Chapter 34 Vertebrates 1. What are the characteristics of chordates? Muscle segments Brain Mouth Anus Dorsal, hollow nerve cord Notochord Muscular, post-anal tail Pharyngeal slits or clefts 4 features seen at some point during development - Notochord – longitudinal, flexible rod between nerve cord & digestive tube - Dorsal, hollow nerve cord - Muscular, post-anal tail - Pharyngeal gill slits

Chapter 34 Vertebrates 1. What are the characteristics of chordates?
Notochord – longitudinal, flexible rod between nerve cord & digestive tube Replaced by skeleton in most chordates Present in some invertebrate chordates & primitive vertebrates Dorsal, hollow nerve cord Derived from ectoderm Other animal phyla have a solid nerve cord Becomes brain & spinal cord Muscular, post-anal tail Pharyngeal gill slits Opening behind the mouth so water doesn’t enter digestive tract Modified for gas exchange in aquatic animals Modified for jaw support, hearing & other fcns in terrestrial animals Who are the invertebrate chordates? - Urochordates (tunicates – seas squirts)

Figure 34.4 A tunicate, a urochordate
(a) An adult tunicate, or sea squirt, is a sessile animal (photo is approximately life-sized). (b) In the adult, prominent pharyngeal slits function in suspension feeding, but other chordate characters are not obvious. (c) A tunicate larva is a free- swimming but nonfeeding “tadpole” in which all four chief characters of chordates are evident. Tunic Pharynx with numerous slits Atrium Excurrent siphon Incurrent siphon to mouth Stomach Esophagus Intestine Anus Excurrent siphon Pharynx with slits Notochord Tail Dorsal, hollow nerve cord Incurrent siphon Muscle segments - Most are sessile, marine organisms on rocks, docks, & boats - Squirt when disturbed

Chapter 34 Vertebrates 1. What are the characteristics of chordates?

What are the 2 groups of fish? Chondrichthyes – cartilaginous fish – sharks & rays Flexible endoskeleton Cartilage derived secondarily as ancestors had bony skeletons Lateral line system – detects electrical fields from muscles of nearby fish 3 different ways of birth within chondrichthyes Oviparous – egg laying Viviparous – live birth Ovoviviparous – eggs stay in oviduct where embryos develop into young that are hatched into the uterus Cloaca – common opening for reproductive & excretory tract Osteichthyes – bony fish

Figure 34.15 Chondrichthyans
(a) Blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus). Fast swimmers with acute senses, sharks have paired pectoral and pelvic fins. (b) Southern stingray (Dasyatis americana). Most rays are flattened bottom-dwellers that crush molluscs and crustaceans for food. Some rays cruise in open water and scoop food into their gaping mouth. (c) Spotted ratfish (Hydrolagus colliei). Ratfishes, or chimaeras, typically live at depths greater than 80 m and feed on shrimps, molluscs, and sea urchins. Some species have a poisonous spine at the front of their dorsal fin. Pectoral fins Pelvic fins

Chondrichthyes – cartilaginous fish – sharks & rays Osteichthyes – bony fish Mucus glands for reduced swimming friction Operculum – protective flap that covers gills Swim bladder – air sac that helps control buoyancy Most are oviparous with external fertilization 3 groups Ray-finned Lobe-finned Lungfish

Figure 34.24 The amniotic egg
(from the embryo) Shell Albumen Yolk (nutrients) Amniotic cavity with amniotic fluid Embryo Yolk sac. The yolk sac contains the yolk, a stockpile of nutrients. Blood vessels in the yolk sac membrane transport nutrients from the yolk into the embryo. Other nutrients are stored in the albumen (“egg white”). Allantois. The allantois is a disposal sac for certain metabolic wastes pro- duced by the embryo. The membrane of the allantois also functions with the chorion as a respiratory organ. Amnion. The amnion protects the embryo in a fluid-filled cavity that cushions against mechanical shock. Chorion. The chorion and the membrane of the allantois exchange gases between the embryo and the air. Oxygen and carbon dioxide diffuse freely across the shell. Extraembryonic membranes
