Arth. Body Plan

Entomology

QuestionAnswer
Invertebrate Classification: 1. Number of cells -Diploid organisms that develop from a bastula (metazoans) -Unicellular or acellular
Invertebrate Classification: 2. Symmetry (bilateral symmetry. and radial symmetry.) Bilateral symmetry: -Left and right sides that are mirrors -High correlation with cephalization -Concentration of nervous and sensory tissues and organs at one end of an organism Radial symmetry: -Symmetry around a central axis
Invertebrate Classification: 3. Developmental pattern Germ layers: -Group of cells that behave as a functional unit during embryonic development -Give rise to distinctly different tissues and/or organs in adult
Some distinguishing characteristics of the phylum Arthropoda include: All arthropods exhibit bilateral symmetry, with the left side being a mirror image of the right side All arthropods possess a hardened exoskeleton made of chitin
Some distinguishing characteristics of the phylum Arthropoda include con.: All arthropods have a segmented body plan All arthropods have jointed appendages (Arthropoda = jointed; foot, leg)
Arthropoda Body Plan includes: -Bilateral Symmetry Tagmosis -External Segmentation Tagmata -Exoskeleton Chitin -Jointed Appendages -Hemocoel -Ventral nerve cord and dorsal brain -Lack of circular muscles
Tagmosis: Segments specialized for different functions
Metamerism: Have external body segments with similar structures
Tagmata: Specialized body regions
Primitive arthropods have? Less specialized body segmentation
Complex arthropods have? Segments that become more specialized
Modifications can occur within these segments? Head – posses specialized mouthparts for feeding and sensory appendages. Thorax – posses specialized appendages for locomotion. Abdomen – can bear additional appendages; specialized for reproduction and digestion.
Exoskeleton: Hardened exterior skeleton composed of chitin
