Chapter 34 Vertebrates Overview: Half a Billion Years of Backbones * Vertebrates are named for vertebrae‚ the series of bones that make up the vertebral column or backbone. * There are about 52‚000 species of vertebrates‚ far fewer than the 1 million insect species on Earth. * Plant-eating dinosaurs‚ at 40‚000 kg‚ were the heaviest animals to walk on land. * The biggest animal that ever existed is the blue whale‚ at 100‚000 kg. * Humans and our closest relatives are

Human anatomy is primarily the scientific study of the morphology of the human body.Anatomy is subdivided into gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy (histology) Gross anatomy (also called topographical anatomy‚ regional anatomy‚ or anthropotomy) is the study of anatomical structures that can be seen by the naked eye. Microscopic anatomy involves the use of microscopes to study minute anatomical structures‚ and is the field of histology which studies the organization of tissues at all levels‚ from

The Evolution of Fish: Vertebrates Begin If you were to look at the oceans 530 million years ago‚ you would be amazed by the wild array of creatures thriving in the waters. The seas abound with robust rainbows of corals and starfish. Huge schools of jellyfish pump through the waters while the sea floor is alive with a variety of mollusks and crustaceans. Life would likely have appeared to be as diverse as it could get. Then in the waters off the coast of China appeared a new‚ tiny little creature:

Vertebrate Adaptations For Terrestrial Life AP-Biology Essay on vertebrate structural adaptations for terrestrial life. (From an actual past AP-BIOLOGY test) The problems of survival of animals on land are very different from those of survival of animals in aquatic environment. Describe four problems associated with animal survival in terrestrial environments but not in aquatic environments. For each problem‚ explain a physiological of structural solution. Four problems faced by animals

Rise of the Animals: Triumph of the Vertebrates The new frontier for fossil discoveries is China. Here Scientist are able to take evidence for evolutionary theories. The fossil record contains many well-documented examples of the transition from one species into another‚ as well as the origin of new physical features. Evidence from the fossil record is unique‚ because it provides a time perspective for understanding the evolution of life on Earth. David Attenborough embarks on an epic 500-million-year
