distribution and evolution in fishes, 24 species representing 24 families and all four major orders of otophysan fishes were surveyed. A combination of light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to search 15 body regions for the presence of extraoral taste buds. Taste bud morphologies and distributions were then mapped onto an existing phylogeny of otophysan fishes, allowing for inferences regarding evolutionary history. Results suggest that extraoral taste buds may have evolved

students to reflect on the kind of media consumer that they are—“Click baiter,” “Web surfer,” or “Critical thinker.” My project aims to help students identify as different readers and consumers in order to evaluate their position in society in comparison to the readers and consumers seen in Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.
