10Name the three classes of fish
11What are Classes Agnatha, Chondrichthyes, and
Osteichthyes?
12Give me two examples of jawless fish (Agnathes)
13What are Hagfish and Lampreys?
14Tell me three well developed senses a shark has.
15What are sharp vision, nostrils for smell, a
lateral line system and auditory organs?
16There are three families of bony fish. What are
they and how are they named?
17What are ray-finned, fleshy-finned and lobe-
finned? They are named after their fin
arrangement.
18Why do sharks sink in the water as opposed to
salmon?
19Sharks are denser than water therefore they sink
when they stop swimming. A salmon has a swim
bladder which controls its buoyancy preventing it
from sinking.
20What does the name Amphibia refer to?
21The name Amphibia means two lives. This refers
to the larval or tadpole stage, where they live
in water and the adult or frog stage, where they
live primarily on land.
22Why must Amphibians stay near water?
23They need water to reproduce and exchange gases.
24Give three examples of Amphibians.
25What is a salamander, a frog and a toad?
26What adaptations help frogs avoid being eaten by
large predators?
27What are camouflage and skin glands which secrete
a distasteful, often poisonous, mucus?
28Of the three types of reproduction which one
describes the majority of amphibians?
29What is oviparous, which means they lay eggs that
hatch outside the mothers body?
30Give me four examples of Reptiles.
31What are lizards, snakes, turtles and
crocodilians?
32Why do reptiles have scales?
33The scales waterproof the skin and help prevent
dehydration in dry air.
34- ________ are the most diverse reptiles alive
today. Snakes are ___________ and a number of
adaptations help them hunt prey.
35What are lizards and carnivores?
36Name three general characteristics of Reptiles.
37Reptiles have scales to prevent water loss. They
have an amniotic egg which allows them to survive
on land, and they are exothermic.
38How do reptiles control their body temperature?
39Reptiles are ectotherms which means they absorb
external heat rather than generating their own.
40What are two things birds and reptiles have in
common?
41Two similarities are an amniotic egg and scales.
42Birds are able to generate heat through metabolic
energy. Once they generate this heat, how do they
stay warm?
43Feathers and a layer of fat provide insulation or
keep them warm.
44How is the anatomy of birds modified for flight?
45Several organs are absent in birds (teeth, an
ovary etc.) reducing their weight. Also their
bones are honeycombed making them strong but
light.
46What type of reproduction takes place with birds?
47Birds fertilize internally and are oviparous,
meaning they lay their eggs outside of the
mothers body.
48Why is flight advantageous for birds?
49They can locate food from an aerial view
improving their hunting ability. They can catch
flying insects which are abundant and nutritious.
Flight allows them to escape predators. Also it
allows migration, where birds can seek out
different food resources and seasonal breeding
areas.
50How many species of mammals are on Earth today?
51There are about 4500 species of mammals on Earth
today.
52What are 3 characteristics which differentiate
Mammals from all other vertebrates?
53Vertebrates of class Mammalia have hair, mammary
glands, larger brains and differentiated teeth.
54What are the three major subclasses of mammals?
Give an example of each.
55They are monotremes (echidinas), marsupials
(kangaroos), and plancental mammals (zebra).
56Monotremes are the only living mammals that
_______________. Marsupials have a maternal pouch
called a ______________.
57Monotremes lay eggs. Marsupials have a marsupium.
58Daily Double!!
59How many orders of placental mammals are there?
To which order do humans belong?
60There may be as many as 24 separate orders of
placental animals. We belong to the order
Primates.
61These are commonly called tunicates
62What are Urochordates?
63What are the three subphyla of Phylum Chordata?
64Vertebrates make up one subphylum. The other two
subphyla are made up of the invertebrates,
urochordates and cephalochordates
65Why are cephalochordates known as lancelets?
66They are known as lancelets due to their
bladelike shape.
67What is a notochord? What is it replaced by in
vertebrates?
68A notochord is a long flexible rod of mesoderm
found in all chordates. In vertebrates it is
replaced by vertebrae of backbone.
69What are the four characteristics of all
Chordates?
70What is a notochord, pharyngeal slits, a hollow,
dorsal nerve cord, and a post anal tail?
71Final Jeopardy
How do we group together / differentiate between
the seven classes of Vertebrates?
72The first three groups are fishes. Class Agnatha
are jawless where as the other two have jaws.
The other two classes can be separated based on
their skeletal arrangements (cartilage vs. bone).
The four other classes are all tetrapods,
meaning they have two sets of limbs. Reptiles,
Birds and Mammals can be separated from
Amphibians as they all are amniotes.
