Vertebrate FeaturesVertebrate Features
All living vertebrates share similar structural features:– Bilateral symmetry– A postanal tail– An anterior brain– Specialized sense organs– Centrally located vertebral skeleton for
support

FishesFishes There are more species of fishes than all other
vertebrate groups combined, and a majority of these are marine.
Classes include:– Agnatha (cyclostomata) a primitive fish lacking
paired fins and true jaws. Rep: lampreys and hagfishes
– Chondrichthyes include sharks, rays and skates. They exhibit true jaws, paired fins, and scales but a cartilagenous skeleton.
– Osteichthyes are the bony fish and have true jaws, paired fins, scales and a bony skeleton

TetrapodsTetrapods Three classes of air-breathing marine
tetrapods – Reptilia, Aves, Mammalia Sea snakes, turtles, the marine iguana,
marine crocodiles, and a large number of birds and mammals forage the sea.
Reptiles and birds share several adaptations, including nasal salt glands and uric acid excretion.
Marine mammals include two groups, the cetaceans (whales, porpoises, dolphins) and the pinnipeds (seals, sea lions, and walruses) as well as sea otters, manatees, and dugongs.

Marine Amphibians: Marine Amphibians: Crab-eating frogCrab-eating frog
Amphibians on the whole are intolerant of saline conditions, but the Crab-eating frog is among the very few exceptions. It is found in the brackish-water of mangrove streams and also in adjacent damp, grassy areas.

What is the Difference Between What is the Difference Between a Dolphin and a Porpoise?a Dolphin and a Porpoise?
Dolphins and porpoises are so similar that it is easy to confuse which is which.
In general, porpoises are smaller and plumper than dolphins, rarely reaching lengths of more than 6 feet and weights of more than 300 pounds. They have a rounded head and a small, triangular dorsal fin. Porpoises lack the "beak" characteristic of most dolphins, having a blunt snout instead.
