MD 12 Anthropoda
Information from Biology MD 12 on Anthropoda
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Exoskeleton | A body covering, typically of chitin, that provides support and protection |
| Molt | To shed an outer covering so it can be replaced with a new one |
| Thorax | Body region between the head and the abdomen |
| Abdomen | Body region posterior to the thorax |
| Cephalothorax | Body region composed of the head and thorax fuzed together |
| Compound Eye | An eye made of man lenses, each with a very limited scope |
| Simple eye | An eye with only one lense |
| Open Circulatory System | A circulatory system that allows the blood to flow out of the blood vessels and into various body cavities so that the cells are in direct contact with the blood |
| Statocyst | Organ of balance in a crustacean |
| Gonad | General term for the gamete-producing organ |
| Complete Metamorphosis | Insect development consisting of 4 stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult |
| Incomplete Metamorphosis | Insect development consisting of 3 stages: egg, nymph, adult |
| Characteristics of Anthropoda | Exoskeleton, Body Segementation, Jointed Appendages, Ventral Nervous System, Open Circulatory System |
| The largest anthropods are in class: | Crustecea |
| Anthropoda Divisions | Head, Thorax, Abdomen |
| "Anthropoda" means | "Joint-Footer" (Because of muscles UNDER skeleton) |
| What kind of head does the Crayfish have? | A cephalothorax covered with a plate called a carapace |
| Crayfish Anatomy | Walking legs, Swimmerets, Uropods+Telson, Chilipeds, Antennules, Antennae |
| Crayfish Respiration | 2 sets of gills to take in/release gases, gill chambers to allow water to gils. Use swimmerets+maxillae to circulate water. |
| Crayfish Circulation | Heart rests in pericardial sinus (cavity), blood falls into sternal sinus, passes gills (exchange gas) and green gland (cleans), back to pericardial sinus |
| Crustacean repair | Regeneration |
| Crayfish Digestion | Scavenger: uses mandibles to break, esophagus, stomach's anterior region grinds, posterior sorts to digestive glands or intestine |
| Crayfish Nervous System | 2 ganglia, compound eyes, antennules/antennae, bristles all over, statocyst |
| Class Arachnida Characteristics | 1. 4 pairs of walking legs 2. Cephalothorax 3. 4 pairs of simple eyes 4. No antennae 5. Respiration through book lungs |
| What is a spiracle? | Slit in a Arachnid's abdomen that allows air through |
| Class Chilopoda | Centipedes--poisonous, 1 leg per segment |
| Class Diplopoda | Millipedes--docile, 2 legs per segment |
| Which class is the largest? | Class Insecta |
| Class Insecta Characteristics | 3 pairs of walking/jumping legs, usually have wings at some stage, 1 pair of antennae, 3 segments: head, thorax, abdomen |
| Types of Wings | Membranous: thin, transparent, network of veins. Scaled: delecately scaled. Leather-like: appear like exoskeleton. Horny: tougher than leather-like and cover whole insect |
| Insect Respiration | No respiratory system, instead have interconnecting tracheas. C |
| Insect Circulation | Relieves of waste (through Malpighian tubules) and delivers food |
| Insect Eyes | Simple (see light) and compound (vision) |
| Insect Feeding | Usually mandible, have gastic ceca make enzymes |
| Order Lepidotra contains... | ...Butterflies and Moths |
| Order Hymenoptera contains... | ...Ants, Bees, and Wasps |
| Order Coleoptera contains... | ...Beetles |
| Order Diptera contains... | ...Flies, Gnats, and Mosquitoes |
| Oder Orthoptera contains... | ...Grasshoppers and Crickets |
| Wings in Order Lepidoptera | Scaled |
| Differences between moth and butterfly | Butterfly's antennae straight, knobbed. Moth's antennae feathery. Butteryfly's body slimmer. Moth's body fatter. Butterfly's resting wings held vertically. Moth's held horizontally. |
| What chemical is used in mothballs? | Napthalene |
| Wings in Order Hymenoptera | Membranous |
| Order Hymenoptera Characteristics | "Social insects" usually have stingers |
| 3 Types of Bees | Queen (reproductive female), worker (non-reproductive female), drone (male) |
| What kind of ants have wings? | Only reproductive |
| Wings in Order Coleoptera | Horny |
| What order is the largest (in the animal kingdom)? | Order Coleoptera |
| Order Coleoptera in Greek | "Sheath Wing" |
| Wings in Order Diptera | Membranous |
| Defens in Order Diptera | Quick escape |
| Wings in Order Orthoptera | Leather-like |
| What is stridulation? | (Order Orthoptera) chirping |
