Proifera ex. sponges Filter Feeders -digests food with collar cells (use flagellum) pore bearing no nerves or mussels Always sessiel
Cnidaria ex hydra, jelly fish, coral Nerve Net-Interconnected 1 opening digestive system tenticles with stinging cells 2 body forms -medusa -polyp radial symmetry
Platyhelminthes ex. Planaria, tape worms, fluke flat worms 1 digestive opening most primitive with cephalization (gathering of nerve cells in the head) -muscular with "right action" (able to flip itself) can be free living (planaria) or parcitic (tape worm)
Nematoda (Aschelminthes) round worms ex nematode, pinworm, hook worm Famous for the Anus, first phylum with 2 opening digestive system nerve ring with brain some are freel iving, most are paracitic
Annelida Segmented worms ex earth worm, leach Tube with a tube -skins and mussel -digestive tract 2 opening digestive system skin used as a respiratory organ so must be moist close circulatory system-5 aortic arches (hearts) -Dorsal and ventral blood vessels
annelida cont. --Capilaries Nerves ventiral nerve cord excretion nephridia (pari/segmented) reproduce hermaphrodites
Mollusca soft bodies 0,1,2 shells called valves made of calcium muscular foot or tentacles mantel -secreates shell (pearls) -can be used as a "lung" "if have no gills" most have an open circulatory system (blood touches organs)
Echinodermata spiny skin ex starfish, sand dollar, sea cucumber, sea urchin pentaradial (5) symmetry Water vascular system -H2O filled canals Tube feet -locomotion -feeding -gas exchange Feeds off bivalves -use tube feet to open
Echinodermata -turns stomach inside out & puts in bivalve -pulls it vack into finish digestion regenerates
Arthropoda ex insects, crustations, aracnics, millipides, centipides exockeletons -chitin -must mot when segmented bodies -head, thorax, abdemen -head and thorax = cephalothorax paired jointed appendages -antenna, antennule-senses, chilapeds- feeding
Arthropoda cont. ,swimmiretts -pushes H2O over gill -reproduction M- direct sperm F-hold fertilized eggs, walking legs open circualtory system (gillis) tubeular heart Hemocyanin- copper blue
Chrodata dorsal nerve chord during development -notochord -gill slits
