COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF VERTEBRATES AND EMBRIOLOGY
(objectives)
THE COURSE PROPOSES THE OBJECTIVE TO SUPPLY THE STUDENT THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE ABOUT BIOLOGY AND THE ANATOMY OF THE SUBPHYLUM OF THE VERTEBRATES IN EVOLUTIONARY KEY. THE ANATOMY ORGANIZATION IS READ, FOR EACH CLASS OF VERTEBRATES, IN ADAPTIVE AND EVOLUTIONARY TERMS. VERTEBRATI ALLOWS A COMPARISON WITH THE NUMEROUS FOSSIL FORMS, NOT AVAILABLE FOR OTHER PHYLA ANIMALS. THE PREVALENTLY EXPECTED FORMATION OBJECTIVES CONTAIN: 1) LEARNING AND STUDYING THE COMPARATIVE METHOD 2) THE USE OF KNOWLEDGE TO PROCESS EXPLANATIONS 3) OBSERVATION, DESCRIPTION, THE CAPACITY OF DETECTION. ACQUISITION OF THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE ON THE GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF ANIMAL DEVELOPMENT, FROM THE GAMETOGENESIS TO THE FORMATION OF THE ORGANS. SETTING THE BASES FOR THE UNDERSTANDING OF MOLECULAR MECHANISMS THAT ADJUST DEVELOPMENT PROCESSES, SUCH AS CELL DIFFERENTIATION AND MORPHOGENESIS. TO SUPPORT THEORETICAL SKILLS TO THE STUDENT AND PRACTICES THAT ALLOW THE MICROSCOPIC RECOGNITION OF EMBRYON STRUCTURES OF VERTEBRATI.

GIBERTINI GIANCARLO
(syllabus)
Origin of Vertebrates. The first Agnates and the appearance of Gnatostomes. Diversity and evolutionary success of aquatic bed vertebrates based on their anatomy and reproductive biology. Origin of the Tetrapods and conquest of the land emerged. The advent of the amniotic egg and the definitive conquest of the terrestrial environment by the Reptiles. Birds and flight adaptation. The diversity of Mammals is the expression of a natural plasticity and of ongoing evolutionary processes. Comparative Anatomy of Organic Vertebrate Systems: Food Strategies in Vertebrates: Respiratory, Digestive and Circulatory Systems; organization, development and function of equipment involved in the intake of food, in their treatment, in the capture of oxygen and the circulation of blood and lymph. Evolution of the Uro-Genital System in Vertebrates: organization of the renal system. Modalities and types of excretion. Sexual differentiation and sex determination. Reproductive

From a single cell to a multicellular organism: differentiation and morphogenesis. Study models. Sexual reproduction. Structural differences between the egg and the spermatozoon. Fertilization: recognition of gametes at a distance and by contact. Activation of the spermatozoon. Fusion of gametes. Activation of the egg. Prevention of polispermy. General information on the various stages of development: segmentation, gastrulation, organogenesis. The types of eggs and the related division patterns. Development of the anfiosso. Radial segmentation, gastrulation: cellular mechanisms. Early stages of organogenesis: neurulation. Development of amphibians. Segmentation: macromers and micromers. Gastrulation and early stages of organogenesis. Bird Development. Discoid segmentation. Gastrulation: primitive stria and Hensen's knot. Neurulation. The mesoderm and the fate of the regions in which it is subdivided. Somatopleura and splancnopleura. The celoma. The extraembryonic outbuildings: amnios, corion, allantoide and yolk sac.
