QuestionAnswer
General Features of Animals multicellular heterotrops no cell walls active movement (in most) sexual reproduction similar embryonic development across taxa unique tissues (except sponges)
Parazoa (without symmetry) cells aggregates with specialization in function; lack symmetry, tissues and organs
Eumetazoa (with symmetry) all have embryonic layers that from into tissues
Diploblastic 2 tissue types: ectoderm and endoderm
Triploblastic 3 tissue types: ecto, meso and endo
Segmentation basic body 'compartments'
Advantages to segmentation redundant systems locomotion more effient
Three types of body cavities acoelomate, pseduocoelomate, and coelomate
Acoelomate sac like, no body cavity
Pseudocoelomate tube within a tube
Coelomate true body cavity
Protostomes predetermined tissues, blastopore becomes mouth and anus, mesoderm splits and forms coelom
Deutrostomes tissues indeterminate, blastopore becomes anus and second pore becomes mouth. coelom arises from invagination of cells
Phylum Porifera Aggregate cells, gelatenous matrix: can push through mesh and they disassociate (some can reassociate) no symmetry no tissue or organs
Feeing in Porifera food comes in through the osculum
Choanocytes flagellated cells that line canals, trap food and filter, create current then phagocytize food
Amobocytes digest food in the vacuole particles are moved to
Support structure of Porifera saclike, epidermis for protection, epithelial wall, water supports sponges
Spicules Calcium carbonate or silica that strengthen bodies located within mesophyl
Reproduction in Porifera sperm is released out osculum sucked though incurrent canal captured by choanocytes transported to mesophyl where eggs are fertilized embryo expelled through osculum
Choanocytes (in reproduction) can become sperm or eggs
Eumetazoans (Cnidaria and Ctenophora) radial symmetry gastrovascular cavity with single opening most have tentacles distinct tissues but NO ORGANS true tissues DIPLOBLASTIC simplest animals to posses nerves
Cnidaria gastrovascular cavity coelom-like, blind
Tentacles used to capture prety
Nematocytes stinging cells on tentacles; use water pressure have several triggers
Triggers for nematocytes mechanical, chemical and vibration
Mesoglea jelly between gastrodermis and epidermis
Polyp sessile structure can extend outward to collect food
Medussa free swimming mouth and tentacles are underneath
Reproduction in Cnidaria gametes fertilized externally; poly becomes medusa (asexually) medusa is usually the sexual structure budding of polyp is done asexually
Adaptations of Cnidaria nervous system communication between neurons (both directions) nerve net is concentrated around the mouth
Major Classe in Cnidaria Hydrazoa, Scyphozoa, sea anemones and corals
Major Classes of Ctenophora comb jellies (no nematocytes) use cilia for movement
Feature of Acoelomates triploblastic lack body cavity flat bodes, limited mobility limited complexity most monoecious
Feeding in Acoelomates phyarynx sucks food in nutrients diffuse blind gastrovascular cavity intestinal diverticulum
Intestinal diverticulum increase surface area which increases nutrient absorption

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
