1
Vertebrates Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Birds, Mammals
2
Vertebrates Backbone or vertebral column 1. Protects spine 2. gives support Endoskeleton 1. Support 2. Shape 3. grows
3
Phylum Chordata Nerve cord – hollow tube near back Notochord 1. Beneath nerve cord Throat with gill slits
4
Groups of Chordates Eight Groups Six are ectotherms 1. Rely on environment for heat 2. “cold blooded” Two are endotherms 1. Maintain their body heat 2. “warm blooded”
5
What to do next Color code the embryos Do section review on page 62
6
FISH Evolved 540 mya Water dwelling vertebrates 1. Scales 2. Fins 3. Throat with gill slits
7
Jawless Fish Most primitive 1. No scales 2. No fins 3. No jaw 4. No bones 5. Examples- hagfish and lamprey
8
Cartilaginous Fish Skeleton made of cartilage Tooth-like scales No swim bladder Sharks, skates, and rays
9
Bony Fish Have a swim bladder 1. Gives the ability to float or sink Color vision Lateral line that senses movement
10
Fish Diagram
11
What to do next? Color fish diagram Do crossword Do section review on page 67 for homework
12
AMPHIBIANS Ectotherms Term amphibian means “double life” Live on land and water – soft eggs Goes through metamorphosis
13
Caecilians Legless amphibian Lives in damp soil in the tropics Eats small invertebrates Thin moist skin Small eyes under skin but are blind
14
Salamander 390 known species Eats small vertebrates Long tail and four small legs
15
Frog 90% of all amphibians are frogs and toads Found all over the world Highly adapted for life on land Sticky tongues that are attached to the front of the mouth instead of the back Strong legs for jumping Ears Vocal cords
16
Frog Life Cycle
17
What to do next Fill out the Venn diagram that compares/contrasts a toad and a frog Color pictures
18
REPTILES Thick, dry skin Ectotherms Lungs to breathe Evolved 35 mya Strong vertical legs Most lay thick rubbery eggs. This allows them to reproduce on land
19
Reptile eggs Shell - protects the egg Albumen – provides water and protein Amniotic sac - protects embryo Yolk - provides food Allantois – stores waste and passes oxygen
20
Labeling the egg
21
Lizards About 4,000 species Live in deserts, jungle, forests and grasslands Most eat small invertebrates and plants but some are strictly herbivores
23
Turtles and Tortoises 250 species Slow and inflexible Protective shell Live on land and water Are distant relatives of most other reptiles
25
Snakes About 1600 species No legs Scales on belly pull snake forward Carnivores Good sense of smell
26
Alligators and Crocodiles Eyes and nose on top of headso they can hide under water Carnivores Spend most of their time in water 22 different species
27
Alligators and Crocodiles
28
What’s Next? Do amphibians and reptiles crossword puzzle Do section reviews on page 77,questions 1-3 Do chapter review on page 82, questions 6-12. Use complete sentences.
29
Birds Endotherms (warm-blooded) Egg-laying vertebrates 4 types -perching birds – sparrows, robins etc. -bird of prey- owls, hawks etc. -waterfowl – ducks, geese etc. -flightless- penguins, ostrich etc.
30
Feathers Adapted for flight Contour feathers – large, broad Down – small, used for insulation Not all birds fly
31
Adaptations Beak – cracking, drilling Feet – wading, scratching
32
Which food goes with which bird?
33
A few feet good for perching good for swimming good for capturing prey
34
Respiration Air sacs - give constant oxygen (fuel) - give enough energy for flight lungs
35
Circulation Double-loop circulatory system keeps oxygenated blood separate from de- oxygenated blood
36
Complex Behaviors Song - protects territory - mating - calling Migrate
37
Bones Birds have “hollow” bone that makes them lightweight Have trusses inside bone for strength
39

What to do next Label the parts of the feather Read pages 90 and 91 – flight adaptations Take notes on flight adaptations and put them in your fieldguide Do section review on page 94 questions 1-5 Do crossword puzzle
