    The earliest recorded acanthodian, Fanjingshania renovata, [19] comes from the lower Silurian of China and it is also the oldest jawed vertebrate with known anatomical features. [19] Coeval to Fanjingshania is the tooth-based acanthodian species Qianodus duplicis [20] that represents the oldest unequivocal toothed vertebrate. Osteichthyes

  3. Archicortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archicortex

    The archicortex is most prevalent in the olfactory cortex and the hippocampus, [4] which are responsible for processing smells and forming memories, respectively. [5] Because olfaction is considered to be the phylogenetically oldest sensory modality, [6] and the limbic system, of which the hippocampus is a part, is one of the oldest systems in the brain, [7] it is likely that the archicortex ...

    This arch divides into a maxillary process and a mandibular process, giving rise to structures including the bones of the lower two-thirds of the face and the jaw. The maxillary process becomes the maxilla (or upper jaw, although there are large differences among animals [11]), and palate while the mandibular process becomes the mandible or lower jaw.

    The mouth is located just behind the head, after a rostrum, on the underside of the body. It has a pair of cuticular jaws, supplied by strong muscles, and often bearing minute teeth. A "basal plate" on the lower surface that bears a comb-like structure is also present.

    The pulp is a soft tissue area containing the nerve and blood vessels to nourish and protect the tooth, located within the pulp cavity. A tooth sits in a specialized socket called the alveolus. The tooth is held in location by a periodontal ligament, with the assistance of cementum. Teeth are surrounded by gingiva, or gums, part of the ...

    A chordate (/ ˈ k ɔːr d eɪ t / KOR-dayt) is a deuterostomal bilaterian animal belonging to the phylum Chordata (/ k ɔːr ˈ d eɪ t ə / kor-DAY-tə).All chordates possess, at some point during their larval or adult stages, five distinctive physical characteristics (synapomorphies) that distinguish them from other taxa.

  8. Evolution of mammalian auditory ossicles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_mammalian...

    The evolution of the mammalian middle ear appears to have occurred in two steps. A partial middle ear formed by the departure of postdentary bones from the dentary, and happened independently in the ancestors of monotremes and therians. The second step was the transition to a definite mammalian middle ear, and evolved independently at least ...
