteichthyes, derived from the ossified platoquadrate
Quadrate Bone
a copulatory organ, is a posterior extension of the medial aspect of the pelvic fin
Claspers
Modified and reduced versions of Meckel’s cartilage,Platoquadrate, and Hyomandibula respectively which are used in hearing
Malleus, Incus, and Stapes
Label the body cavity of the shark
A) liver
B) Gall bladder
C) Bile duct
D)Pancrease
E)Cloaca/ anus
F)Colon
G) Spleen
H) Pylorus
I) body of stomach
opening into the pharynx and lies posterior to each eye which take in water and ventilate the gills
Spiracle
Chondrocranium
It surrounds and provides support for the brain and sense organs
Complete lack of teeth
Edenate
Lower jaw bone for Shark,Salmon,Alligator, and Cougar
Shark:Meckels cartilidge,
Salmon; Dentosplenial,
Alligator: Dental Splenial,
Cougar: Boundy of dentary
Label the urogential system of a male shark
A)Esophogus
B) Testis
C)Acriphrenic duct
D)Kidney
E)Acessory urinary duct
F)Urogenital papilla
G)Claspers
H)Siphon
I)Sperm sac
J)Seminal vesicles
Flow of blood from heart to gills to body
Sinus veinousus→Atrium-Ventricle→ Conus arterious→ Ventral aorta→ Afferent brachial artieries→pretrematic and post trematic arteries which form the collector loop→efferent branchial artery→dorsal aorta→BODY
Parts of the skull originated as cartilage to protect the brain and sensory systems, it forms the back and underside of the skull, has been ossified in later groups
Chondrocranium
Blade like teeth used for slicing or chopping and are used by carnivores
Secodont
a fibrous sac that encloses the heart and great vessels
Pericardium
covers the outside of the root and cements the root of the tooth into the socket
Cement
Blood vessel responsible for supplying blood to the head
Hyoidean artery
a structure extending from the gill arch and separating two columns of filaments
Interbrachial septa
Dentition and diet
- Opossum have unspecialized teeth, molar like but with slightly raised ridges
- Carnivores have secodont teeth with less teeth overall and reduced front teeth
- Herbivores are Selenodonts with large gaps between the incisiors and molars
- Herbivores rodents have long front teeth and lophodont back teeth with no canines
- Omnivores have Bonodont teeth and 3 different dentition types
Outer portion of the crown
Enamel
Single piece of cartilage which composes the upper jaw of a shark
Plataoquadrate
Ossifed derivative of Meckel’s cartilage which articulates the lower jaw in Osteichthyes
Articular bone
a chamber into which the urinary, reproductive, and digestive tracts exit.
Cloaca
upper portion of the tooth that is above the gum composed of enamel and dentine
Crown
