14. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata c. Jawed Fishes - Placoderms(extinct – survived to Permian) - Cartilaginous fish (Class: Chondrichthyes) also efficient paired fins - sharks - skates, rays - ratfish - must swim or sink; spend lots of energy

15. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata c. Jawed Fishes - Placoderms(extinct – survived to Permian) - Cartilaginous fish (Class: Chondrichthyes) - Bony Fish (Class: Osteichthyes)

18. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata c. Jawed Fishes - Placoderms(extinct – survived to Permian) - Cartilaginous fish (Class: Chondrichthyes) - Bony Fish (Class: Osteichthyes) - light bone skeleton - air sac for respiration - in Ray-finned: swim bladder (light, buoyant, fast) save energy by floating

19. - Bony Fish (Class: Osteichthyes) - light bone skeleton - air sac for respiration - in Ray-finned: swim bladder (light, buoyant, fast) - in Lobe-finned and lungfish: evolved jointed fins… could support weight on land, and breath with air sac. (Devonian – 400my)

20. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata d. Amphibians

21. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata d. Amphibians - Evolved in Devonian (375 mya) - Lungfish - fed on abundant terrestrial Arthropods

22. An extraordinary sequence of intermediates documenting the colonization of land. The "red gap" was filled in 2006. 385 mya 365 mya

24. Eusthenopteron

25. Panderichthys rhombolepis

26. Tiktaalik roseae

27. Acanthostega gunnari

28. Ichthyostega sp. (remember ?)

29. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata d. Amphibians - Caecilians, Frogs and Toads, Salamanders

30. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata d. Amphibians - Caecilians, Frogs and Toads, Salamanders - small lungs, respiratory skin must stay moist

31. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata d. Amphibians - Caecilians, Frogs and Toads, Salamanders - small lungs, respiratory skin must stay moist - eggs must stay moist

32. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata e. Reptiles – evolved in Carboniferous (325 mya)

33. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata e. Reptiles - amniotic egg with shell; protects embryo from desiccation (like a seed...) embryo

34. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata e. Reptiles - amniotic egg with shell - kidney to produce concentrated urine...(reduces water loss. reptiles and birds excrete their nitrogenous waste as a paste (the white stuff in a bird's droppings) that requires little water.)

35. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata e. Reptiles - amniotic egg with shell - kidney to produce concentrated urine - scales to reduce water loss from skin (correlating with a larger lung compared to amphibians)

37. From 250 to 200 mya, the formation of the supercontinent of Pangaea created warm dry climates that gave ‘reptiles’ the edge. Remember? This gave gymnosperms the edge, too...

48. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata g. Birds: - Reptilian Roots feathered dinosaurs and endothermy - flight

49. II. Animal Diversity 3. Vertebrata g. Birds: - one way lung

50. even on an exhalation, new air is pulled through the lungs... so birds even absorb oxygen on an exhalation. One way transport is more efficient (like a gut)...
