Name: ________________________________ TOC# Reproductive Systems in Various Vertebrates Pre-lab questions 1. What is the function of a reproductive system? 2. Why is a reproductive system essential to evolution? 3. What do you think is similar about the reproductive system of fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals? 4. What do you think is different about the reproductive system of fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals? Procedure 1. Your group will research the reproductive system of a particular class of vertebrates. 2. Use the following pages in the green IS textbook as well as the Internet to complete your research. 3. *Class Osteichthyes (Bony Fish): p.494 *Class Reptilia (Reptiles) p.518 *Class Amphibia (Amphibians) p. 502 *Class Aves (Birds) p.528 *Class Mammalia (Mammals) p. 542-543 4. Then your group will create a poster in order to teach the class about your class of vertebrate 5. As each group presents, you will take notes on each system. If you need more info for your project, you can read the pages too! Class and reproductive habitat Type of Egg Amniotic or Anamniotic Osteichthyes Anamniotic (Bony Fish) Habitat: How does your group of organisms reproduce? Please include type of fertilization (internal, external, or both) as well as how the developing young are nourished 3 ways fish can reproduce: 3 Interesting facts Name: ________________________________ Amphibia Anamniotic Include reproduction and Life cycle Habitat: Reptilia Amniotic Habitat: draw an amniotic egg and describe the structures and functions of the amnion, chorion, yolk sac, embryo, and allantois in the analysis section Aves Amniotic Habitat: Mammalia Habitat: Amniotic Include all three types TOC# Name: ________________________________ TOC# Analysis Questions 1. Draw an example of an amniotic egg and include the function of amnion, chorion, yolk sac, embryo, and allantois in the analysis section 2. How are the reproductive systems similar in fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals? 3. How are the reproductive systems different in fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals? 4. Describe the selective pressures that would have led to the differences fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and mammals. Take discussion notes on the back of this page
