To determine: The structure derived from the vertebrate embryonic forebrain.
Introduction: All vertebrates have the same basic structure of the brain, which only differs on the basis of complexity especially of the cerebrum and cerebellum. The vertebrate brain is divided into three parts that are the hindbrain, the midbrain, and the forebrain. These divisions are further subdivided into different parts.

- What structures play a role in protecting vertebrate central nervous tissue?arrow_forwardWhich of the following best explains how knowledge of the developing human embryo and its gill arches helps to make sense of the complicated nerves of the face and the structures they innervate? A) Because structures that develop from the same gill arch are all innervated by the same nerve which also develops from that arch. B) Because each gill arch controls one of the developing tissues such that the first arch develops all of the bones of the head, the second arch all the nerves of the head, the third arch the muscles, and the fourth arch the skin. C) Because the first and second gill arches control the development of the nerves of the face, while the second and third control the development of the bones, muscles, and skin. D) Because humans are mammals, they do not have gill arches as embryos.arrow_forwardAre humans deuterstomes or protostomes?arrow_forward
- Mammals have brains that are more complex than those offish and amphibians, particularly in terms of expansion of thecerebral cortex. Does this increased complexity make mammalsmore advanced and fish and amphibians more primitive? Why orwhy not?arrow_forwardHow would you design an experiment to demonstrate the organizing influence of the midbrain/hindbrain border and what is the molecular basis for this organizing ability?arrow_forwardWhich part of the vertebrate brain maintains posture, muscle tone, and equilibrium? (a) cerebrum (b) medulla (c) cerebellum (d) neocortex (e) thalamusarrow_forward
- Which vertebrates have a lateral line system and which do not?arrow_forwardWhich of the following are NOT trends that have occurred during the evolution of the central nervous system in invertebrates? A)none of the above – all are trends B)The positioning of nerve chords at the ventral end of the animal C)The development of sensory structures for the detection of gravity, sound and light D)Increasing the size of cerebral ganglia and formation of a “brain” E)The processing of sensory information by neural ganglia and the generation of motor commandsarrow_forwardOn a field trip to a lake, a college student captures a worm-shaped animal with segmented body wall muscles. While examining the specimen in the laboratory the following day, she determines that the main nerve cord runs along the ventral side of the animal. Is this animal a chordate?arrow_forward
- Given the following images of primate skulls: What is the function of the brain crest? If a primate does not have a crest, what does it say about the primate? How are the sizes of the forehead and temporal area related to the volume or size of the brain?arrow_forwardIs the tubular-dorsal nervous system of chordates associated to radial or lateral symmetry? How does that explain the complexity level of the nervous system reached by the vertebrate evolutionary branch?arrow_forwardOnly mammals possess 3 ossicles in the ear? TRUE OR FALSE?arrow_forward
