Lamprey

QuestionAnswer
Lamprey Phylum Chordata
Lamprey Subphylum Vertebrata
Lamprey Infraphylum Agnatha
Lamprey Order Cyclostomata
Oral Hood - Larvae covering of lamprey mouth
Oral Tentacles - larvae small sensory organs found in mouth
velum - larvae diverts food into esophagus
spinal cord - larvae above notochord, stained darker
notochord - larvae/adult elastic rod-like structure that allows the organism structure and flexibility
myomeres - larvae blocks of skeletal muscle found at the top of the organism
brain - larvae darker stained area by eye, comes off of spinal cord
anus - larvae where waste is disposed of, found at the base of the tail
caudal fin - larvae very last fin on the tail portion of the organism
eye spot - larvae darker stained spot near brain region, primitive eye/sensory organ
heart - larvae circulates blood. appears to be an empty looking area behind gill slits
intestine - larvae dark stained tube on the ventral side of the animal. absorbs and disposes of nutrients
esophagus - larvae/adult takes in food, found directly on top of or near liver.
endostyle (subpharyngeal gland) - larvae functions as primitive thyroid, found in dark stained area below gill slits
nostril (f) - adult takes in olfactory input. lampreys only have one located on the dorsal side of the animal
pineal cornea (f) - adult provides stimulus to the pineal gland, which helps regulate the circadian rhythm. white/clearish area located behind the nostril/nares.
eye - adult takes in visual stimulation
buccal funnel - adult refers to entire mouth area which is lined with keratinized "teeth"
teeth - adult projections located in the buccal cavity. not true teeth as they do not have an enamel. made of keratin.
tongue - adult raspy with teeth like projections, located in the middle of the mouth
external gill slits - adult dots/holes located on the outside of the organism
anterior dorsal fin - adult dorsal fin located closest to the front of the organism
posterior dorsal fin - adult dorsal fin located closer to the back of the organism
caudal fin - adult furthest fin on the organism
lateral line system (f) - adult small light dots near the face. assists in sensing movement, vibration, and pressure within the water.
cloaca - adult used in reproduction, located on the ventral side of the organism near the base of the tail
urogenital papillae - adult projection located near the cloaca
internal gill slits - adult slits within the gill organ located within the respiratory tube
brain - adult gap located behind the nostril on the dorsal side of the animal, interprets sensory input
olfactory sac - adult receives sensory input from nares/nostril, located when you probe inside the nostril
pineal gland (f) - adult helps regulate circadian rhythm, located beneath pineal cornea in the white or light portion behind nostril
buccal papillae - adult small projections on the edge of the buccal funnel
velum (f) - adult diverts food into esophagus, found by probing respiratory tube
respiratory tube - adult helps organism respirate, velum is located here, determine by looking for circles that lead to the external gill slits
heart - adult circulates blood throughout the organism. located in a "gap" just behind the internal gills
liver - adult filters waste from the organism's bloodstream, located behind the heart
gonad - adult intertwined with intestine in organism, holds reproductive system, females have small dots while males look flappy
intestine - adult found on top of gonads, small strip, transports food waste to anus
dorsal hollow nerve cord - adult dorsal to notochord, smaller and more clear strip on top of the notochord - becomes the central nervous system
myomere - adult solid blocks of muscles located on the dorsal side of the organism
myosepta - adult the dividing pieces that divide the myomeres on the dorsal side of the organism
branchial pouch - adult respiratory cavity
gill lamellae - adult filaments on the gills
epidermis outermost layer of skin, provides barrier to infection and against the outside world
dermis second layer of skin, contains blood vessels, hair follicles, nerves and fat cells
hypodermis/subcutaneous layer third layer of skin, helps insulate and protect the body as well as store fat
dermal papillae projections of epidermal cells that increase the strength of the connection between the epidermis and dermis. They are found in the superficial portion of the dermis, near the stratum basale of the epidermis
basement membrane a thin, pliable sheet-like type of extracellular matrix that provides cell and tissue support and acts as a platform for complex signalling. The basement membrane sits between epithelial tissues including mesothelium and endothelium
placoid scale - shark tiny, tough scales that cover the skin of elasmobranches, or cartilaginous fish, such as sharks, rays, and skates. They are like teeth covered with hard enamel and have a v-shaped structure that reduces drag and increases turbulence
spine - shark outer covering of the placoid scale
basal plate - shark end part of the placoid scale
pulp cavity - shark inner part of the placoid scale
dermal scale - bony fish bony plates that fit closely together or overlap and form the dermal skeleton
mucous gland - bony fish provide the skin/scales with a mucousy covering
