**Chapter 34 Vertebrates Quiz (10 pts) Name\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_** 1. What selective advantaged did the notochord give the early chordates? 2. What structures do the neural crest cells form in humans? 3. All chordates have pharyngeal arches, at least in embryonic stages. What do they form in bony fish vs what they form in humans? 4. What is the difference between the fin bones and muscles in a ray-finned fish and a lobe-finned fish? 5. What big evolutionary advantage did the amniotic egg give to reptiles? 6. What are the three clades of mammals, and which traits are different between them? 7. Which other orders of mammals are most closely related to primates? 8. Birds have many derived characters, some are shared with Theropod dinosaurs. Name one trait that is shared with dinosaurs, and one that is unique to birds. 9. What are the derived characters that all primates share? 10. Name 3 traits that are found in humans, but not the other apes (shared derived characters).
