gas gland
15
In regards to O2 filling the swim bladder, the change in pH is mediated by a gradient of CO2 from veins to arteries due to the ______ flow pattern

What are the 5 characteristics of chordates?
notochord, dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal pouches or slits, post anal tail, endostyle
33
what is one of the first structures to develop in early embryos?
notochord
34
what is the notochord composed of?
large cells with vacuoles surrounded by connective tissue sheath
35
how does the hollow nerve cord develop?
dorsal ectoderm (neural plate) folds in, neural fold piches off to form hollow tube, neural cres cells branch out to become peripheral nerves
