Explain how cartilaginous and bony fish regulate the salt found in water?
Bony fish drink alot of seawater for hydration. Sharks reabsurb the area by the break down of protein back into their tissue.
What are some key differences in life's history between cartilaginous and bony fish?
Sharks have a life strategy that requires slow growth to a relatively large size, while fish demonstrate rapid growth and reach maturity younger.
Describe how sharks reproduce.
Their reproduction is internal. They have pelvic claspers that serve as the sperm conducting structure for internal fertilization.

Cartilaginous Fish
What makes cartilaginous fish different from others?
Skeletons are made from cartilage
Examples of cartilaginous fish?
Sharks, Rays, Chimeras
What is special about sharks eyes?
They can protect their eye with a tough third eye lid
Difference between cartilaginous and bony fish?
a)Blood and heart
Sharks have larger and fewer blood cells
b)External features
Shark skin is covered by dermal deaticles
Bony fish is covered by flat scales
c)Digestive evacuation
Sharks kidneys and genitals empty into one opening
Bony fish have two, rectum and anus

Marine Arthropods
Example of marine arthropods?
Crustacea, pycnogonida, merostomata
Difference between arthropod and human skeleton?
Arthropods skeletons are on the outside and is used as armor
Compare/contrast how arthropods and humans carry their blood?
Arthropods have no arteries or veins to carry blood while humans do. Arthropods blood is pumped through sinuses.
How do arthropods eyes differ from yours?
They have compound eyes, it is composed of small light sensitive organs called ommatidia.
How do humans use marine arthropods?
As a food source.

Nine Major Animal Phyla
List Nine major animal phyla
Marine(salt water), fresh water, terrestrial
How do they digest food?
"Complete" digestive system and "Incomplete" digestive system
Have you seen an example of phyla?
I have seen many, Arthropods, Mollusks, and Chordates in salt and fresh water phyla habitats. Such as when i fish at a lake or go to the beach
- Sponges
- Coelenterates
- Flat worms
- Roundworms
- Segmented Worms
- Arthropods
