Overview Vertebrate Body: Lamprey Urogenital structure

-In the ancestral vertebrates, such as the lamprey, the kidneys were drained by urinary ducts that carried urine to a urogenital papilla opening into a cloaca . -A cloaca is a chamber at the end of the digestive tract that receives the intestine, urinary, and reproductive tracts and is found in all vertebrates except mammals and some bony fishes. -The opening of the cloaca to the outside, the vent, serves as a common exit for the urinary, digestive, and reproductive systems. -In the ancestral vertebrate, there were no tubes or ducts to carry sperm or eggs from the gonad to the cloaca. Instead the gametes were shed directly into the body cavity and eventually entered the urinary ducts through two genital pores located at the junction of the urinary ducts to the cloaca. -They are then discharged into the cloaca through the urogenital papilla and out the vent.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -ventral aorta in ancestral fish

-The ventral aorta leads from the heart anteriorly and gives rise to a series of paired aortic arches that form the afferent gill arteries carrying blood to each gill on each side. -After oxygenation, blood continues on from each gill and collects in the dorsal aorta. -Blood is then distributed to all parts of the body.

Dissection: -what does necturus not have?

-There are no gills in the gill slits of Necturus. -Gas exchange in amphibians takes place over the surface of the external gills (if present), in lungs, and over the entire body surface.

Dissection: -ventral aorta branches it divides in the Necturus?

-These branches will subdivide and give rise to three pairs of afferent gill arteries, which conduct blood to the capillaries of the gills.

Overview Vertebrate Body: Gas Exchange Systems: -secondary palate structure/function?

-This structure separates the nasal cavity from the oral cavity. -As a result, air goes through the nasopharynx, the space between the palates, before entering the mouth and then does so directly opposite the glottis. -Breathing therefore can occur even while food is being processed in the front of the mouth .

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -Amphibians faced a new problem?

-establishing a satisfactory circulation: accommodating air breathing. -keeping the oxygenated blood that was coming into the heart from the lungs separate from the blood coming in from the other parts of the body; -could then be sent in its turn to the lungs for oxygenation while the blood from the lungs went on to the rest of the body.

Overview Vertebrate Body: Gas Exchange Systems: -how amphibians facilitate breathe?

-evolved internal nostrils (nares); are openings in the palate (the roof of the mouth), which connect to the external nostrils, -so providing an independent passageway for the entry of air into the pharynx. *All higher vertebrates have these as well.

Dissection: -how do Necturus breathe?

-posterior vena cava, which conducts venous blood from the posterior part of the body. -Follow it anteriorly until enters the liver where it joins with the hepatic veins to convey the blood to the sinus venosus.

Dissection: -brachiocephalic arteries in a pigeon? -dorsal aorta?

-providing oxygenated blood to the neck and head regions. -The dorsal aorta branches almost immediately upon exiting the left ventricle,

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -This required second adaptation for Amphibians?

-the atrium was subdivided to form a right and left side -so that the deoxygenated blood entering the right side of the atrium via the sinus venosus - sinus venosus was kept separate from the oxygenated blood coming into the atrium from the pulmonary veins on the left.

Dissection: -female reproductive system in sharks?

-the ovaries lie on either side of the esophagus at the anterior end of the pleuroperitoneal cavity. -Each ovary is suspended from the dorsal body wall by a mesentery.

Dissection: -In a Necturus who has thew larger oviduct female or male?

-the oviduct is larger in the female and the anterior end of the oviduct has an enlarged funnel; this is lacking in the male's urinary duct. -However, the male does have a vestigial oviduct that is homologous to the female oviduct. *It may be seen as a dark line of pigmented cells along the lateral edge of the urinary duct.

Dissection:' -Reproductive structure in sharks for males

-the testes are located near the anterior end of the abdominal cavity adjacent to the anterior end of the kidneys. -Each testis is held in place by a mesentery through which minute ducts pass.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -turtle circulation with ventricles ?

-the ventricle is partially divided by a septum. -The pulmonary trunk as you would then expect exits from the right side of the ventricle so as to carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs.

Dissection: -the voice organ of a pigeon ?

-the voice organ of birds (the syrinx) is located at the posterior end of the trachea, where it divides to form the bronchi.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -Reptiles have hearts and circulatory systems similar too..

-those of adult amphibians, but they can differ in certain ways. >ex: The turtle has a complete separation of the left and right atria and no longer has a gill circulation.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -something different in the turtles heart

-turtle heart is that the left aorta actually attaches to the heart to the right of the ventral (and hence right) aorta. -This is a result of the particular evolutionary pathway taken to establish the reptilian heart

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Digestive System: -pharynx in aquatic chordates?

-where the pharyngeal slits are found. -In higher vertebrates, it is the region that the gut tube and the respiratory tract have in common. -ex: apply to lobe-finned bony fishes and most amphibians

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Digestive System: -small intestine?

-where the principal digestive and absorptive functions occur. -The first loop of the small intestine is called the duodenum. -The pancreas in virtually all vertebrates lies in a mesentery near the bend of the duodenum

Dissection: -do necturus have urinary bladder?

A shrunken urinary bladder is attached to the ventral surface of the cloaca. There are no ceca in Necturus.

Dissection: -where does oviduct of a female pigeon come from ?

A single coiled oviduct originates at a point slightly behind and lateral to the ovary and extends to the posterior part of the cloaca.

Necturus and frog class

Amphibia

Dissection: -what other animal has same veins?

As in fishes, there are also cardinal veins that return venous blood to the sinus venosus.

Dissection: -where is blood returned in a shark

Blood is returned to the sinus venosus by the anterior and posterior cardinal veins. The posterior cardinal veins can be seen on either side of the dorsal aorta in the abdominal cavity

Shark (dogfish) class

Chondricthyes -Most members of this group have internal fertilization; males have evolved "claspers" for introducing sperm into the female's body. For these and other reasons, it is most inappropriate to regard sharks and other cartilaginous fish as more primitive than the bony fish

Dissection: -where does the deoxygenated blood come from in a turtle ?

Deoxygenated blood from the limbs is returned to the right atrium via the posterior vena cava.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -Ancient Fish conus arteriosus (CA)?

The conus arteriosus is a narrow chamber that connects the ventricle with the ventral aorta. -It contains a series of semilunar valves that prevent backflow into the ventricle.

Dissection: -efferent portion of a shark

The freshly oxygenated blood then passes from the gill capillaries into the efferent (away from) portions of the gill arteries that join to form the dorsal aorta and so into the general body circulation.

Dissection: -pigeons gas exchange system?

The gas exchange system of birds consists not only of the lungs, but also a number of air sacs located among the viscera and in spaces within certain bones.

Overview Vertebrate Body: Gas Exchange Systems: One difficulty the first terrestrial vertebrates how the internal nostril function?

The internal nostrils generally opened near the front of the mouth whereas the glottis was in the back (as you will see in the Necturus), and while breathing, air had to traverse the length of the mouth.

Dissection: -lips of the male and female in necturus cloaca

The large vent (the opening into the cloaca) is located at the junction of the trunk and tail. lips surrounding the vent; in the male the lips are very swollen and have tiny papillae inside, in the female the lips are small, smooth folds

Dissection: -Turtle's peritoneum?

The large vessels forming an H-shaped design in the ventral peritoneum are veins carrying blood from the posterior part of the body. They join the hepatic portal vein to enter the liver

Dissection: -pulmonary arteries in a pigeon?

The left and right pulmonary arteries are branches of the pulmonary trunk, which, like the aorta, leaves the ventricles and splits while still surrounded by heart tissue

Dissection: -what body part in necturus is inefficient ?

The limbs are mechanically inefficient for support and movement, but are sufficient for crawling up on the banks of streams

Dissection: -turtles lungs?

The lungs are broad, flat, spongy organs lying against the carapace on each side just posterior to the pectoral girdle. They extend quite far posteriorly.

Dissection: -where is oxygenated blood is pumped?

The oxygenated blood is pumped to the left ventricle from the left atrium and so on to the aorta, thus completing the cycle of blood transport through the pigeon heart.

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Digestive System: -pancreas structure un shark

The pancreas can be a discrete, obvious structure or structures as in the shark

Dissection: -do sharks also have vena cava?

The posterior vena cava is a new invention; in the shark venous blood returns to the heart through the cardinal veins and there is no vena cava.

Dissection: -how to tell if a shark is male?

The sex of a shark is shown by its pelvic fin. That of the male is pointed backward and modified into a clasper with rolled edges for sperm transfer

Dissection: -sinus venosus of a turtle ?

The sinus venosus, which contains the "pacemaker", receives blood from various veins on the dorsal side and delivers it to the right atrium.

Dissection: -the small intestines of the turtle

The small intestine continues into the large intestine. Note the cecum, a round nub at the junction of the large and small intestines.

Dissection: -ventral aorta in sharks?

The ventral aorta gives rise to three pairs of branches that in turn branch to produce the five aortic arches that form the afferent (towards) gill arteries on each side.

Dissection: -the silts of Necturus compared to fish?

These are the third and fourth gill slits; the first and second do not break through the skin in Necturus as they do in fishes. Behind the tongue on the floor of the pharynx is a small raised area where a tiny slit, the glottis (the opening to the larynx and trachea) is located.

Overview Vertebrate Body: Gas Exchange Systems: -Lungs were retained ?

lobe-finned bony fishes and in tetrapods but evolved into swim bladders in ray-finned bony fishes

Overview Vertebrate Body: The Circulatory System: -The ancestors of birds resembles heart?

of a reptiles. As you might guess, the aorta that was lost was therefore the left.

Dissection: overview blood flow in the necturus heart?

sinus venosus → right atrium → ventricle → conus arteriosus → ventral aorta (bulbus arteriosus) → afferent gill arteries → capillaries of the gills → efferent gill arteries (branch forming pulmonary artery) → right or left aorta → dorsal aorta → various parts of the systemic circulation.

Dissection: -digrestive system in a shark> pylorus

stomach terminates at the pylorus, a sphincter muscle that regulates the flow of food from the stomach to the intestine.

Dissection: -which artery carries oxygenated blood in the Necturus

the left and right aortae are formed from arteries draining the gills and therefore carry oxygenated blood.

Dissection: -what oral structure does the turtle lack in

turtle lacks teeth, which are functionally replaced by a keratin reinforced beak, as in birds.
