4
Characteristics of Reptiles Reptiles are fully adapted to life on land. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Characteristics that allow reptiles to succeed on land include a shelled egg, scaly skin, and more efficient circulatory and respiratory systems. Section 1
5
The leathery shell protects the internal fluids and embryo. Amniotic Eggs The amnion is a membrane that surrounds a developing embryo. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds An amniotic egg is covered with a protective shell and has several internal membranes. Section 1

Reptiles and Birds Section 1
7
Dry, Scaly Skin Dry skin keeps reptiles from losing internal fluids to the air. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds A layer of external scales keeps reptiles from drying out. Some reptiles, like snakes, must shed their skins to grow. Section 1
8
Respiration Reptiles depend on lungs for gas exchange. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds A reptile’s lungs have a large surface area. With more oxygen, more energy can be released through metabolic reactions and made available for more complex movements. Section 1
9
Circulation Oxygen from the lungs enters into the circulatory system. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Most reptiles have two separate atria and one ventricle. Section 1
10
Feeding and Digestion Most reptiles are carnivores, but some are herbivores. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds To make it easier to swallow prey whole, snakes have loosely jointed jaws that can spread apart to take in their food. Section 1
11
Excretion Kidneys filter the blood to remove waste products. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Water reabsorption enables reptiles to conserve water and maintain homeostasis in their bodies. Section 1
12
The Brain and Senses Vision is the main sense in most reptiles. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Some reptiles have tympanic membranes and others detect vibrations through their jaw bones. In snakes, Jacobson’s organs in the mouth are used to sense odors. Section 1
13
Temperature Control Reptiles are ectotherms and regulate their body temperatures by basking in the sun for warmth or burrowing in the ground to cool off. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Section 1
14
Movement Some reptiles move with limbs sprawled to their sides and push against the ground. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Crocodiles have limbs rotated further under the body and can bear more weight and move faster. Section 1
15
Reproduction Reptiles have internal fertilization. Reptiles Reptiles and Birds After fertilization, the egg develops to form the new embryo and an amniotic egg. Most reptile eggs are buried and the sun incubates them. After laying their eggs, most females leave them alone to hatch. Section 1
16
Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Section 1
17
Lizards and Snakes Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Lizards have legs with clawed toes. Lizards usually have moveable eyelids, a lower jaw with a moveable hinge joint, and tympanic membranes. Section 1
18
Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Snakes lack moveable eyelids and tympanic membranes. Like lizards, snakes have loosely-jointed jaws, and some snakes have venomous fangs. Snakes are legless and have shorter tails than lizards. Section 1
19
Turtles Reptiles Reptiles and Birds A protective shell encases a turtle’s body. The dorsal part of the shell is the carapace. The ventral part of the shell is the plastron. Many turtles can pull their head and legs inside their shells for protection from predators. Section 1
20
Crocodiles and Alligators Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Crocodilians have a four-chambered heart which delivers oxygen more efficiently. Crocodiles have a long snout, sharp teeth, and powerful jaws. Alligators generally have a broader snout than crocodiles. Section 1
21
Tuataras Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Tuataras look like large lizards and are found on the islands off the coast of New Zealand. Tuataras have a “third eye” located on the top of their heads that can detect sunlight. Tuataras have two rows of teeth on the upper jaw. Section 1
22
Evolution of Reptiles Reptiles Reptiles and Birds Dino Dig Section 1
23
Endotherms Birds are endotherms, which means they generate body heat internally by their own metabolism. Birds Reptiles and Birds A high body temperature enables the cells in a bird’s flight muscles to use large amounts of ATP needed for rapid muscle contraction during flight. Characteristics of Birds Birds have feathers, wings, lightweight bones, and other adaptations that allow for flight. Section 2
24
Feathers Birds are the only living animals to have feathers. Birds Reptiles and Birds Feathers have two main functions: Flight Insulation Section 2
25
Birds Reptiles and Birds Section 2
26
Feathers that cover the body, wings, and tail of a bird are called contour feathers. Contour feathers consist of a shaft with barbs that and are held together by hooks. Birds Reptiles and Birds Down feathers are soft feathers located beneath the contour feathers. The preen gland secretes oil that adds a waterproof coating to the feathers. Section 2
27
Lightweight Bones A strong, lightweight skeleton allows birds to fly. Birds Reptiles and Birds The bones of birds are unique because they contain cavities of air. Large, powerful muscles attach to the sternum and keel. Section 2
28
Reptiles and Birds Section 2
29
Respiration Flight muscles use a large amount of oxygen. Birds Reptiles and Birds When a bird inhales, oxygenated air moves through the trachea into posterior air sacs. When a bird exhales, deoxygenated air leaves the respiratory system and oxygenated air is sent to the lungs. Section 2
30
Circulation Birds Reptiles and Birds Birds have a four-chambered heart. A bird’s circulatory system helps it maintain high levels of energy by efficient delivery of oxygenated blood to the body. Section 2
31
Feeding and Digestion Birds require large amounts of food to maintain their high metabolic rate. Birds Reptiles and Birds Many birds have a crop at the base of the esophagus that stores food. The gizzard contains small stones that crush food the birds have swallowed. Section 2
32
Reptiles and Birds Section 2
33
The Brain and Senses The cerebellum is large because birds need to coordinate movement and balance during flight. Birds Reptiles and Birds The cerebrum controls eating, singing, flying, and instinctive behavior. Section 2
34
Birds Reptiles and Birds Birds of prey have eyes in the front of the head, which allows them to focus easily. Some birds have eyes on the sides, enabling them to see nearly 360 degrees. Birds also have a good sense of hearing. Birds have excellent vision. Section 2
35
Reproduction Birds Reptiles and Birds All birds have internal fertilization. Birds incubate the egg or eggs and feed the young after hatching. After fertilization, the amniotic egg develops and is encased within a hard shell. Section 2

Birds Reptiles and Birds Evolution of Birds Fossil evidence shows that birds evolved from the same line as crocodiles and dinosaurs. Archaeopteryx was an ancient bird with a reptile-like tail, clawed fingers on the wings, teeth, and a body covered with feathers. Section 2
