QuestionAnswer
What kingdom are invertebrates a part of? animalia
Invertebrates are a group of ________ phyla
How many phylums are invertebrates? over 30
How many animals are invertebrates? 95%
Phylum platyhelminthes? take in food and release waste from same opening, acoelomate, lack circulatory system, sexual/asexual, some parasitic
what are acoelomates? lack a body cavity
examples of platyhelminthes? tapeworms, blood flukes
describe tapeworms eggs ingested, hatch and attach to intestines (w/ scolex)
how are segments (proglottids) added in tapeworms? feed off of sewage in intestines
describe blood flukes contaminated freshwater (w/snails), larvae enter skin, lay eggs in blood stream, cause inflammation, scarring, anemia
Phylum nematoda? roundworms surrounded by cuticle (protection), contain pseudocoelom, some are decomposers/eat microorganisms/are parasites, non-segmented
what is a pseudocoelom? false body cavity
2 examples of nematoda? pinworms, hook worms
pinworms? contaminate food, clothing, fingernails, live in anus, lay eggs on skin, cause itchiness, most common worm infection in U.S.
hookworms? contaminated soil, enters body though bare feet/hands or swallowing soil, attaches to small intestine and sucks blood, causes anemia/abdominal pain/protein deficiency
what is elephantiasis? filarial worms enters through mosquito bites
Phylum Annelida? earthworms/leeches, mulitple segments with nephridia/heart/ganglia, coelomates, terrestrial/marine/aquatic
what is nephridia? gets rid of waste
Phylum mollusca? (HINT: know defintions!) contains visceral mass (contains organs), mantle (produces shell), radula (helps obtain food), ctenidia (gills in mantle), trocophore larvae, can indicate pollution
examples of mollusca? snails, clams, octopus
Phylum Porifera: Sponges? filter feeders, choanocytes and spicules, asex. and sexual, chemical defenses, pharmaceutical drugs
What are choanocytes? spicules? flagellated cells that bring water to sponge; cells that give sponge strength
Phylum cnidaria? jellyfish/sea anemones/coral, nematocytes, have polyp (asexual) and medusa (sexual) stage, hydrostatic skeleton, no true organs
what are nematocytes? stinging cells
Phylum anthropoda? Largest phylum (insects), open circulatory system, exoskeleton, coelomates, undergo metamorphosis, jointed appendages, 3 segments (head, thorax, abdomen)
Phylum Echinodermata? water-vascular system, release stomach to obtain food, ossicles for protection, starfish and sanddollars
Kingdom Plantae? multicellular, Eukaryotas, autotrophs, asex and sexual, vascular tissue (xylem and phloem), gametphyte and sporophyte genetic changes
Describe sexual rep. in plants gametophyte stage (haploid), sporophyte stage (diploid), plants pollinated and fertilized (produce diploid zygote), sporophyte undergoes meiosis and mitosis to get to gametophyte
what are antheridia and archegonia? male reproductive parts; female rep. parts
Phylum bryophyta? land plants, water for reprod., NO vascular tissue, gametophyte is dominant stage, use spores to reproduce, includes moss/riverwors/hornworts
Gymnosperms? "cone-bearing", needle-like leaves w/ strobilus (cones), pollinated by wind, sexual rep., xylem to transport water and phloem to transport sugar
Angiosperms? flowering, more than 80% of plants, cotyledon/ monocots/eudicots, fruits (ovaries) to carry seeds, reproduce through wind or vectors
what is a cotyledon? monocots? eudicots? seed leaf; 1 seed leaf; 2 seed leaves
Angiosperm reprod.: male parts stamen (anther (store pollen) and filament), pollen tube (formed by pollen after attaching to stigma to carry out fertilization)
Angiosperm reprod.: female parts (carpels) stigma (collects pollen), style (tube pollen sends microsporangia down), ovary (contains embryo), ovule (stores female megasporangia)
Phylum ginkophyta? Ginko "biloba" is the only species left, used to enhance memory
Phylum pteridophyta? seedless vascular plants, ferns w/fronds, leaves w/spores
Phylum chordata? dorsal, hollow nerve cord (connects brain w/organs), notocord (forms spinal column), pharyngeal gill slits, post anal tail, 3 subphylums
Subphylum vertebrata? vertebrae surround spinal column, coelomates, bilateral symmetry, closed circulatory system, complete digestive system, kidneys (excretion), cephalization w/complex nervous system, endo skeleton
Class agnatha? Lampreys (jawless fish), attach to side of fish and feed off blood and tissue, larval stage is several years, can be eaten
Class osteichthyes? bony fish/scales/2-chamber heart, operculum (covers gills, allows breath w/o swimming), swim bladder (buoyancy), osmoregulation
Class chondrichthyes? fish w/cartilage, constantly moving (lack swim bladders and operculum), lateral line system (detect wave movement), nares (detect chemicals), countershading
Class amphibia? tetrapods (born in water, live on land), ectotherms/moist skin, 3 chambered heart (2 atria, 1 ventricle), external fertilization
Class reptilia? ectotherms, 3 chambered heart (2 atria, 1 ventricle), terrestrial, amniotic egg to hold embryo, scales
Class Reptilia: birds? feathers/hollow bones, high metabolism, endotherms, 4 chambered heart, amniotic egg, one-way air flow
Class mammalia? hair/mammary glands/3 middle ear bones, monotremes (egg-laying/oviparous), marsupials, placental, 4 chambered hearts, endotherms
