| What do sea squirts, lampreys, and amphibians have in common? | They go through metamorphosis from larva to adult. |
| What do red blood cells do? | Carry oxygen in the blood |
| What protein gives red blood cells their color? | Hemoglobin |
| Frogs and toads are uncoordinated, moving their muscles in a jerky manner. Which brain lobe is small in amphibians? | Cerebellum, which controls muscle movement. |
| An owl has very sensitive vision, so which brain lobes are larger in the owl compared to average vertebrates. | Optic lobes |
| A creature reproduces when the female receives sperm from the male and then lays an egg which hatches. What type of fertilization and development is this? | Internal fertilization and oviparous development |
| Which has the most inflexible skeleton: a ray, a lamprey, or a salmon? | Salmon |
| What do Atlantic salmon and many lampreys have in common? | They are anadromous |
| What is the shark's most sensitive means of finding prey? | Electrical field sensor |
| What function does the lateral line perform in sharks and bony fish? | Senses vibrations in the water |
| What function do the dorsal fins perform in both sharks and bony fish? | Balance |
| What function does the anterior dorsal fin play in bony fish? | Defensive weapon |
| What is the major difference between the tail of a ray and the tail of a skate? | Rays have thin, whiplike tails, while skates have thicker, fleshy tails. |
| Identify structures in fish figures. | Review with blank templates. |
| Function of gills | Exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen between the water and the blood. |
| Function of heart | Pumps blood |
| Function of liver | Makes bile for the digestion of fats and does many other chemical tasks |
| Function of gall bladder | Concentrates and stores bile |
| Function of pyloric ceca | Secretes digestive enzymes and chemicals that break down food in the stomach |
| Function of intestine | Digests food |
| Function of gonad | Reproduction |
| Function of anus | Expelling of undigested food |
| Function of brain | Controls nervous system |
| Function of esophagus | Sends food to stomach |
| Function of stomach | Stores and breaks down food |
| Function of spinal cord | Sends messages from brain to other parts of the body and vice-versa |
| Function of kidney | Cleans blood of waste products |
| Function of air bladder | Allows fish to change depths and float in water |
| List the six common characteristics of amphibians. | Endoskeleton made mostly of bone; Skin is smooth with many capillaries and pigments; Two pairs of limbs with webbed feet; Have as many as four organs of respiration; Three-chambered heart; Oviparous with external fertilization |
| What is the difference between a frog and a toad? | Frogs have smooth, wet skin and live near water. Toads have dry, warty skin and need not live near water. |
| For most amphibians, what is the major respiratory organ? | Skin |
| Name two chordates that have a larval stage as part of their life cycles. | Lampreys, lancelets, sea squirts, frogs, toads, salamanders |
| What protein allows red blood cells to perform their function? | Hemoglobin |
| In the circulatory system figure of the fish, know whether each arrow is pointing to a vein or artery. Know whether each is oxygen rich or oxygen poor. | The picture isn't colored, so you will need to know by location. |
