15. Mouth, teeth, pharynx
Fig. 16.1
Liem, Bemis, Walker & Grande.
In Deuterostomes, mouth forms where the archenteron meets the stomodeum (a fold in ectoderm).
The pharynx forms just posterior to that point.
Early in ontogeny and phylogeny it has associated gill structures.
Pharynx performsrespiratory and digestive system functions
The pharynx is the major respiratory structure in early
vertebrates.
Water high in O2 and low in CO2 enters pharynx via mouth and /
or spiracle
This water is forced across gills and out external gill slits
Blood low in O2 and high in CO2 is pumped into gills where gas
exchange takes place
What mechanism makes gases move from water to
blood or blood to water?
Diffusion gradient
Walker and Homberger
The pharynx is highly vascularizedto allow it to function in respiration.
13 = hard palate
28 = soft palate
palate separatesrespiration from ingestion
24 = oral cavity
but systemscross pathsin the pharynx
8= esophagus
33= trachea
27 = nasal cavity
21= vomero-nasal opening
Seven openings into pharynx
1 – oral cavity
2+3 – paired internal nares
4– esophagus
5– trachea
6+7 – paired eustachian tubes
a primary palate – primitive condition for Choanata
a primary palate – Still present in Dermochelys
Crocodilians evolveA long secondary Palate, as in Alligator
a short secondary
palate ispresent in
Some turtles
Synapsids evolveA long secondary Palate, as in Homo and Canis
Surrounds Internal nares

Muscles of the pharyngeal region

Tongue – modified hypobranchial muscle anchored by hyoid apparatus
Tongue function:
1- food handling
2- taste buds
3- move scent tovomeronasal organ4- prey capture
5- grooming
6- speech
Lingual or glossal refers to tongue
Genio refers to chin

Basic Terms Used for Feeding Mechanisms of Vertebrates
1. Suspension-feeding (= filter-feeding) - filter small particles (alive or dead, depending on species) out of water column
2. Suction-feeding - open mouth, suck in food
3. Ram-feeding - open mouth, swim over food
Ram-Suction Index - compares movement of food relative to movement of feeder
4. Inertial-feeding - inertia of food is used to move it in oral cavity
5. Transport - movement of food within oral cavity (by water currents in aquatic vertebrates or tongue in tetrapods)
6. Mastication - physical reduction of food size by chewing
Liem, Bemis, Walker & Grande.
Mastication requires teeth
Primitively homodont, and non-occlusal
With a variety of tooth attachment types
and tooth replacement modes
Some Important Terms for Teeth
Polyphyodont - multiple generations of tooth replacement (most vertebrates)
Diphyodont - two sets of teeth: milk and permanent (most mammals; incisor, canine and premolar teeth are replaced)
Monophyodont - a single set of teeth (e.g., cetaceans)
Homodont - teeth of similar shape along jaw
Heterodont - teeth of different shape along the jaw
Tooth plate or Toothplate - at least two uses are common:1. Many individual teeth fused together at their bases; separate cusps are still visible (e.g., in pharynx of fishes)2. Fusion of individual teeth during ontogeny: separate cusps may not still be visible (e.g., lungfishes, chimaeras)
Liem, Bemis, Walker & Grande.
Types of Mammalian Teeth and Dental Formulae
Incisor teeth (I), typically these are replaced
Canine teeth (C), typically these are replaced
Premolar teeth (P), typically these are replaced
Molar teeth (M), typically these are not replaced
Formulae are expressed as type # in upper jaw/# in lower jaw
I 5/4, C 1/1, P 2/2, M 4/4 = opossum
I 2/2, C 1/1, P 2/2, M 3/3 = humansLiem, Bemis, Walker & Grande.
Heterodonty has produced four tooth types:
