Animals Test

Are Porifera marine? Almost entirely
What is the Body symmetry an level of organization of Porifera? They are asymmetrical, and their level of organization is cells
How do Porifera feed? They filter feed
What is filter feeding? It's when while consuming, you take the good in, and dirty substances out
What type of circulation do Porifera have? water circulation
What is the nervous system/skeletal system for Porifera? Porifera have no nervous system; they have a skeletal system of spicules
How do Porifera reproduce? They reproduce asexually and some produce sexually
How do Porifera reproduce asexually? By budding and fragmentation
What type of Porifera tend to produce sexually? hermaphrodite
How do Porifera move? They are motile
How are Porifera larvae motile? free swimming
Are Porifera adults motile? Yes but it is very hard to tell
What are common names and examples of Cnidaria? (4) jellyfish, sea anemone, corals, stinging cell animals
What is the Body symmetry and level of organization of Cnidaria? They have a radial body symmetry; polyp and medusa body type; have a tissue level of organization
How do Cnidarians excrete? With tentacles and stinging cells
What type of circulation do Cnidaria have? water circulation
What is the nervous system Cnidaria? They have a nerve net but no brain
How do Cnidaria reproduce? They reproduce sexually and asexually (budding)
What type of Cnidaria tend to produce sexually? hermaphrodite
What is the movement of Cnidaria? mostly motile
What are common names and examples of Platyhelminthes? (4) planaria, flukes, tapeworms, flatworms
What is the Body symmetry and level of organization of platyhelminthes? Bilateral body symmetry; organ level of organization
How do Platyhelminthes digestive their food? with a digestive tube
How are food digested outside of the non-parasitic mouths for platyhelminthes? Enzymes begin digesting food
How about for parasite mouths? Parasites use hooks to keep the worm attached to the host
What is the nervous system in Platyhelminthes? Some have nerve nets and have the beginnings of a central nervous system
What is sephalization? collection of nerve endings in a body
How do platyhelminthes reproduce? Sexually and asexually (regeneration)
