cleavage

• In both bilaterian groups, the egg begins to divide repeatedly after fertilization, a process termed _______, until the very young embryo is made up of many cells formed from the original single-celled egg.

spiral cleavage

In some animals, dividing cells of the embryo are offset from each other, a pattern known as

radial cleavage

In others, the dividing cells are aligned, a pattern termed

gastrulation

One wall of this ball of cells begins to indent and grow inward, a process called

blastopore

The opening into this indentation is the __________, and the indented cells themselves are destined to become the gut of the adult.

Ectoderm

schizocoelom

If a solid mass of mesodermal cells splits to form the body cavity within them, the result is a

Phylogenetics

• study of mapping relationships between organisms.

Phylogenetic trees

branches

parts of phylogeny that refers to the descendants

Monophyletic

• A single common ancestor and all of its descendants

Paraphyletic

• A common ancestor and some of its descendants

Polyphyletic

• a grouping with no recent common ancestor

Monophyletic

• Well-known ___________ taxa include Mammalia and Aves (modern birds), recognizable as all furry and feathered vertebrates, respectively.

Paraphyletic

___________ taxa include Pisces and Reptilia, the former comprising all ray-finned fish but excluding terrestrial descendants of fleshy-finned fish, and the latter comprising all scaly tetrapods but excluding mammals and birds with their modified scales.

Polyphyletic

____________________ taxa once in common usage include Agnatha for jawless lampreys and hagfish, and Insectivora for various toothless, insect-eating mammals such as anteaters and armadillos.

Chordates

• animals that have a notochord in the embryo stage at least.

Craniates

chordates with a neurocranium (braincase)

Vertebrates

Chordates with vertebrae

Notochord

a slender rod that develops from the mesoderm in all chordates.

vacuolated cells

The phylum takes the name Chordata from this structure. Typically, the notochord is composed of a core of cells and fluid encased in a tough sheath of fibrous tissue. Sometimes the fluid is held within swollen cells called ______________; other times it resides between core cells of the notochord.

Hydrostatic

• organ with elastic properties that resist axial compression.

nucleus pulposus.

In adult mammals with a full vertebral column, the notochord is reduced to a remnant, the

Head region

Fate during development of ________________ is incorporated into skull floor

Trunk and tail

pharyngeal slits

These may later nearly pierce, or in aquatic chordates actually pierce, the walls to form a longitudinal series of openings, the ____________ (also called pharyngotremy)

pharyngeal or branchial basket
