1 Chordata- vertebrates Animal phylogeny based on sequencing of SSU-rRNA Phylum Chordata Distinguishing Features 1. Pharyngeal gill slits 2. Dorsal hollow nerve cord 3. Notochord 4. Muscular postanal tail 3 Chordate Subphyla: Urochordata - tunicates (invert.) Cephalochordata - lancelets (invert.) Vertebrata - fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals Chordate Characteristics 1

2 Subphylum Vertebrata: in search of a diagnostic feature 3 chordate characteristics Segmentation Cephalization Vertebrae Cranium Endoskeleton *NEURAL CREST MATERIAL* Seven Extant Classes of Vertebrates Agnatha - jawless fishes Chondrichthyes - cartilagenous fishes Osteichthyes - bony fishes Amphibia - amphibians Reptilia - reptiles Aves - birds Mammalia - mammals Fish Classification of Fish Cl. Agnatha and Cl. Placoderma Agnathans - Ancestral vertebrates: mya extinct by 370 mya Modern representatives: cartilage skeleton, smooth skin, retain notochord Lampreys and Hagfish Cl. Placoderma: ( mya) Two important innovations: jaws and fins Hagfish Notochord; slime!; cartilaginous skeleton; poor eyes; slime (I know, but its worth mentioning twice ) 2

Gas exchange 2. Nutrition 3. Distribution and transport 4. Disposal of cellular wastes 5. Internal water and salt balance 6. Reproduction and development 7. Support and movement 3
