What ecdysis is
molting of the exoskeleton
The name for the hard plate that covers the gills of fish
operculum (gill cover)
Define Ectothermic
Obtain heat from external sources
Regulate body temperature by moving in and out of sunlight
Define poikilothermic
an organism whose internal temperature varies considerably
Define endothermic
Maintain a relatively constant body temperature independent of the environmental temperature
Characteristics of vertebrates
nerve cord, notochord, pharyngeal slits, postanal tail
What amphibians evolved from
lobe-finned fish
Why amphibians can’t completely live on dry land
reproduction still in water to prevent egg from drying
