CHAPTER 34
VERTEBRATE EVOLUTION
AND DIVERSITY
Phylum Chordata
Some Invertebrates
Deuterostomes
1. Notochord (disks)
-longitudinal, flexible rod between
digestive tube and nerve cord
-large, fluid filled cells/ stiff fibrous tissue
-support
-most vertebrates – only remains as “disks”
2. Dorsal, Hollow Nerve Cord
-develops from ectoderm that rolls into a
tube/ dorsally from notochord
-develops into the Central nervous system:
the brain and spinal cord
3. Pharyngeal Slits
-region of digestive tract posterior to mouth
“ “pharynx”/ pouches
-filter food for invertebrate chordates
-modified for gas exchange (in aquatic
vertebrates), jaw support, hearing, and
other functions
4. Muscular, Postanal Tail
Subphylum Urochordata (Tunicates/ Sea Squirt)
Sessile or Planktonic
Tunic (cellulose-like carbohydrate)
Larva
Subphylum Cephalochordata (Lancelet)
“Idealized” chordates
Small (few cm long)
Live in the sand
Suspension feeders
Swim like fish
Gas exchange mainly across regions of the external body surface
Subphylum Vertebrata
Larger size
Active lifestyle
Neural crest (form skeletal elements/braincase)
Pronounced cephalization
Vertebral column
Closed circulatory system
Endoskeleton
Axial skeleton (cranium, vertebrae, ribs)
Appendicular skeleton (support appendages)
Living/ Grows
Ventral, chambered heart (blood, arteries, capillaries)
Gills or lungs
*Adaptations for feeding, digestion, and nutrient absorption
Contribute to formation
of certain skeletal elements
(cranium/ vertebral column)
Dorsal, hollow
Nerve cord
Jaws/ 2 sets of paired appendages
4 footed
shelled, water-retaining egg
Agnathans
Class Myxini: Hagfishes
Jawless vertebrates
eel-like in shape
Most primitive living "vertebrates"
Bottom-dwelling scavengers
Slime producing glands
predate the origin of
paired fins, teeth, and
bones hardened by
mineralization
(ossification)
Cartilage (connective tissue)
Serpentine swimming
Class Cephalaspidomorphi:
Lampreys
larvae for years in freshwater streams
 migrate to the sea/lakes streams (anadromous)
Cartilaginous pipe surrounding the rodlike notochord
Toothlike structures (keratin)
Gnathostomes
Jaws
Paired fins
Tail
Active predators
Jaws evolved by modification of the skeletal rods
that had previously supported the anterior
pharyngeal (gill) slits
remaining gill slits =
respiratory gas exchange

Class Chondrichthyes: Sharks and rays
Cartilaginous skeletons
Sharp Bony teeth
Streamlined bodies
Powerful swimming muscles
Buoyancy by storing a large amount of oil in its huge liver
Animal is still denser than water, and it sinks if it stops swimming
Use muscles of the jaws and pharynx to pump water over the gills
Suspension feeders and Carnivores
Short digestive tract (spiral valve)
Acute senses (predation)
Sight good (no color)
Smell (nostrils)
Lateral line system (detect water pressure changes
Detect electrical fields generated by muscle contractions of animals
Entire body transmits sound to hearing organs of inner ear (no eardrum)
Internal fertilization (cloaca/ male claspers near pelvic fin)
Oviparous; they lay eggs that hatch outside the mother’s body.
Ovoviviparous; they retain the fertilized eggs in the oviduct.
Viviparous; the young develop within the uterus, nourished by placenta
Class Osteichthyes: The bony fishes
Ray-finned fishes, lobe-finned fishes, and the lungfishes
Ray-finned fishes
Lungfishes
Most numerous vertebrates
Bass, trout, perch, tuna, herring, etc.
Lungs connected to the pharynx
Ossified endoskeleton (calcium phosphate)
Fins supported by long flexible rays
of the digestive tract
Flattened, bony scales
Gills (main organs for gas exchange)
Lobe-finned fishes
Mucous glands
Aestivate (state of torpor).
Coelacanth
Lateral line system
Muscular pectoral and pelvic fins
Four or five pairs of gills
supported by extensions of the bony skeleton
Operculum (muscle movement)
Swim bladder
Flexible fins
Most oviparous
Tetrapods
Tetrapod Evolution
