What is a Chordate?
All chordates have these basic features:
Hollow Nerve Cord – Nerve cord in which
nerves branch out at regular intervals
 Notochord – Long supporting rod that
runs length of body
 Pharyngeal Pouches or Gill Slits –
Paired structures in throat
 Segmented Muscles - muscles
specialized for movement
 Post Anal Tail – Extends beyond anus

What makes a chordate a chordate?
Why are tunicates included in the same phylum as humans?
What is a tetrapod?
What are some major groups of vertebrate animals?
Most vertebrates have jaws. Why are jaws important?
What natural disaster wiped out half of the Earth’s animals 65 million
years ago?
What are the advantages of having an internal skeleton as
compared to an external skeleton that is shed in order to grow?
What is the function of the notochord?
Why can’t an ant get as big as an elephant?
What happened during evolution that led to the appearance of jaws
and skulls in chordates?
How can you investigate growth in an extinct animal? How can you
investigate rate of growth in an extinct animal?
My Rationale for Dissection
Former students recall with awe the impact
lab experiences of dissections of real
animals had on them.
 I hope to instill the same feeling of awe and
respect for the beauty and organization in
body systems.


Pre-lab Assignment
Read through the manual for your
specimen.
 Draw a rough sketch of how you plan to
make cuts.
 Make a list of what you will be looking for
when you dissect.

Safety
MUST WEAR GOGGLES!!!!!!
 MUST WEAR GLOVES!!!!!
 Scalpel Blades are super sharp.

Why Dissect?
To understand complexity and
organization of body systems.
 To learn about the orientation of body
parts.
 To study comparative anatomy.
 To see first hand and experience.

Warm-up 05/08

Name 2 things that you would expect a Crayfish and a
Frog to have in common.






Both Bilateral
Circulatory system with a heart
One way digestive tract with intestines
Membrane lined cavities or both coelomates
Male or female reproductive organs only
Name 2 things that they don’t have in common.



Endoskeleton (frog) vs Exoskeleton (Crayfish)
Respiratory systems different (water vs land)
Brain size
Agenda 05/08
Greeters/Presentations
 Dissection

Compare and Contrast Invertebrates to
Vertebrates
 Dissection Lab Sheets due Monday 05/12


All Standard 2 Assignments Deadline 05/09
Compare and Contrast
After completing dissecting your
specimen, observe all other specimens.
 Note all the things your specimen has in
common and all of the things you notice
that they don’t share with other
specimens.
 You may have to look at the manuals to
find more specific information.

Safety
MUST WEAR GOGGLES!!!!!!
 MUST WEAR GLOVES!!!!!
 Scalpel Blades are super sharp.

CLEAN UP
Place all gloves and specimens in the blue
garbage bin.
 Rinse/dry your tray and dissecting tools
and neatly place on the desk next to sink.

Vertebrate Class Wiki Page

Create a wiki page on Darlak4science.wikispaces.com for your
assigned vertebrate class that includes information about the
following topics:

PUT IT IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
Use short bullets with the most important facts.

Include Classification: Phylum, Subphylum, (Superclass), Class
(when appropriate)
Include characteristics as directed, bulleted information,
 NOT complete sentences
*Include number of pictures as directed, including common
names and source for each picture

What is a Chordate?

All chordates have 4 basic features






Hollow Nerve Cord – Nerve cord in which nerves
branch out at regular intervals
Notochord – Long supporting rod that runs length of
body
Pharyngeal Pouches – Paired structures in throat
Muscular Tail – Extends beyond anus
Only 4-5% of all animals are chordates
Examples = Sharks, Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles,
Birds, Mammals
