#1-Evolution and CharacteristicsMammals belong to the class Mammalia, which includes 4000 speciesMost dominant land animals on earth.A.Kingdom?B.Phylum?

#2-OriginFossil skeletons-early
mammals had large eye sockets nocturnal
Mammals did not compete with dinosaurs for food, feed on insects.

#2-OriginMammals were not
abundant during the Mesozoic era.
Fossils of the first mammals are scarce, indicating that they were not as abundant.
The Cenozoic era-the age of mammals,rapid mammal diversification
![Page 6: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

#3-Evolution•Mammals evolved
from the group of reptiles called Therapids.
•Therapids have both reptilian and mammalian characteristics.
•Therapids have a jaw bone composed of 5 bones rather than a simple jaw bone.

#3-Evolution•Like mammals, Therapids have
specialized teeth adapted for specialized functions.
•The earliest mammalian fossil found is from the early Mesozoic era, 200 million years ago

types of teeth

#5-Characteristics• Viviparous, in which females
carry their young until full development
• Females secrete milk from mammary glands to feed newborn young.
![Page 13: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Two feature that distinguish them from other vertebrates are that they all have hair and they produce milk.

#7-Mammal Orders-19 orders of mammals in the
class Mammalia -17 nourish unborn young in
the placenta (viviparous) -The other 2 (5%) are egg
laying mammals and marsupials (oviparous)
![Page 16: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
#8-Monotremata• Oviparous or egg laying mammals• Only 3 in existence• Duck-billed platypus and two species of
spiny anteaters called echidna.• Not completely endothermic (their
body temperature is lower and fluctuates more than other mammals)
![Page 17: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
#9-Marsupials• Give birth to tiny immature
young that crawl to a pouch on the mothers belly immediately after they are born.
![Page 18: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

They attach themselves to milk secreting nipples, nursing until they are mature enough to survive outside the pouch.

• 60 hundred million years ago, no placental mammals inhabited the continent
• Lacking in competition Australian marsupials underwent adapted radiation and eventually became adapted to all environments.
![Page 21: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

• The American marsupials are now assigned to two families, the Didelphidae (the opossums), Order Didelphimorphia, which occur in both North and South America,and the Caenolestidae (the shrew opossums), Order Paucituberculata, found only in South America
• American marsupials continue to thrive in competition with placental mammals and exploit a wide range of diets, being fruit-eating, carnivorous, insectivorous, ant-eating, or grazing animals, and habitats, e.g. being arboreal, terrestrial or burrowing

24
Characteristics of Placentals• Placental mammals carry unborn
young in the uterus until young can survive in the wild.
• Oxygen and nutrients are transferred from mother’s blood to baby’s blood
![Page 25: Mammals](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/56816583550346895dd82792/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Placental Characteristics
• The placenta is a membrane providing nutrients and waste & gas exchange between the mother and developing young
• Gestation period-is the time which mammals develop in mother’s uterus
