why do sharks have buoyancy?
because of low-density oils in the large liver

acute sense of smell and sound and sense electrical fields
spiral valve
corkscrew-shaped ridge that increase surface area and prolongs the passage of food along the short digestive tract

what animals are actinopterygii
ray-finned fishes
Swim Bladder
an air-filled sac near the spinal column in many fishes that helps maintain buoyancy
gestation
development period where offspring emerges from the mothers body
why are they bilaterian?
because their larvae are bilaterally symmetric
Adult echinoderms are..
radially symmetric
tube feet
part of the water vascular system that is elongated fluid-filled structures
What kind of feet do echinoderms have?
podia and tube feet
podia
sections of the tube feet that project outside the body and are involved in motion along a substrate
What is the endoskeleton composed of?
calcium carbonate
synapomorphy of echinoderms
water vascular system and endoskeleton
What does starfish podia help them with?
opening shells by pulling them apart
how do they obtain food?
the podia can flick food into cillia and then the mouth, they can open shells
Lineages of Echinodermata

Chordata
what are the three major lineages of chordata
cephalochordates, urochordates and vertebrates
cephalochordates
small mobile suspension feeders that resemble fish
urochordates
A chordate without a backbone, commonly called a tunicate, a sessile marine animal.
to which group do sea squirts and salps belong to?
urochordata
what is the difference between sea squirts and salps?
sea squirts live on the ocean floor and salps live in the open ocean
vertebrates
dorsal hollow nerve cord elaborated into spinal cord
Are Urochordates sessile or motile?
they are sessile when adults
Cephalochordata
a chordate clade whose members possess a notochord, dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, and a post-anal tail in the adult stage
what are the synapomorphies of vertebrates?
have vertebrae and cranium
what are the three regions of the brain
forebrain, midbrain and hindbrain
forebrain
houses the sense of smell
midbrain
associated with vision
hindbrain
responsible for balance and hearing
what are the most species rich and ecologically diverse vertebrate lineages?
ray-finned fishes and tetrapods
what is the air bladder?
what developed first in vertebrates?
bony exoskeleton
what was the function of bony endoskeleton?
to support movement and rapid swimming
what is the function of the air bladder?
keel
a projection off the bird sternum that provides surface area for muscle attachment of the wings
amnion
protective inner membrane where the embryo develops
yolk sac
contains nutrients for the embryo
allantois
waste storage
chorion
allows gas exchange
albumen
a membrane-bound supply of water in a protein-rich solution
true or false: birds are endothermic and exothermic
false they are only endothermic
amniotic egg
A shelled, water-retaining egg that enables reptiles, birds, and egg-laying mammals to complete their life cycles on dry land
oviparous
egg laying animals
viviparous
species that give birth
ovoviviparous
female produces an egg with a nutrient-rich yolk and retains it within her body
parental care
any action by a parent that improves the ability of its offspring to survive
what are the only vertebrates that lack jaws
hagfish and lampreys
what are the 3 lineages of mammals?

monophyletic
diapsids
two holes on each side of skull
synapsids
one hole on each side of skull
which are diapsid and synapsid
reptiles diapsid, mammals are synapsids
4 major lineages of reptiles
lizards/snakes, turtles, crocodiles/alligators, birds
ectothermic
do not use internally generated heat to regulate body temp (cold-blooded)
are birds under reptilia?
yes

albatross,
how are tortoises and turtles differentiated
bony plate
birds descended from?
feathered dinosaurs
birds are the only
endotherms within the reptilia
