Cetartiodactyla skull and dentition characteristics (omit headgear for this question): For each Order of Mammalia in this lab, describe the skull characteristics. Be sure to note if incisors (upper/lower), canines, premolars and molars are present. Also note special features of molar teeth in the bobcat and the mule deer. If it’s easier to instead do this on the field guide with an annotated picture of each skull type, that works too – just note that here.

From the following 5 characters, characterise at least 2 key features of the dinosaur teeth provided and use it to determine whether each dinosaur is a carnivore or a herbivore. Write the supporting characteristics out in full but also give the associated character number and its state e.g., denticles absent, 4(0).
Fill in the Blanks Compare the following mammal skulls and decide whether their teeth shapes are generally sharp, flat, or intermediate. Bobcat: Fox:Pig:Sheep: Fill in the Blanks Based on their teeth shape and dental formulas, state whether each of these mammals are herbivores, carnivores, or omnivores. Bobcat:Fox:Pig:Sheep: Review the forelimb skeletal anatomy figure in your reading exercise (Figure 8.4). Look at the types of bones and the number of bones found in each tetrapod forelimb. Limbs with digits are homologous for tetrapods. Create a hypothesis explaining what bones the common ancestor of tetrapods probably possessed. Based on similarities among forelimbs, what bones did the common ancestor of tetrapods probably possess? In your answer, refer to the bones and how they are connected to each other.
Sharks are cartilaginous fish. That is, the bulk of their skeleton is composed of cartilage instead of calcified bone. Their jaw however, is calcified, and is often the only preserved part of their body. Examine the shark jaw in the photo, and deduce the overall symmetry of the organism based on the jaw. Bilateral Pentameral Asymmetrical Radial
From the following 5 characters, characterise at least 2 key features of the dinosaur teeth provided and use it to determine whether each dinosaur is a carnivore or a herbivore. Write the supporting characteristics out in full but also give the associated character number and its state e.g., denticles absent, 4(0). 1. Tooth shape: (0) Cylindrical [inconclusive] (1) Conical [carnivore] (2) Low and broad [herbivore] 2. Tooth curvature: (0) Straight [inconclusive] (1) Recurved [carnivore] 3. Tooth top: (0) Flat [herbivore] (1) Single sharp cusp [carnivore] (2) Multiple sharp cusp [herbivore] (3) Single rounded cusp [inconclusive] 4. Denticles (serrations): (0) Absent [inconclusive] (1) 'Coarse', few in number and very large [herbivore] (2) 'Fine', many and relatively small [carnivore] 5. Constriction between top and base of tooth (0) Absent or weak. Constriction occupies >85% of largest width [inconclusive] (1) Well-developed. Construction occupying <85% of largest width [herbivore]…

Using the 3-D models and list of cranial traits, describe the general cranial morphology for H. neanderthalensis. Be sure to describe at least three cranial traits of H. neanderthalensis (i.e., skull size/morphology, prognathism, occipital anatomy, forehead, or dentition). (Minimum of 2 complete sentences.)
All of these characteristics of P. aethiopicus suggest that it may represent an evolutionary connection between A. afarensis and P. boisei, EXCEPT: Pneumatized mastoid region Brain size of 410 cc Compound temporal-nuchal crest Large posterior an anterior dentition Sagittal crest that extends from posterior to anterior on the cranial vault
