As the embryo develops only jawless fish retain the notochord What does this indicate about the evolution of vertebrates?
The fact that jawless fish retain the notochord during development suggests that jawed vertebrates have evolved to develop without the notochord. This indicates that the notochord is an ancestral characteristic that has been lost or modified in the evolutionary lineage leading to jawed vertebrates.
Which milestone in the evolution of animals classifies them as either vertebrates or invertebrates?
The development of the notocord.
Is the eye an example of convergent evolution?
Yes. For instance, vertebrates and octopuses evolved a very similar type of eye, independently from one another.
Which animals evolved from lungfish?
Amphibians are believed to have evolved from the lineage of lungfish during the Devonian period. This transition from aquatic to terrestrial life marked a significant step in the evolution of vertebrates.
Are gorillas vertebrates or invertebrates?
Gorillas are vertebrates. They belong to the group of animals called mammals, all of which are vertebrates because they have a backbone or spinal column.
How many pages does Evolution of the Vertebrates have?
Evolution of the Vertebrates has 576 pages.
When was Evolution of the Vertebrates created?
Evolution of the Vertebrates was created on 2001-12-15.
What is the ISBN of Evolution of the Vertebrates?
The ISBN of Evolution of the Vertebrates is 0-471-38461-5.
What is the realtioship between vertebrates and evolution?
Well, vertebrates evolved from non-vertebrates if that's what you mean.

What was the evolution before vertebrates?
The same as it was when and after vertebrates. Evolution is the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms. Change over time. Happens and happened in single celled organisms and invertebrates long before there were vertebrates.
Why was the evolution of the wateright egg so important in vertebrate evolution?
The evolution of the watertight egg allowed vertebrates to reproduce on land, breaking their dependence on water for reproduction. This adaptation enabled vertebrates to exploit terrestrial habitats and diversified their evolutionary opportunities.
Which milestone in the evolution of animals classifies them as either vertebrates or invertebrates?
The development of the notocord.
The larvae that may be the link between vertebrates and invertebrates in evolution is what?
Maybe an ammocoete larva.

What is the importance of the evolution of the jaws in fishes?
The evolution in bone in fishes to the evolution of vertebrates include ; the fish uses the bone for flexibility and the vertebrates are for solely the reason for structural support
What is suggested by the similarity of early embryos of different species of vertebrates?
evolution from a distant common ancestor
