“The Channel-billed Cuckoo is the world’s largest cuckoo.”
Detailed and concise dissection directions, updated valuable information and extraordinary illustrations make The Dissection of Vertebrates, 3rd Edition the new ideal manual for students in comparative vertebrate anatomy, as well as a superb reference for vertebrate and functional morphology, vertebrate paleontology, and advanced level vertebrate courses, such as in mammalogy, ornithology, ichthyology, and herpetology. This newly revised edition of the most comprehensive manual available continues to offer today's more visually oriented student with a manual combining pedagogically effective text with high-quality, accurate and attractive visual references. This new edition features updated and expanded phylogenetic coverage, revisions to the illustrations and text of the lamprey, shark, perch, mudpuppy, frog, cat, pigeon, and reptile skull chapters, and new sections on amphioxus or lancelet (Branchiostoma, Cephalochodata), a sea squirt (Ciona, Urochordata), shark musculature, a gravid shark, shark embryo, cat musculature, and the sheep heart. Using the same systematic approach within a systemic framework as the first two editions, The Dissection of Vertebrates, 3rd Edition covers several animals commonly used in providing an anatomical transition sequence. Nine animals are covered: amphioxus, sea squirt, lamprey, shark, perch, mudpuppy, frog, cat, and pigeon, plus five reptile skulls, two mammal skulls, and the sheep heart. | Author: Gerardo De Iuliis|Dino Pulerà | Publisher: Academic Press | Publication Date: Aug 20, 2019 | Number of Pages: 416 pages | Language: English | Binding: Paperback | ISBN-10: 0124104606 | ISBN-13: 9780124104600
A Venn Diagram is a graphic organizer that compares/contrasts two or more things. When students compare and contrast, they observe the similarities and differences between things. The Venn Diagram shows how things are alike and how they are different. A Venn Diagram is made with two (or more) overlapping circles. Where the circles overlap, students write the characteristics that the things have in common. To the right and left of the overlapping area is where students list the differing characteristics of the things. The students could compare/contrast the characteristics of vertebrates and invertebrates and thus demonstrate their understanding of how these animals are alike and how they are different. Here is an example. The students could draw the Venn Diagrams in their English Language Arts or Science notebook or you could download one of the FREE Venn Diagram Worksheets from Learning Workroom's website. Click Here: www.LearningWorkroom.com Go to Free Worksheets Extension Activity (Combining Science and Language Arts) After completing the Venn Diagram, students can use the information in their Venn Diagrams to write an expository essay. An expository essay is written to inform readers about a specific subject. The essay should have 3 parts: a beginning, a middle, and an ending. Extension Activities (Combining Science and Art) Students could draw and label pictures of a vertebrate and an invertebrate. Students could create 2 posters. On one poster they could draw and label several vertebrates. Students could also get pictures online or from old magazines. Then could also list important characteristics about this group of animals on their poster. The other poster could be about invertebrates. ______________________________________________________________________
“The Channel-billed Cuckoo is the world’s largest cuckoo.”
Vertebrate, any animal of the subphylum Vertebrata. They have backbones and are also characterized by a muscular system consisting primarily of bilaterally paired masses and a central nervous system partly enclosed within the backbone. Its members include fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.

This worksheet compares the anatomy of the human and rabbit for students to use as a study aid, dissection guide, or instead of an actual dissection. Students color, label and answer questions. There is an information sheet to help students fill out the labeling sheet. This is the second installmen...
