HAND INHAND INFOR YOUR EXIT ACTIVITYFOR YOUR EXIT ACTIVITY

Task C-2 today Task C-2 today does NOT deal with does NOT deal with echinoderms and echinoderms and

chordates…chordates…

Let’s do it first!Let’s do it first!

• work as a pair

• get one of the invertebrate keying boxes

• use the dichotomous key (Table 9-1)

• CORRECTIONS to Table 9-1 in your lab manual:9. Two pairs of antennae; cephalothorax present........subphylum Crustacea/class Crustacea9. One pair of antennae, cephalothorax absent................(mark out old subphylum here)...10

10. Wings usually present; three pairs of walking legs....subphylum Hexapoda/class Insecta10. Wings absent; more than three pairs of walking legs..............subphylum Myriapoda...11

Task C-2: Invertebrate keying

• fill in Table 9-3 for each organism in the box (TAs will be checking for this as part of your exit activity)

• if you don’t know common names, ask a TA

• not all have subphyla

• you should expect to be able to make such phylum, subphylum, and class identifications on the lab final (without help or a key) for these and any other specimens that have been in lab

Task C-2: Invertebrate keying

• coelomate; unsegmented

• pentamerous radial symmetry

• water vascular system

• dermal endoskeleton with spines

Phylum Echinodermata

• 4 selected classes to examine in lab:

• Asteroidea (sea stars or starfish)

• Ophiuroidea (brittle stars)

• Echinoidea (sea urchins and sand dollars)

• Holothuroidea (sea cucumbers)

• watch the video for body plan and feeding….

Phylum Echinodermata

• examine the preserved specimens, note the following:

• for each: compare to Fig. 9-1, note body plan 5-part radial symmetry, endoskeleton, lack of segmentation

Task A-1: Phylum Echinodermata

•Asteroidea (sea stars) – five arms, madreporite, central disc, mouth, tube feet, coelom

•Ophiuroidea (brittle stars) – five arms, central disc

• examine the preserved specimens, note the following:

• Echinoidea (sea urchins and sand dollars) – look for pentamerous characteristics; jaws

Task A-1: Phylum Echinodermata

• examine the preserved specimens, note the following:

• Holothuroidea (sea cucumbers) – not typically sedentary, just slow (lab manual is wrong)

Task A-1: Phylum Echinodermata

Radial Radial musclemuscle

CloaCloaca & ca & ventvent

• group unified by four traits present at some point in the life cycle for all members

Phylum Chordata

• three subphyla

• Urochordata – tunicate or sea squirt

• Cephalochordata – lancelet or amphioxus

• Vertebrata – have a backbone; fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals (classes listed later)

• watch the video for some information on the body plan and development….

Phylum Chordata

• examine the preserved specimens and models, note the following:

• Urochordata – tunicate or sea squirt

• sessile adult; cellulose tunic, holdfast, siphons, pharynx

• image on following slide….

Task B-1: Invertebrate Chordates

• examine the preserved specimens and models, note the following:

• Cephalochordata – lancelet or Amphioxus

• specimen, model, and slide; match to Figs. 9-2 and 9-3

• note oral hood, fins, myotomes, dorsal nerve cord, notochord, pharynx, pharyngeal gill slits, postanal tail; other items from figures

Task B-1: Invertebrate Chordates

• Vertebrata – 7 selected classes

• Agnatha – jawless fish

• Chondrichthyes – cartilaginous fish (sharks, skates, and rays)

• Osteichthyes – bony fish with paired fins

• Amphibia – two pairs of legs; smooth skin (frogs, salamanders, etc.)

• Reptilia – two pairs of legs; scaly skin (lizards, snakes, alligators, etc.)

• Aves – feathers; paired wings and legs (birds)

• Mammalia – hair, mammary glands, two paired appendages

Subphylum Vertebrata

• obtain a “vertebrate box” and examine the preserved specimens, note the following:

• Agnatha – brook lamprey

• jawless; single median dorsal and caudal fins (no paired lateral fins); 7 pairs of external gill slits

• Chondrichthyes – shark

• scales (makes sandpapery skin); various fins (note especially those in pairs); claspers on pelvic fins of mature males; cloacal opening

Task B-2: Subphylum Vertebrata

• Osteichthyes – yellow perch

• scales, operculum over gills, various fins (note pairs); lateral lines (from operculum to caudal fin)

• Amphibia – leopard frog and salamander

• smooth skin (no scales); 4 legs – count digits; tympanum on frog; eyelids (do other box items have eyelids?)

Task B-2: Subphylum Vertebrata

• Reptilia – green anole lizard, turtle, and garter snake

• scaly skin, 4 legs (reduced to vestigial in snake); lizard – claws, eyelids; turtle – carapace and plastron

• Aves and Mammalia – no specimens

• demonstration table – identify specimens by class (you do NOT include them on Table 9-2, but they ARE eligible to be on the lab final)

Task B-2: Subphylum Vertebrata
