Vertebrates Pre-reading Assignment PDF

Summary

This document contains a pre-reading assignment on the origin and evolution of vertebrates. It includes questions on key concepts like gnathostomes, oviparous reproduction, and the difference between a cloaca and an anus. The text also includes diagrams and phylogenetic trees.

Chptr 11 34 THE ORIGIN AND EVOLUTION OF VERTEBRATES Pre-reading assignment What are gnathostomes? What does oviparous mean? How is the cloaca different from an anus? Are Caecilians snakes? Give reasons for your answer Where does the term “mammals” come from? DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CHORDATES AND ECHINODERMS CHORDATES ECHINODERMS Bilateral symmetry Adults pentaradial True endoskeleton to Calcareous plates which muscles are embedded in skin to attached which muscles are attached Locomotion by muscles Locomotion by tube attached to bones feet Nerve cord, notochord, Not present pharyngeal gill slits, post anal tail Phylogeny of living chordates Echinodermata ANCESTRAL Cephalochordata Chordates DEUTEROSTOME Urochordata Notochord Myxini Vertebrates Cyclostomes Common ancestor of chordates Petromyzontida Vertebrae Chondrichthyes Gnathostomes Actinopterygii Osteichthyans Jaws, mineralized skeleton Actinistia Lobe-fins Lungs or lung derivatives Dipnoi Lobed fins Amphibia Tetrapods Reptilia Amniotes Limbs with digits Amniotic egg Mammalia Milk © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Evolution of Vertebrates VERTEBRATES MAJOR CHARACTERISTICS OF VERTEBRATES 2. HEAD WITH BRAIN 1.VERTEBRAL COLUMN 3. HEART POWERED CLOSED CIRCULATORY SYSTEM EVOLUTION OF THE JAW 1st vertebrates were jawless fish (Extant classes: Myxini and Cephalaspidomorphi) Jawed fish evolved from the jawless fish FISHES 1. Vertebral column 2. Jaws and paired appendages 5 classes 3. Internal gills Cl Myxini 4. Efficient blood circulation Cl Petromyzontida (Cephalaspidomorp hi) Cl Chondrichthyes Cl Actinopterygii Cl Actinistia (Sarcopterygii) Cl Dipnoi HAGFISH Cl: Myxini LAMPREY Cl: Petromyzontida Slime glands © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc. Cl: CHONDRICHTHYES Improved jaws Cartilaginous skeleton Stream lined body Teeth Lateral line sense organs OSTEICHTHYES CL ACTINOPTERYGII CL SARCOPTERYGII CL: Ray-finned fishes Lobe-finned fishes ACTINISTIA Fin has parallel thin bony rays. No muscle Fin has a long muscular lobe supported by bones Cannot move fins independently of one Can move fins independently of one another another so can “walk” EG: COELACANTH S AND LUNG FISH EVOLUTION OF AMPHIBIANS: Discovery of a “fishapod”: Tiktaalik Shoulder bones Ribs Neck Scales Head Eyes on top of skull Humerus Flat skull “Wrist” Elbow Ulna Radius Fin Fin skeleton Fish Tetrapod Characters Characters Scales Neck Fins Ribs Gills and lungs Fin skeleton Flat skull Eyes on top of skull © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc. COMMON CHARACTERISTICS OF AMPHIBIANS Legs Lungs Cutaneous respiration Pulmonary veins present Divided heart and two circuits (pulmonary and systemic) Frogs and toads Salamanders Caecilians Smooth, moist skin Smooth, moist skin Smooth, moist skin or dry skin Long hind legs 4 legs No legs No tail Long tail Small or absent tail Teeth present Teeth present Teeth present Ext. fertilization Int. fertilization Int. fertilization Tadpole larva Axolotl larva Most are viviparous Common characteristics of Reptiles 1. Dry skin 2. Thoracic breathing 3. Amniotic egg 4. Internal fertilization 5.
