Question
Answer
show -Multicellular eukaryotic heterotrophs that ingest their food. -Most animals, and only animals, have Hox genes that regulate the development of body form -Nervous tissue and muscle tissue are unique, defining characteristics of animals  
🗑
Describe the stages of animal embryonic development. What is cleavage? Gastrulation?   show
🗑
What factors are hypothesized to have driven animal evolution and diversification in the Cambrian explosion?   show
🗑
show Radial symmetry • A body that can be divided in mirror- image halves by any plane through its central axis Bilateral symmetry • Only one plane can divide the animal into mirror-image halves >Cephalization, the development of a head  
🗑
show -Ectoderm produces the covering of the animal – Endoderm generates the digestive tract – Mesoderm gives rise to the tissues in between  
🗑
What is the difference between an acoelomate, pseudocoelomate and coelomate? What are some advantages of having a body cavity?   show
🗑
How does protostome development differ from deuterostome development?   show
🗑
show Eumetazoa is a clade with true tissues. Metazoa doesn't  
🗑
Are the animals in the phylum diploblastic or triploblastic?   show
🗑
Do the animals have a body cavity?   show
🗑
What type of symmetry?   show
🗑
show  
🗑
show Each individual functions as both male and female (ex: earthworms)  
🗑
What is parthenogenesis?   show
🗑
show a uni-directional digestive tube with a separate mouth and anus (ex: rotifera and nematoda)  
🗑
show -made of layers of protein and the polysaccharide chitin -A hard encasement on the surface of an animal, such as the shell of a mollusc or the cuticle of an arthropod, that provides protection and points of attachment for muscles.  
🗑
show  
🗑
show -The notochord -The dorsal, hollow nerve cord -Pharyngeal Slits or Clefts -Muscular, Post-Anal Tail  
🗑
show -craniates (brain) -vertebrates (backbone) -gnathistomes (jaws) -osteocythans (lungs) -lobe fins (fins) -tetrapods (4 limbs) -amniotes (amniotic eggs)  
🗑
show Four limbs and feet with digits • Ears for detecting airborne sounds EBMARM  
🗑
show -Amphibians are tetrapods that are terrestrial, but still largely rely on water to survive. -Reptiles are amniotes are tetrapods with special adaptations that reduce dependence on water  
🗑
What adaptations in birds allow for flight?   show
🗑
What are the three types of mammals and how do they differ?   show
🗑
show -eutharians, tetrapods, chordates  
🗑
show -external heat is main source of body heat -maintain body heat through metabolism  
🗑
What are the benefit and costs of each?   show
🗑
show Individually, an action carried out by muscles or glands undcr con- trol of the nervous system in response to a stimulus: collectively, the sum of an animal"s responses to external and internal stimuli.  
🗑
What do proximate questions ask about animal behavior?   show
🗑
What do ultimate questions ask about animal behavior?   show
🗑
show are sequences of unlearned acts that are unchangeable and when begun, are usually carried to cpmpletion.  
🗑
What is the difference between taxis and kinesis?   show
🗑
What are behavioral rhythms?   show
🗑
What is the difference between a signal and communication?   show
🗑
show Habitutation:is the loss of responsiveness to stimuli that convey no new information. Imprinting: also use their memory of landmarks to navigate Spatial learning Associative: is when an animal learns to associate one feature with another.  
🗑
show -since birth  
🗑
show -Two individualshaveanexclusivemating relationship for an extended period of time -Any male and female will mate and no strong pair bonds or lasting relationships are formed. -A single individual concurrently maintains relationships with multiple mates  
🗑
What are the two types of polygamy?   show
🗑
show  
🗑
show -monogamist  
🗑
show -polygamist  
🗑
show -Marked differences between the secondary sex characteristics of males and females  
🗑
Which mating systems lead to the evolution of sexual dimorphism?   show
🗑
show -Precocial young are relatively mature and mobile from the moment of birth or hatching. -Altricial young are relatively helpless at birth or hatching and require a long duration of parental care.  
🗑
What is altruistic behavior?   show
🗑
show -kin selection. Since an individual shares genes with close family members, natural selection could favor behaviors that enhance the reproductive success of relatives.  
🗑
show -has true tissues  
🗑
Metazoa   show
🗑
Lophotrcochozoa   show
🗑
show is a clade of Bilaterians that are covered by a tough coat called a cuticle. As these animals grow, the cuticle is molted through a process called ecdysis. The two major phyla in this clade are Nematoda and Arthropoda.  
🗑
show Echinoderms are in this clade with phylum Chordata. Echinoderms are triploblastic, coelomate and possess bilateral symmetry in their larval stage and fivefold symmetry in their adult stage.
