25
do lancelets have all 4 characteristics
yes
26
what type of feeders are tunics and lancelets
filter feeders
27
who dont have a true heart
lancelets
28
the first vertebrates to evolve were fish called what
ostracoderms
29
what time period did the ostracoderms appear in
the Cambrian Period
30
when did the ostracoderms become extinct
at the end of the Devonian Period
31
ostracoderms were what
jawless invertebrate fish
32
what were anomalocaris
the largest ostracoderm at 3 ft.
33
what happened during the Silurian Period
- development of scales and sharp, spiny fins - jaws hold teeth and jaw muscles began to appear
34
what were the first bony fish
osteichthyans
35
when did the osteichthyans evolve
at the end of silurian period
36
what are lampreys
- lots of teeth - jawless
37
what is pheromone
chemical give off by male or female to attract other gender
38
what are hagfish
- jawless - no true eyes - makes knot in stomach in order to eat - mucus can suffocate fish and it is a protein
39
during what period were the fish most abundant
Devonian Period
40
what is another name for the Devonian Period
the Age of Fish
41
when did fish develop fins
the devonian period
42
what is a bony part inside of the fin that turns into legs
girdles
43
why do mudskippers have to replenish oxygen to eggs
for cellular respiration
44
what fish jumps to attract mates
mudskipper
45
true or false: fish swallow things whole and they don't chew
true
46
what are the three main groups of fish
carlangeous true bone jawless
47
what are the carlangeous fishes
sharks and rays and they have evolved a skeleton made of strong cartilage
48
what are the true bone fish
- bony fish called lobe-finned - have fleshy fins from which the limbs of chordates would evolve
49
what are jawless fish
- do not have true teeth or jaws - hagfish and lampreys
50
what are the 3 layers fish need to have in order to have true teeth
1. enamal 2. dentin 3. cementum
51
what are the 6 modes of feeding in fishes
1. herbivores - eat plants 2. carnivores - eat meat 3. parasitic - lampreys/sucks nutrients from host 4. filter-feeders - lancelets and tunicates 5. detritus - goldfish/eat dead things 6. optimistic - eat everything
52
food is further processed in finger like pouches called what
pyloric ceca
53
what is the pyloric ceca
ABSORBS nutrients though diffusion
54
what does the stomach do
secretes/produces hydrochloric acid
55
what is the pancreas
makes insulin and is a digestive enzyme
56
what does the liver do
produces bile and stores it in the gallbladder
57
what are the three functions that bile serves as
1. absorption of lipids and fats 2. neutralizes hydrochloric acid from stomach 3. ensures that absorbed toxins are returned to intestine for excretion
58
what is emulsification
the process of breaking down lipids into small pieces
59
the swim bladder does what
fills bladder with oxygen and when the bladder is inflated the fish is pushed to surface
60
fish exchange gases using what
gills
61
the arrangement of capillaries in a fish gills allows for what
countercurrent exchange
62
what are lungfish
- they adapt to oxygen - if there is a drought they bury themselves in mud - can live without water for months - creates hard cacoon - modified swim bladder to breath
63
how do fish breathe
Fish take water into their mouth, passing the gills just behind its head on each side
