Bio 111 exam 2 pt 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| cambrian explosion | lots of phyla in Animalia arose through this event |
| choanocytes (in Porifera) | specialized cells found in porifera (synapomorphy of sponges) |
| What is the major feature of Porifera that helps them get thick? | they have an outer layer called the epidermis and the inner cell layer captures food |
| How do porifera make their gametes? | Asexual reproduction |
| what are protostomes (features) | -blastopore becomes mouth -spiral cleavage -determinate cleavage |
| what are deuterstomes (features) | -blastopore becomes anus -radial cleavage -indeterminate cleavage |
| what are diploblastic tissues and organism example | have two germ layers: ectoderm and endoderm. Ex) Cnidaria |
| what are triploblastic tissues and organism example | have three germ layers: endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm. Ex) humans and most animals |
| what is a blastula? | early stage of embryonic development where the cell starts cleaving, then becomes a "hollow ball" of cells |
| what is a gastrula? | happens after the blastula, forms the two germ layers |
| gastrulation | transforming a blastula into a gastrula (gut formation) |
| what two phyla lack a mesoderm? | cnidaria and ctenophora |
| 2 big clades of protostomes (and some similarities) | Lophotrochozans and Ecdysczoa. Both bilaterally symmetrical |
| what are platyhelminthes and features | flatworms. bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic |
| what are mollusca? | phylum that includes snails, clams, etc. 3 main body regions: mantle, foot, visceral mass. |
| what feature does phylum annelida have? | segmentation where they can "add on" to their own body to grow |
| what are nematoda? | phylum of round worms, move by hydrostatic pressure |
| 3 main functions of animal skeletons | 1) protection 2) movement 3) support |
| timeline of insect evolution | 1) origin of hexapods 2) origin of wings 3) origin of wing folding 4) origin of metamorphosis |
| chordata (what are they and features) | major animal phylum includes humans, fish, frogs, etc. Have a notochord (synapomorphy) and dorsal hollow nerve chord and pharyngeal slits |
