Use the vertebrate lineage to explain how the cutaneous system (the skin) changed and evolved to life on land. Include which classes contributed key features and advancements. Your focus is on terrestrial vertebrates, but explain the basics of aquatic skin to show where the story started. Include how each change benefited that lineage in terms of their evolution to land (what niches did each new feature allow). HINT: Sometimes it's helpful to think in terms of Pros and Cons of the evolution of a feature. If you know I am looking for a word - bold or underline it.
