Invertebrates: Triploblastics, Platyhelminthes

QuestionAnswer
Triploblastic Organisms with three embryonic germ layers: Endoderm, Mesoderm, Ectoderm.
Acoelomates Triploblastic organisms with no coelomic cavity (only platyhelminthes)
Coelomates Triploblastic organisms with a coelomic cavity. Among invertebrates its Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca and Echinodermata.
Coelom Secondary body cavity (secondary to the gastric cavity) lined with mesodermal cells.
Protostomes The blastopore becomes the organism's mouth, the anus opens elsewhere. Their cellular division in embryonic development is spiral and deterministic.
Deuterostomes The blastopore closes, the mouth opens elsewhere and the anus opens next to the original blastopore opening. Embryonic cellular division is radial, cleavage is indeterminate.
Spiral cleavage (In protostomes) The first two divisions produce 4 equal long cells, the third is closer to the top producing little cells and big cells.
Radial cleavage (In deuterostomes) the first two divsions produce 4 equal long cells, the third is horizontal across the middle producing 8 equal cells etc.
Schizocoelom Coelom formation in protostomes where cells designated mesoderm migrate into the blastocoel where they form coelomic sacs
Enterocoelom Coelom formation in deuterostomes where the endoderm sinks in producing mesodermal pouches that detach forming the coelomic sacs.
Coelomic sacs Secondary body cavity--one on each side of the gastric cavity result from each type of coelomic production. They are lined with mesoderm.
Determinate cleavage Present in protostomes--by the second division of the cells, removal of one cell results in destruction of the embryo.
Indeterminate cleavae Present in deuterostomes--removal of a blastomere does not affect the final product.
Acoelomata Example-platyhelminthes: There is no coelomic cavity, the space between the ectoderm and endoderm is stuffed with mesodermal cells.
Pseudocoelomata Example: Annelida--The coelom is lined on one side with mesoderm and on the inside by endoderm.
Coelomata Example: starting with segmented worms, then everyone. When the two coelomic sacs meet they form a dorsal septum and a ventral septum. The coelom is fully surrounded by mesodermal cells.
Which tissues are formed by ectoderm? Epithelial cells, nerve/sensory cells, cells that line the two openings of the digestive system.
Which tissues are formed by mesoderm? All of the organs and tissues in the body including muscles and reproductive organs.
Primary purpose of the coelomic cavity? It serves as the reproductive cavity.
Which tissues are formed by endoderm? Most of the cells that line the digestive system as well as the glands and organs of the digestive system.
Significance of the development of mesoderm They developed muscles allowing for development of locomotion mechanisms which then required increased sensory development--cephalization.
Cephalization Development of a head/brain where the sensory organs are concentrated and nerve control system is to give the moving animal a direction.
Result of an increase in body mass Surface area:Body volume ration is much higher and now they need a circulatory system to get stuff everywhere. Diffusion distance is too large to be efficient.
Bilateral symmetry Resulted from cephalization which gave the organisms a front and a back.
Platyhelminthes Phylum of flat worms (triploblastic acoelomata). There are three classes Turbellaria are free swimming and Trematoda and Cestoda are parasitic. Most are hermaphroditic.
Turbellaria םיסיר יעלות Free swimming (non parasitic) class of platyhelminthes
Trematoda תוקלע One of the parasitic classes of platyhelminthes
Cestoda םירושרש One of the parasitic classes of platyhelminthes.
Bilharzia A type of flatworm in the class trematoda that causes disease in humans from its parasitic life cycle.
Turbellaria characteristics Relatively ancient class (550 million years old) they live in marine, freshwater and damp land environments. There are about 3000 species making up about 15% of the flat worms.
Dugesia (also called planaria) A species of turbellaria with doro-ventrally flat bodies, a mouth that opens at the rear of the body, an extendable pharynx, they have two simple eye spots.
Dugesia locomotion They have muscle fibers (mesodermal origin) that allow them to move.
Turbellaria gastrovascular system The oral opening leads to the pharynx that widens as it continues splitting into all the parts of the body
Turbellaria pharynx structure It is a muscle that can be extended outwards to catch prey. Part of it is ectodermal.
Tricladida Intestinal pattern in turbellaria with three main branches
Polycladida Intestinal pattern in turbellaria with numerous branching structures throughout the body.
Eating patterns of turbellaria They are mostly predatorial eating small invertebrates they hunt with the help of chemoreceptors.
Taxonomic division of the 12 orders of turbellaria It's based on the structure of the gastrovascular system.
Parenchyma Also called mesenchyma is the spongy mesodermal tissue found between the body wall and the digestive tract in acoelomata. It is filled with internal organs and muscles.
Dorso-ventral muscles in turbellaria Muscles that go from the top to the bottom of the flatworms (there are also peripheral muscles).
Musculature in turbellaria Longitudinal, circular, dorsal/ventral muscles allow for a variety of motion throughout the body.
Protonephridia Organ used for osmoregulation and waste removal in turbellaria and other organisms.
Ganglion A small localized nerve center or brain that controls bodily function.
Turbellaria movement They are very flexible and muscular. They have mucous-secreting glands in their mesoderm that secrete mucous on their surface allowing them to slide along surfaces. They can also push/pull to move.
Rhabdites Column like structures that operate in defense of the organism.
