Mammals are farther removed from echinoderms in phylogenetic alliance as they do with birds. Yet birds have a meroblastic cleavage, whereas mammalian cleavage is holoblastic, like echinoderms.
How will the mammal convince the bird that it did not deviate from family traditions?
Describe how paedomorphosis as a mechanism could explain the evolution of the chordate body plan (from echinoderm larval form to a craniate form).
Match the benefit to the correct chordate adaptation. (match each number to the correct letter)
1. allows organisms to walk on land
2. allows organisms to lay eggs on land, without water
3. allows organisms to generate their own heat
4. provides a rigid structure for muscles
A.bony skeleton
B. Ectotherm
C. Tetrapod
D. Amniotic eggs
E. Endotherm
F. Seeds
