Animalia

QuestionAnswer
Parazoa Only sponges. Cells are independent enough to be seperated from the whole. Cells are not permanently specialized.
Metozoa All other animals. highly specialized cells, no part can survive without the whole organism
Animal development Fertilization --> zygote. Cleavages form. Blastula. Gastrula. Embryo.
Cleavages first cell divisions of zygote
Blastula small hollow ball of cells; divide and push into center
Endoderm differentiates into digestive tract
Ectoderm Epidermis, around animal
Mesoderm Circulatory, skeletal, reproductive systems
Asymmetrical body symmetry organisms that lack symmetry
Spherical body symmetry organisms can be divided into equal halves in any direction through central point
Radial body symmetry organism can be divided into equal halves
Bilateral body symmetry organism can be divided into equal halves ONLY along 1 plane
Porifera & Cnidaria - Epidermis Outer layer- flattened cells. POROCYTES = penetrate epidermis, cylindrical, permit water to enter central cavity. Open and close.
Porifera & Cnidaria - Mesenchyme aka mesophyl Contain spiked structures (spicules). Skeletal support, protection
Porifera & Cnidaria - Collar cells Flagellated, create current to draw water through pores and out of the top opening (OSCULUM) Withdraws food from water. Food phagocytosed (absorbed) by Choanocytes
Porifera & Cnidaria - Amoebocytes More though mesenchyme via pseudopods. Carry food particles. Make spicules. Can differentiate into other types of cells.
2 body forms of Porifera & Cnidaria Medusa (bell shaped, free swimming) and Polyp (vase shaped, sessile (non-moving), mouths facing up.
3 types of molluscs Gastropoda, Pelecypoda, Cephalopoda
Class Gastropoda snails, slugs
Class Pelecypoda bivalves, abalone
Class Cephalopoda squids, octopi
Radula hard, teeth-like projections that scrape food in Gastropoda
Muscular foot Aid in movement in Gastropoda and Pelecypoda
Gills gas exchange in Gastropoda and Pelecypoda
Bivalves 2 half shells in Pelecypoda
siphons (incurrent, excurrent) circulates water in Cephalopoda
sense organs respont to light, chemicals, touch in Cephalopoda and Pelecypoda
nephridium removes excess water and wastes in Pelecypoda
palp extract nutrients in Pelecypoda
Arms contain suction disks in Cephalopoda
Broadcast mating release of sex cells in the environment for fertilization. Useful adaptation because it is fast and it can produce alot of offspring
Phylum Echinodermata sea stars, sand dollars. spiky skin, tube feet, endoskeleton, nervous system
Phylum Arthropoda breaks down to Subphylum Chelicerata + Subphylum Mandibulata
Subphylum Chelicerata Class Arachnida
Subphylum Mandibulata Class Crustacea, Class Insecta, Class Diplopoda & Chilopoda
Exoskeleton support and protection, made of chitin. All Arthropoda's have this.
Jointed appendages Ex. legs. Specialized segmented body. All Arthopoda's have this
Nervous system Cephalization (development of nervous system. Head containing brain. All Arthopoda's have this
Open circulation with dorsal heart self explanatory. All Arthopoda's have this
Cephalothorax Head and body sections with legs (Chelicerates have this)
Abdomen Posterior segment with internal organs. (Spiders have silk glands in abdomen. Release silk through spinnerets.) Chelicerates, Arachnida, and Insecta have this
4 pairs of legs for walking. Chelicerates have this
Chelicera Front appendages for feeding. Chelicerates have this
Pedipalps Front appendages for sensory functions. Chelicerates have this
Chelicerae Modified as fangs for poisoning prey. Arachnida have this
Eight simple eyes senses light and dark. Arachnida have this
Vibration detectors in legs. Arachnida have this
Mandibles Jaws. Subphylum Mandibulata have this
Maxillae Appendages to pass food to mandibles. Subphylum Mandibulata have this
Antennae sense organs. Subphylum Mandibulata, class Insecta
3 or more pairs of legs walking. Subphylum Mandibulata have this, class Insecta
2 pairs of wings to fly. Class Insecta
Endoskeleton Internal skeleton (not exposed)
Exoskeleton Outside skeleton. (good for protection + support)
Chilopods Centipedes. "100 feet", carnivorous, unfused segments, 1 pair of legs per segment
Diplopoda Milipedes "1000 feet", fused segments, 2 pairs of legs per segment
Humans interacting with insects bees (honey), insects pollinate our flowers, they are very important in the food web
Complete metamorphosis Butterflies and ants. Egg --> Larva --> Pupa --> Adult. (Larva is specialized for eating, do not look like adult. Pupa: resting
Incomplete metamorphosis Grasshoppers and aphids. Egg --> Nymph --> Adult. Nyphm = immature adult - no wings/gonads
Feeding adaptations in insects Mosquitoes: mouthparts are hollow tubes for blood sucking. Butterflies: mouthparts are coiled into long tube to reach nectar deep within flowers
Appearance adaptations in insects Camouflage, warning coloration, mimicry
Camouflage to go unnotice by predators
Warning Coloration predators learn to avoid poisonous insects
Mimicry Insect colors itself to look like a poisonous insect in order to evade predation
Reproductive adaptations in insects Produce pheromones: chemicals released by an animal that affects the behaviour of others in the same species
Social insects living in a society: ants, termites, bees
3 basic characteristics of Vertebrata Notochord, Hollow dorsal, Gill slits. *Must lose one or more of these as they mature into adults
Notochord in Vertebrata strong, flexible, rod-like structure located near dorsal surface. In adults, can be replaced by back bone
Hollow Dorsal in Vertebrata Nerve cord. Develops into brain and spinal cord
Gill Slits in Vertebrata at some point in life. Paired openings in the Pharynx
Chordates (from simple --> complex) Subphylum Urochordate, Subphylum Cephalochordata, Subphylum Vertebrata
Subphylum Urochordate Marine & sometimes sessile. Filter feeders. Usually loses notochord & dorsal nerve cord. Contains few organisms
Subphylum Cephalochordata "Chordate with a head" Shallow sea, coastal organisms. Intermediate between urochordate nad vertebrates. Contains few organisms.
Subphylum Vertebrata Vertebrae: large # of bones protecting nerve cord. Contains many organisms
Axial skeleton Skull, Vertebrae,
Appendicular skeleton Rib cage, Pectoral girdle, Pelvic girdle
Pectoral girdle where bones for Anterior body are attached
Pelvic girdle where bones for Posterior body are attached
Evolutionary trends in vertebrae development Adaptations leading to survival on land, Development of complex heart, Increase in cephalization (head), Increase in size and complexity of brain
Characteristics that classify animals into the same class Large brain with convolutions (folds on the surface of the brain to increase surface area), Endothermic (warm blood), 4 chambered heart, Lungs with diaphragm, Hair, Uterus (Maternal care)
Glands that are unique to Mammalia Mammary glands (all animals): produce milk to nourish young, Sweat glands, Sebaceous glands (lubricate hair + skin), Scent glands: communication between mammals
