Q

5 Steps of Intramembranous Ossification:

A
  1. mesenchyme cells become osteoblasts
  2. produce uncalcified osteoid tissue (collagen & ground substance)
  3. ECM calcifies & forms trabeculae
  4. trabeculae form latticework (spongy bone)
  5. compact bone deposited on periphery

38
Q

A

diarthrognathus - 2 jaw joints

39
Q

What kind of jaw do juvenile opossums have?

A

opossums have a reptilian jaw - suckle with articular-quadrate articulation (but can’t hear) the dental-squamosal joint develops later

40
Q

Describe the action of shark jaws

A

weak bite for size - upper jaw in not articulated onto skull so it swings out
- suspended jaw not attached to skull
- torpedo shape has better hydrodynamics
- eat without rostrum bumping food away

41
Q

How can snakes eat such big prey?

A

snake skulls extremely kinetic - do not disarticulate jaw - double hinged each side of head moves independent of each other (move one side at a time like walking down prey)

42
Q

Do mammals or birds have a kinetic skull?

A

birds have a kinetic skull

43
Q

Kinetic skull defintion

A

able to have intracranial movements besides that at jaw (snakes, birds)

44
Q

What are advantages of an akinetic skull?

A
  1. strong skull

45
Q

What animals have a secondary palate?

A

alligators/cros & mammals

46
Q

What are the advantages of a secondary palate?

A
  1. babies able to breastfeed
  2. chew food & suffocate it underwater (eat and breath at same time)
47
Q

What does the primary palate do?

A

above nasal cavity & orbital cavity

48
Q

What does the secondary palate do?

A

separates food, swallowing, and chewing from breathing

49
Q

What are the driving factors of axial skeleton evolution?

A
  1. environment (aquatic/terrestrial)
  2. type of locomotion (bipedalism)
50
Q

Condricthes axial skeleton evolution:

A

notochord persists with vertebral body (centrum) into adulthood

51
Q

Actinopterygiians (bony fish) axial skeleton evolution:

A
  • extant primitive fish - notochord
  • other bony/derived fish - no notochord but have ossified vertebrae with prominent centrum
52
Q

Types of fish with notochord

A

sturgeon

53
Q

What do derived fish have that primitive fish do no?

A

ossified vertebrae with prominent centrum

54
Q

What is special about catfish vertebrae?

A

have barrel-shaped rings like a tree that can date the fish

55
Q

What does amphicoelus mean and what kind of animal has it?

A

fish - literally means 2 cavities - the disc doesn’t just sit in b/w vertebrae but slides into the vertebral foramen

56
Q

Status of pre/post-zygapophyses in fish?

A

Weak or absent - fish live in water and there is no need for extra support

57
Q

What are zygapophyses?

A

articulation points that hold axial skeleton together - keep in alignment

58
Q

Are amphibians amphicoelus?

A

No they are not they have solid bone with discs in between

59
Q

What is the nucleus pulposus?

A

the small core found with intervertebral discs where the notochord has left (no notochord in adult)

60
Q

How many cervical vertebrae do amphibians have?

A

one - the atlas

61
Q

What 3 groups of animals are classified in amniota?

A

reptiles, birds, mammals

62
Q

What are 3 key aspects of the reptile axial skeleton?

A
  1. 6+ cervical vertebra with small ribs
  2. stronger sacrum with 2 sacral vertebrae
  3. prominent thoracolumbar ribs
63
Q

2 functions of thoracolumbar ribs:

A

reptiles
1. support body wall
2. facilitate thoracic breathing

64
Q

What is the specialization in snake vertebra?

A
  1. prominent zygapophyses
  2. zygosphene (anterior) articulate with zygantrum (posterior)
  3. prevent vertebral torsion during locomotion
65
Q

4 modifications of birds axial skeleton:

A
  1. reduction & fusion of caudal vertebrae
  2. add a sternum keel (muscle attachment)
  3. add unicate process (reinforces one rib to another - keeps ribs in place during flight)
  4. form synsacrum (rigid structure lightweight yet strong)
66
Q

Identify green, orange, blue dots, and red region

A

Bird:
green - ilium
orange - ischium
blue - pubis
red - synsacrum

67
Q

Mammal regions from head to tail (5):

A

cervical -> thorax -> lumbar -> sacral -> caudal

68
Q

What direction is dorso-ventral flexion?

A

up and down (increases running speed)

69
Q

C1

A
  • supports the skull
  • articulates with occipital condyles
  • allows “yes” movement
70
Q

C2

A
  • weakly articulates with atlas
  • skull & atlas move together and rotate on axis for “no” motion
71
Q

What stops hyperextension of the neck?

A

the odontoid process of the dens and transverse ligament of C1

72
Q

What direction stresses the odontoid process and what direction stresses the transverse ligament?

A

odontoid process - tilting head back
transverse ligament - chin to chest

73
Q

How many cervical vertebrae do most mammals have?

A

7

74
Q

What are the exceptions to the normal number of cervical vertebrae in mammals?

A

sloth & manatee

75
Q

What are the 4 shift s in the pelvis of Homo sapiens?

A
  1. upper pelvis shift
  2. lumbar shift
  3. dorsal sacrum shift (at birth)
  4. short, broad pelvis
76
Q

What is beneficial for shortening of the pelvis?

A

lower center of gravity for walking upright (humans only bipedal)

77
Q

Human gender differences in the pelvis?

A
  1. pubic arch (men = 90/ women = >100)
  2. height (men=taller)
  3. narrower from anterior superior ischial spine and ischial spine - (men=narrower)
