Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Subphylum Vertebrata Class Mammalia
SZ2- Students will explain the evolutionary history of animals over the geological history of Earth. Mammals evolved from early synapsid reptiles
3
Primitive Chordate
4
Fish Two Chambered Heart
5
Amphibian Heart- 3 Chambers Fig
6
Reptilian Heart – 3 chambers Crocodile- incomplete 4

8
Synapsids Animals with one skull opening behind eye socket
Located in the temporal region
9
Pelycosaurs Synapsid reptiles from Pennsylvanian and Permian
MYA Body close to ground Legs away from body Canine like teeth Dimetron
10
Therapsids Before dinosaurs
Evidence suggests Mammals evolved from therapsids Body raised off the ground Limbs more under the body Teeth differentiated into 3 types Lystrosaurus
11
Cynodonts “dog tooth” Lumbar ribs reduced or absent
Well developed secondary palate Lower jaw reduced to one bone Thrinaxodon Cynognathus
12
Transitional Fossil Thrinaxodon
mya Body divided into lumbar and thoracic regions
13
Transitional Fossil Cynognathus
mya May have been endothermic and gave birth to live young Smaller than a wolf
14
Cladogram of Synapsids
Cynodonts Mammals Therapsids Molars, hair, glands Pelycosaurs Reduced ribs, 1 jaw bone Limbs under body, different types of teeth Canine like teeth Synapsid reptiles
15
Early Mammals Triassic 225 MYA Small Megazostrodon
16
Repenomamus robustus Ate Dinosaurs
17
Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Class Mammalia Have fur/hair
mammary glands Viviparous- Give birth to live young (except monotremes) Length of time in uterus - gestation period Extended parental care 4 chambered heart endothermic
18
Mammalian Anatomical Adaptations
Muscular Diaphragm Specialized teeth Seven cervical(neck)vertebrae Outer ear Well developed brain- Largest cerebrum Sweat glands 7. Diphyodont teeth Two sets 8. Heterodont teeth Different shapes and functions

35
Mammal Classification
14 major orders Over 4,000 species About half are rodents
37
Monotremes “cloaca” Lay eggs Incubate 12 days
Lick milk from mothers fur Transitional species Ex. Echidna, duck-billed platypus
38
Marsupials Pouched mammals Birth to tiny embryo
Embryo attaches to mother’s nipple to complete development
39
Marsupials and Monotremes in Australia
Triassic Period Mammals evolved Pangea Jurassic Period Monotremes and marsupials migrated to southern pangea Cretaceous Period Pangea breaks up
40
Placental Mammals Placenta nourishes embryo Long gestation period
22 months for elephant Most successful group of mammals
41
Placental Mammals Competitive advantage over monotremes and marsupials
Better nutrition from placenta Less vulnerable to predators More advanced at birth
42
Evolution of Placenta from Amniotic Egg
Reptile Chorion Oxygen from air Amnion Provides private pond Yolk Sac Food for embryo Allantois Store urinary waste Mammal Chorion Form placenta to get oxygen & food from mothers blood Amnion Provides private pond Yolk sac Temporarily make RBCs Allantois Form umbilical cord
44
Placental: Order Insectivora
Sharp-snout Small Burrow underground Eat insects
45
Order Chiroptera Only Flying mammals Elongated fingers Echolocation
Ex. bats Importance- Seed dispersal Pollination Control insects
46
Echolocation
47
Smallest Mammal Kitti’s hog-nosed Bat Bumble bee size 1.5 grams
48
Order Xenarthra Toothless or peg like teeth
49
Order Carnivora Large canine teeth Teeth adapted to shear flesh
50
Order Rodentia Chisel-like incisor teeth Continuously grow
Largest order
51
Order Cetacea “large sea animal”
Front limbs modified into flippers No hind limbs Marine
52
Whales Blue whale 100 feet long, 120 tons Loudest animal– 188 dB
9 story building Loudest animal– 188 dB Sound travels 100’s of miles
54
Blue Whale Baleen whale Eats krill Heart weighs 1000 pounds
Tiny crustaceans 400 pounds/day Heart weighs 1000 pounds Size of a Volkswagen Endangered species
55
Grey Whale
56
Migrates 12,500 miles
57
Grey Whale 50 feet long 35 tons Baleen whale Endangered species
Sift mud Endangered species
58
Killer Whale
59
Breaching
60
Killer Whale 12,000 pounds Eat fish, squid, seals and whales
200 pounds/day Swim 30 mph
61
Humpback Whale
62
Order Pinnipedia “fin feet” Limbs modified for swimming
Marine carnivores Seals, sea lions, walrus
63
Order Proboscidea Tusks Largest living land mammal
64
Order Artiodactyla “even toe” Two or four toes
Giraffes, impalas, moose, bison, cows
65
Order Perissodactyla “odd toed” One or three toes Horses rhinos
66
Order Primata Opposable thumb Binocular vision Fingernails usually
Mammary glands reduced to one thoracic pair Most intelligent group of animals
67
The End
68
Evolution Change over time
Which Chordate class do you think has more advantages/adaptations to survive changing times? Which classes have disadvantages? Which Chordate classes can you see evolutionary similarities in so far?
