QuestionAnswer
what are the organisms of phylum Enchinodermata sea stars/brittle stars/urchins/sea cucumbers
characteristics of phylum Enchinodermata very slow moving or sessile
synaphomorphies of phylum Enchinodermata endoskeleton made of calcareous plates, secondary, penta-radial symmetry(bilateral symmetry as larvae), specialized water vascular system to pump water into body
example of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Asteroidea sea stars
characteristics of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Asteroidea endoskeleton plates loosely fused together to allow flexibility, tube feet on each arm(locomotion), digestive organs & gonads located in arms, stomach in central disk
what are the tube feet on sea stars used for locomotion
describe the water vascular system in sea stars 1) madreporite 2) stone canal 3) distributed with radial canal 4) each radial canal leads into ampillae
what does the madreporite do filter that allows water into the water vascular system
what does the stone canal do transports water from madreporite to ring canal (around central disk)
what does the radial canal do distributes water to each of the 5 arms
what does ampillae do pushes water out of the tube feet
example of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Ophiroidea brittle stars
characteristics of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Ophiroidea more defined central disk, digestive glands/gonads in central disk, tube feed projections, slender distinctive arms, crawl with arms
how are the tube feet in sea stars and brittle stars different are used for locomotion in sea stars and in brittle stars they lack suckers b/c they are used for chemo sensory and NOT locomotion
example of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Holothuroidea sea cucumbers
characteristics of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Holothuroidea soft bodies (skeleton embedded in body wall), elongated body lacking arms, 5 or more longitudinal rows of tube feet, tentacles around mouth are modified tube feet
example of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Enchinoidea sea urchins/sand dollars (key hole urchin)
characteristics of Phylum Enchinodermata: Class Enchinoidea calcareous plates fused to form rigid skeleton, MAY have spines for protection, tube feet from 5 symmetrically placed rows along body for locomotion
what is important to not about Chordata was first a clade but now is referred to as a phylum
4 characteristics of Chordata notochord, dorsal hollow nerve cord, post anal tail, pharyngeal slits
what is important to note about the characteristics of Chordata they are not necessarily present in adult forms but are ALWAYS found in some parts of the organisms life
describe the notochord longitudinal & flexible rod located between digestive tube and nerve cord, composed of fibrous tissue to provide support throughout length of body, NOT the vertebral column of animals
describe the dorsal hollow nerve cord develops from ECTODERM germ line that rolls into a tube dorsal to the notochord, develops into BRAIN & SPINAL CORD
what is learned from previously studied animals and the dorsal hollow nerve cord nerve cord is solid and typically located ventrally
describe pharyngeal slits region posterior to mouth is the pharynx, embryos, develops into gills or lungs or ear structure, allows water to pass through the mouth and exit w/out going through digestive tract(fish)
for many chordates, what does the pharyngeal slits become develops into slits that open to the outside of the body; gills (fish/frogs), lungs and ear structure (humans)
what are the pharyngeal slits in aquatic vertebrates gill slits used for gas exchance
what are the pharyngeal slits in terrestrial vertebrates develop into parts of the ear
what do pharyngeal slit pouches become 1st become the jaw, 5th or 7th becomes the pathway to lungs, 3rd forms inner ear
describe the post anal tail extends posterior to the anus, is lost in embryonic development in most species, muscular in structure
example of Phylum Chordata: Subphylum Cephalochordata lancelets
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Subphylum Cephalochordata blade-like bodies that exhibit ALL 4 chordate characteristics as an adult (looks like an old razor blade)
example of Phylum Chordata: Subphylum Urochordata tunicates/ sea squirts
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Subphylum Urochordata sessile marine animals (as adults), larvae are free swimming and contain ALL 4 chordate characteristics, adult DOES NOT have a notochord, post anal tail, or nerve cord
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates chordates with a true head, head region with a skull containing a brain, eyes, and other sensory organs
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Urocordata: Class Myxini hagfish
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Urochordata: Class Myxini lack jaws and vertebrae, notochord provides structure, ALL 4 chordate characteristics, slime glands, mainly freshwater but some are marine
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata have a true head region and complete vertebral column, well-developed sensory system and an extensive skull that functions to protect head
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Petromyzontida lampreys
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Petromyzontida oldest lineage of extant vertebrates (jawless fish), fresh/marine parasites, feed=clamping onto fish, tongue to penetrate skin, all larvae in freshwater & resemble lancelet, cartilaginous skeleton w/ plates extending from notochord(resemble vertebrae)
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Chondricthyes sharks/skates/rays
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Chondricthyes cartilaginous fishes, no ossification(bone), jaws w/ teeth that originated from ectoderm, dermal denticles: homologous to teeth, internal fertilization: lay eggs(oviparous) or live birth(viviparous), negatively buoyant so the must swim or sink
what is important to note about Chondricthyes when on bottom when resting on bottom of ocean they use their jaw muscles to pump water over their gills for gas exchange
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Actinopterygii tilipia/bass/catfsh/grouper/etc...
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Actinopterygii ray-finned fish, fin supported by long flexible spines, gill links to circulatory system and protected by operculum, swim bladder for buoyancy control
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Sarcopterygii ONLY 4 species; coelacanth, lungfish
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Sarcopterygii lobe-finned fish, fins supported w/ rod-shaped bones surrounded by thick layer of muscles(humerus,radius,ulna(arm bones)), early species in shallow, brackish water w/ thick vegetation, fins can move b/c of muscle, can crawl or more vegetation out of way
what is important about the bones present in Sarcopterygii important evolutionary step gave rise to tetrapods
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Lissamphibia frogs/salamanders/caecilians
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Lissamphibia represented 1st group of tetrapods to begin colonizing land but still connected to water, have double life that includes an aquatic stage (larval tadpole) and terrestrial adult stage
why is class Lissamphibia connected to water no eggs w/ shell, breath through skin (cutaneous respiration), breeding (eggs are aquatic), feeding (may feed on aquatic insects
characteristics of tetrapods Gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates) with limbs
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Reptilia snakes/lizards/turtles/crocs/dinosuars
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Reptilia ECTOTHERMIC, presence of scales for protection, all groups have a high diversity, loss of dependence on water b/c they have lungs and an amniotic egg
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Aves birds
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Aves adaptations to flight, bones are "honey comb" making them lightweight, toothless w/ beak, forelimbs=wings developed from scales(controlled by large pectoral muscles(keen)), ENDOTHERMIC, efficient respiratory/circulatory systems (tissue w/ O2&nutrients)
example of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Mammalia mammals
characteristics of Phylum Chordata: Clade Craniates: Subphylum Vertebrata: Class Mammalia evolved from line of reptiles that survived K-T extinction, mammary glands to produce milk, hair and layer of fat under skin to retain body heat
what are the groups of mammals monotremes, marsupials, placentals
what are monotreme mammals egg layers, have characteristics of reptiles, birds, mammals
example of monotreme mammals duck-billed platypus
what are marsupial mammals early live birth before complete development
example of marsupial mammals opossums/kangaroos
what are placental mammals embryo joined to mother by placenta, long parental care
