Question
Answer
Six characteristics that define an animal   1. multicellular, heterotrophic 2. usually use sexual reproduction 3. no cell walls 4. motile for at least part of life 5. rapid response to external stimuli 6. diploid is dominant ploidy  
🗑
blastocoel   cavity inside blastula  
🗑
gastrula   fold in blastula due to gastrulation  
🗑
blastopore   opening to pouch/archenteron  
🗑
archenteron   internal cavity of gastrula  
🗑
ectoderm   outer germ layer becomes skin and nervous tissue  
🗑
endoderm   inner germ layer becomes digestive tract  
🗑
mesoderm   middle germ layer becomes muscles and internal organs. primitive animals dont have this  
🗑
lines of evidence that animals evolved from chanoflagellates (colonial protists)   1. similarity in cells of choanoflagellates and sponges 2. choanocytes identified in other animal phyla but not in protists 3. DNA  
🗑
Edicarian   x  
🗑
Cambrian Explosion which phyla appeared (5)   Echinoderms, chordates, porifera, cnidaria, arthropoda. Hard bodies evolved in response to predation.  
🗑
define cephalization   concentration of neurons in one region  
🗑
Which is the only diploblastic phylum?   Cnidarians  
🗑
Coelom   body cavity for development of internal organs. it is lined by mesoderm  
🗑
pseudocolomates   body cavity but it is lined only on one side by mesoderm  
🗑
name two pseudocoelomate phyla   rotifera and nematoda  
🗑
Protostome: type of cleavage? determinate or indeterminate growth? fate of blastopore?   spiral, determinate, blastopore becomes mouth  
🗑
Deuterostome: type of cleavage? determinate or indeterminate growth? fate of blastopore?   radial cleavage, indeterminate, blastopore becomes anus  
🗑
Points of agreement in animal systematics: (5)   1. all animals share a common colonial flagellate (choanoflagellate) ancestor 2. sponges are basal (the lowest form) 3. emetazoa - clade includes all animals with true tissues 4. most animals are bilateral 5. deuterostomia  
🗑
Bilateral animals split into three groups:   deuterostomia, lophotrochozoa, echydsozoa  
🗑
Define Lophotrochozoa   have either a lophophore (apical tuft of feeding cilia) or larval stage called a trochophore  
🗑
Define Ecydsozoa   external skeletons that shed as they grow  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
