Reptile Slap-It: A Review Game A ECL 365 SI Ben white
Amniote Classification • The purpose of this game is to review and test yourself on the way that amniotes are classified • There are two sections: • Anapsid vs. Synapsid vs. Diapsid • Lepidosauria vs. Archelosauria • Play by yourself or get a big group together!
How to Play • Split your group into teams or play as individuals • Each slide will have a picture of an amniote and the taxonomic groups for that round. • Have two people stand by the board before changing slides. • As soon as the slide changes, the two players want to slap the category that the amniote on that slide belongs to. • Whoever slaps the correct category first wins a point.
Anapsid vs. Synapsid vs. Diapsid • Amniotes can first be split into three different categories based on the number of holes in their skull: • Anapsid: No temporal fenestrae • Example: Stem amniotes, turtles* • Synapsid: One temporal fenestrae • Example: Mammals and their ancestors • Diapsid: Two temporal fenestrae • Example: All extant reptiles and birds *while turtles are morphologically anapsid, they are genetically nested within diapsids
