Biology Chapter 25 - Early Tetrapods and Amphibians Slide 1 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show Amphibians - first land animals Animals that have gills and lungs during their life cycle… “transition animals” From Water to Land Movement from water to land is perhaps the most dramatic event in animal evolution Slide 2 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians What Is an Amphibian? What Is an Amphibian? An amphibian is a vertebrate that, with some exceptions: • lives in water as a larva and on land as an adult • breathes with gills as young and lungs as an adult • has moist skin that contains mucous glands • lacks scales and claws Slide 3 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians How are amphibians adapted for life on land? How have they evolved? Slide 4 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians Lobe-finned fishes (lungfish) are the sister group to tetrapods Differences in the Tetrapods: Have stronger backbone Muscles to support the body in air Muscles to elevate the head Stronger shoulder and hip girdles More protective rib cage Modified ear structure to detect airborne sounds Foreshortening of skull Slide 5 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians The first amphibians appeared about 360 million years ago. The transition from water to land required that the terrestrial vertebrates had to: • breathe air • protect themselves and their eggs from drying out • support themselves against the pull of gravity Vascular plants, pulmonate snails, and tracheate arthropods made transition earlier Amphibians only living vertebrates that have a transition from water to land in their development Slide 6 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians Showing evolutionary link to fossil record. “Missing Link” organism from water (fish) to land (tetrapods). Slide 7 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Evolution of Amphibians Lungs and breathing tubes enabled amphibians to breathe air. The sternum formed a bony shield to support and protect internal organs, especially the lungs.

Skin: The skin and the lining of the mouth cavity of many adult amphibians are thin and richly supplied with blood vessels. Watery mucus is secreted by glands in the skin.

Their intestines help break down hard-to-digest plant material and are usually filled with food. The feeding apparatus and digestive tract of adults are meat-eating structures.

Large intestine (colon) Cloaca Slide 18 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Form and Function in Amphibians Respiration In most larval amphibians, gas exchange occurs through the skin and the gills. Adult amphibians typically respire using lungs, but some gas exchange occurs through the skin and the lining of the mouth. SKIN: Thin skin loses water rapidly Restricts terrestrial forms to moist habitats Ectotherms Body temperature depends on environment and restricts range Slide 19 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Form and Function in Amphibians Circulation In frogs and other adult amphibians, the circulatory system forms a double loop. The first loop carries oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs and skin, and takes oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and skin back to the heart. The second loop transports oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body, and carries oxygen-poor blood from the body back to the heart.

Urine travels through tubes called ureters into the cloaca. Urine is then passed directly to the outside, or temporarily stored in a small urinary bladder just above the cloaca. Slide 23 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Form and Function in Amphibians Reproduction - at age 1 or 2 years In most species of amphibians, the female lays eggs in water, then the male fertilizes them externally. In a few species, including most salamanders, eggs are fertilized internally using spermatophore. After fertilization, frog eggs are encased in a sticky, transparent jelly. Slide 24 of 47 Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall End Show 30-3 Amphibians Ch. 25Amphibians Form and Function in Amphibians The jelly attaches the egg mass to underwater plants and makes the eggs difficult for predators to grasp. The yolks of the eggs nourish the embryos. (Oviparous) Most amphibians abandon their eggs after they lay them. A few amphibians take care of both eggs and young.

An amphibian's eyes are protected from damage and kept moist by a transparent nictitating membrane. This membrane is located inside the regular eyelid and can be closed over the eye.
