Skin/Devo Flashcards
Protostomes
mouth develops first, includes annelids, arthropods, molluscs
deuterostomes
anus develops first, echinoderms, hemichordates, chordates
urochordates
the tunicates (sea squirts)
cephalochordates
have a head end, filter feed, pump blood with brachial buds ie. amphioxus
craniates
have neural crest cells, skulls, vertebrae, sense organs on head from neural placode
chordates ALL have (at some point)..
notochord, pharyngeal slits and cilia, endostyle/thyroid, dorsal neural tube, and post-anal tail
synapomorphy
common traits of a group that separate it from other groups
agnathans
jawless fish (lamprey, hagfish)- no bones or appendages
chondrichthyes
cartilaginous fishes ie sharks, rays, chimera. no lungs or swim bladder, buoyant liver. have placoid (teeth) scales
osteichthyes
bony fish superclass (actin- and sarc-)
actinopterygii
ray finned fish- teleosts
eutherians
placental mammals
ontogeny
process of development
early development steps
ovum/sperm, fertilization, cleavage (2 cells), morula (8 cell stage), blastula, to gastrulation (endoderm and ectoderm form)
recapitulation theory
Haeckel thought embryos went thru their phylogenetic past during development
developmental hourglass
mid embryo development organisms look similar but before and after that they look different
asexual chordates
tunicates and some hemichordates
vitellogenesis
addition of yolk platelets
microlecithal animals
amphioxus (fast development), eutherians
mesolecithal animals
cartilaginous fish, amphibians
macrolecithal animals
bony fish, reptiles, birds, monotremes
holoblastic cleavage
the whole egg divides/multiplies (eutherians, amphibians)
meroblastic cleavage
the yolk doesn’t multiply but the embryo does (monotremes, fish, reptiles)
coelum
spaces in mesoderm cells during gastrulation
