Endostyle are found in invertebrate chordates. It functions similarly to the thyroid found on vertebrates.

The urostyle on the other hand is a bone found in a frog. It is combined with two illium bones, a pubis and ischium to create a grouping of bones that function similarly to a human pelvis.

What is the function of endostyle in Branchiostoma?

In Branchiostoma, also known as amphioxus, the endostyle serves as a specialized glandular structure that plays a crucial role in filter feeding. It produces mucus to trap food particles, such as phytoplankton, as water passes through the pharyngeal slits. The endostyle also helps in the movement of trapped particles towards the digestive tract, facilitating nutrient absorption. Additionally, it is considered an evolutionary precursor to the thyroid gland in more advanced vertebrates.


Why are atlas sacral and urostyle classified as a typical vertebrae?

Atlas, sacral, and urostyle vertebrae are considered typical because of their typical features for their respective regions of the spine. For example, the atlas is the first cervical vertebra that supports the skull, the sacral vertebrae fuse to form the sacrum and provide stability to the pelvis, and the urostyle is a specialized vertebra found in amphibians that supports the pelvis and hindlimbs.

How does the frog's skeleton differ from that of man?

Frogs lack several vertebrae and do not have a pelvis. They also have structures not found in the human skeleton i.e. the urostyle. A frog has a 3 chambered heart (2 upper chambers (atria) and only 1 lower chamber) compared to the 4 chambered heart a human has. Humans and amphibians have lots of differences too.
