1 Chordates An Introduction

2 Kingdom Animalia- All inverts & verts 1.Phylum Chordata: All have nerve cords. 3 subphyla : A- Urochordata (tunicates aka sea squirts). Only larvae have notochord B-Cephalochordata (lancelets aka Amphioxus). Retain notochord throughout adulthood, but “muscle- like” for burrowing C-Vertebrata- Notochord becomes backbone. 7 Classes

3 Section 33-1 have the following key features which is Concept Map Chordates A flexible supporting structure Notochord Dorsal hollow nerve cord Pharyngeal gill slits/ pouches Postanal tail

11 11 Evolutionary Adaptations of Chordates From filter feeding ancestors to active predators –Mobility –Oxygen capture –Digestion –Circulation –Nervous system

12 12 Skeletal Changes Skeleton becomes stronger to work with bigger muscles Allows more rapid movement

13 13 Oxygen Capture Gill slit and muscular pharynx will move more water over gills –More oxygen is extracted from water

14 14 Circulation Stronger heart to circulate blood faster

15 15 Digestion Digest more food –Muscularized gut –Digestive glands Liver Pancreas

16 16 Nervous System More complex for better –Motor control of body to capture food –Sensory detection of the animals environment –Integration centers (brain)

17 17 Brain With Three Parts Forebrain Midbrain Hindbrain

30 Subphylum Vertebrata: All Vertebrates have: Endoskeleton- backbone Closed circulatory system Bilateral symmetry True coelom Sexual reproduction- internal or external Vertebrate Groups- Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Birds, and Mammals

31 Homeostasis Endothermic (warm-blooded)- internal temp. regulation that must be maintained Ex. Birds & Mammals Ectothermic (cold-blooded)- external temp. regulation/ regulated by environment Ex. Nonvertebrate chordates, Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles

34 Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Subphylum Vertebrata Class Agnatha “Jawless” Fish (most primitive) : Traits: -Sucker like mouth(no jaws) -No fins or paired appendages -Cartilage skeleton w/ notochord Ex: lamprey & hagfish

35 Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Subphylum Vertebrata Class Chondrichthyes-Cartilage Fish Traits: Cartilage skeleton; 2 chambered heart Lateral line system –detect vibrations (movement & sense) Paired appendages- pectoral and pelvic girdles Poor eyesight, great olfactory Carnivorous or scavenger, no swim bladder Ex: sharks, skates, rays

41 Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Class Osteichthyes- Bony Fish Traits: Bony skeleton; 2 chambered heart Lateral line system/movement & sense Swim bladder-control depth (buoyancy) Have operculum over gills Good smell (olfactory) and eyesight Ex: perch, bass, flounder
