Paleozoic Life forms: Plants
Terrestrial plant evolution apparently did not occur until the mid-Silurian…

Paleozoic Life forms: Plants
The first land plants (Bryophytes) were very, very “simple”: non-vascular (they lacked water-conducting tissues). They include liverworts and mosses.

Paleozoic Life forms: Plants
A big evolutionary advance occurred with the development of a vascular stem (Tracheophytes). Water and minerals could be distributed throughout the plant.

Vertebrate Evolution The first true chordates evolved during the Neoproterozoic, but since hard body parts didn’t, we know little about them.

Vertebrate Evolution The first true chordates evolved during the Neoproterozoic, but since hard body parts didn’t, we know little about them. The first pieces we have from what we believe were chordates are Cambrian in age: Conodonts

Vertebrate Evolution
The conodont animal was almost a fish. True fish, did not officially appear on the scene until the Late Cambrian/Early Ordovician.

The first “fish” to cross over on to land needed to have strong “legs”.

The first “fish” to cross over on to land needed to have strong “legs”. But they took their life style with them (thin porous skin, reproduction by “naked” eggs laid in water).

Vertebrate Evolution
The first “fish” to cross over on to land needed to have strong “legs”. But they took their life style with them (thin porous skin, reproduction by “naked” eggs laid in water). Thus evolved the first amphibians (Class: Amphibia)

A classic missing link fossil was recently found in northern Canada (Tiktaalik roseae). It shares features of both fish and amphibians.

The amphibians arose in the Devonian (Age of Plants) when there were lots of wetlands (swamps).

Mammal Evolution
Meet one of your earliest ancestors. It evolved from a group of mammal-like reptiles (therapsids) that appeared in the Triassic.
![Page 46: UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH ALABAMA Last time we covered GY 112](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022021305/6207374649d709492c2f1afc/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Mammal Evolution
Thus appeared the Mammals (Class: Mammalia). They may have first evolved in the Triassic, but they didn’t take off in numbers until the start of the Cenozoic.

Mammal Evolution
All Mammals share the following common characteristics:
•Fur •Mammary glands •Mostly live birth

Mammal Evolution
We distinguish 3 mammalian subclasses (these are not their official names, just common names):

Mammal Evolution
We distinguish 3 mammalian subclasses (these are not their official names, just common names): •Monotremes egg-laying mammals; first of the class to appear in the rock (Triassic)

Mammal Evolution
We distinguish 3 mammalian subclasses (these are not their official names, just common names): •Marsupials: live birth, but require further development time in a pouch (Mid Cretaceous)

Mammal Evolution
We distinguish 3 mammalian subclasses (these are not their official names, just common names): •Placental mammals: live birth; young “fully” developed at birth (Late Cretaceous)
