1 REPTILES Ch. 31 Pg. 757-765

2 CHARACTERISTICS  First to live completely on land

3 CHARACTERISTICS  First to live completely on land  Eggs covered in shell (don’t dry out)

4 CHARACTERISTICS  First to live completely on land  Eggs covered in shell (don’t dry out)  Skin covered in scales (don’t dry out)

5 CHARACTERISTICS  First to live completely on land  Eggs covered in shell (don’t dry out)  Skin covered in scales (don’t dry out)  Dominated land (especially JURASSIC PERIOD)

6 CHARACTERISTICS  First to live completely on land  Eggs covered in shell (don’t dry out)  Skin covered in scales (don’t dry out)  Dominated land (especially JURASIC PERIOD)  Live in deserts, tropical areas, oceans, rivers, lakes—but NOT in very cold regions

7 CHARACTERISTICS  Ectothermic, scales, clawed toes, lack feathers

8 CHARACTERISTICS  Ectothermic, scales, clawed toes, lack feathers  Well developed lungs, heart with PARTIALLY divided ventricle

9 CHARACTERISTICS  Ectothermic, scales, clawed toes, lack feathers  Well developed lungs, heart with PARTIALLY divided ventricle  Internal fertilization/amniotic eggs

10 MOVEMENT/RESPONSE  Legs positioned under body but not DIRECTLY under (slower than mammals)

11 MOVEMENT/RESPONSE  Legs positioned under body but not DIRECTLY under (slower than mammals)  Developed vision Moveable eyelids Some see at night (geckos)

12 MOVEMENT/RESPONSE  Legs positioned under body but not DIRECTLY under (slower than mammals)  Developed vision Moveable eyelids Some see at night (geckos)  TYMPANUM (external ear) NOT snakes-use tongue-smell and vibrations (JACOBSON’S ORGAN)

20 RESPIRATION AND CIRCULATION  LUNGS Many internal folds (increase surface area)

21 RESPIRATION AND CIRCULATION  LUNGS Many internal folds (increase surface area) Muscles in rib cage move air

22 RESPIRATION AND CIRCULATION  LUNGS Many internal folds (increase surface area) Muscles in rib cage move air  HEART Septum partly divides ventricle-less mixing of oxygen rich with oxygen poor blood

60 LIZARDS AND SNAKES  Both evolved from ancestors WITH legs  Periodic molting  Jaw loosely attached to skull (allows it to open wide)  LIZARDS Iguanans, geckos, anoles, horned lizards (NOT horny toads) Most herbivores (SOME carnivores)

61 LIZARDS AND SNAKES  Some species lose tail easily

62 LIZARDS AND SNAKES  Some species lose tail easily  External ears and eyelids

63 SNAKES  Swallow prey whole

64 SNAKES  Swallow prey whole  Jaw flexible-5 points of movement

65 SNAKES  Swallow prey whole  Jaw flexible-5 points of movement  Some are constrictors (boas, pythons, king snakes)-wrap body around prey/suffocate

66 SNAKES  Swallow prey whole  Jaw flexible-5 points of movement  Some are constrictors (boas, pythons, king snakes)-wrap body around prey/suffocate  Some are poisonous (cobras, vipers, copperheads)-venom injected through hollow fangs

67 SNAKES  Swallow prey whole  Jaw flexible-5 points of movement  Some are constrictors (boas, pythons, king snakes)-wrap body around prey/suffocate  Some are poisonous (cobras, vipers, copperheads)-venom injected through hollow fangs  Most lay eggs (oviparous) others give live birth (ovoviviparous-ex. Garter Snake)
