Chordates
An Introduction
Kingdom Animalia- All inverts & verts
1. Phylum Chordata: All have nerve cords.
3 subphyla :
A- Urochordata (tunicates aka sea squirts).
Only larvae have notochord
B-Cephalochordata (lancelets aka
amphioxus). Retain notochord throughout
adulthood, but “muscle- like” for
burrowing
C-Vertebrata- Notochord becomes
backbone. 7 Classes

Concept Map
Chordates
have the following
key features
Notochord
which is
Dorsal hollow
nerve cord
Muscular
tail
Pharyngeal
pouches
The Generalized Structure of a Chordate:

All Vertebrates have:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Closed circulatory system
Bilateral symmetry
True coelom
3 germ layers
Endoskeleton
Sexual reproduction- internal or external
Homeostasis
• Endothermic (warm-blooded)- internal temp.
regulation that must be maintained
Ex. Birds & Mammals
• Ectothermic (cold-blooded)- external temp.
regulation/ regulated by environment
Ex. Nonvertebrate chordates, Fish, Amphibians,
Reptiles

Behavior/structure
Fish
Ectotherm
Swim bladder:
Cold/move up
Hot/move down
Amphibian
Ectotherm
Cool/go in sun
Hot/go to water
Reptile
Ectotherm
Cool/bask
Hot/go to water
Birds
Endotherm
Cool/fluff feather
Hot/raise wings
Mammals
Endotherm
Sweat, pant,
shiver
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Subphylum Vertebrata
Class Agnatha
Jawless Fish (most primitive):
Traits:
-Sucker like mouth(no jaws)
-No fins
-Cartilage skeleton
Ex: lamprey & hagfish
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata (Sub-Vert)
Class ChondrichthyesCartilage Fish
Traits:
Cartilage skeleton; 2 chambered heart
Lateral line system –detect vibrations
(movement & sense)
Poor eyesight, great olfactory
Carnivorous or scavenger
Ex: sharks, skates, rays
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class OsteichthyesBony Fish
Traits:
Bony skeleton; 2 chambered heart
Lateral line system/movement & sense
Swim bladder-control depth
(buoyancy)
Have operculum over gills
Good smell and eyesight
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class Amphibia
Traits:
1st land vertebrates
3 chambered heart
Breath with skin/lungs
Need water to breed
Aquatic larvae; terrestrial adult
No scales or claws
Ex: frogs, toads, & salamanders
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class Reptilia
Traits:
Imperfect 4 chambered heart
Dry, scaly skin
Breathe with lungs
Lay amniotic eggs
Ex: snake, turtle, lizards
crocodile, dinosaurs
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class Aves-birds
Traits:
Down feathers for insulation
Air sacs/hollow bones make bird lighter
Lungs to breathe
4 chambered heart
Beak & feet adapted for food/habitat
Internal fert.,Lay amniotic eggs
Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class Mammalia
1. Have fur/hair
2. mammary glands
3. Length of time in uterus - gestation period
4. Give birth to live young (except monotremes)
5. 4 chambered heart
6. Diaphragm
7. Specialized teeth
Placental Mammals:
*Develop inside
uterus
*Ex:
people(primates), cats, dogs
(carnivores)
Marsupials:
pouch
*Develop inside
*Ex: kangaroos,
opossums
Monotremes:
*Lay eggs
Ex: platypus,echidna
Other placental orders
• Chiroptera-bats; only mammals that can fly;
nocturnal
• Rodentia-gnawing mammals with long
incisor teeth. Ex: rats, squirrels,
porcupines, rabbits
• Insectivora-long snout. Ex: shrews, moles
• Cetacea-Whales, dolphins

Evolution
• Change over time michael was here
• Which Chordate class do you think has
more advantages/adaptations to survive
changing times?
• Which classes have disadvantages?
• Which Chordate classes can you see
evolutionary similarities in so far?
