E N D
Animals • heterotrophs • multicellular • lack cell walls • move from place to place • most reproduce _________ • characteristic pattern of ___________ • possess unique tissues
Symmetry-embryonic layers • lack of symmetry: • Sponges • Radial : • body arranged around a central axis • cnidarians • _____ embryonic layers • outerectoderm= epidermis • inner endoderm= gastrodermis • bilateral: • body has left and right mirror images • _____________ • ____ embryonic layers • Ectoderm= epidermis • Endoderm=gastrodermis • Mesoderm= skeleton, muscles
Body Cavity • Improves the animal body design: • Circulation: fluids that move • Movement: fluid makes the animal’s body rigid permitting resistance to muscle contraction • organ function: organs function without being deformed by surrounding muscles • Bilateral animals: • Acoelomate: no cavity • Pseudocoelomate: cavitybetween mesoderm- endoderm • Coelomate: cavity within the mesoderm
Segmentation • building of a body from a ________ of similar segments • a small change produces a new kind of segment with a different __________
Embrynic development • cell divisions of the fertilized egg: • Compact ball of cells: __________ • hollow ball of cells: _______ • Indentation of the blastula: blastopore= opening to the outside • protostomes, mouth develops from the blastopore • deuterostomes, anus develops from the blastopore, mouth from other part of the blastula
Sponges • Porifera • lack tissue/organs • masses of specialized cells embedded in a gel-like matrix • perforated by tiny holes • flagellated cells line the body cavity and draw water in through the pores: ______________
Cnidaria • Ex: jellyfish, hydra, corals, sea anemones • radial symmetry • extracellular digestion: digestion outside of cells in a gut cavity • ___________: capture their prey with tentacles • 2 basic body forms • Medusae: free-floating • Polyps: sessile Jellyfish Sea anenome
Flat worm • platyhelminthes • simplest bilateral animals • lack internal cavity • digestive cavity only has one opening: cannot _________________________ • lack circulatory system, thin-bodies= diffusion • Reproduction: • hermaphroditic • asexual regeneration
Round worms • Nematoda • hydrostatic skeleton: muscles work against the fluid • unsegmented worms • cylindrical body • Ex: • genetic and development studies: Caenorhabditis elegans • parasites: • Trichinella:trichinosis= consuming undercooked pork • Heartworm (dogs) • Ascaris lumbricoides: intestines
Hollow worms: annelids • Ex: Earthworm, leeches • A tube __________________ • repeated segments, excretory and locomotor organs are repeated • Specialized anterior segments contain sensory organs and brain • circulatory and nervous system
Mollusks • _________ (with real cavitites) • without segmented bodies • basic body design • foot: muscular structure • central visceral mass: body’s organs • mantle: surrounds the visceral mass • radula, arasping tongue-like organ • ________ formed (clams, oysters) when foreign objects are lodged between mantle-inner shell, the mantle coats the foreign object with layer upon layer of shell material to reduce irritation
Gastropods: snail • foot to crawl, mantle for protection • __________________ • Bivalves: clam • two-part shell with a hinge • filter-feed by drawing water into their shell • Cephalopods: octopus • modified mantle cavity that permits ____________ • shell is reduced or absent
Arthropods • Biggest group, most successful! • _____________: • surrounds body for protection • and keeps water in • Molt • ___________ symmetry • Complex organs system! sensory, respiratory, social behavior • divisions: crustacean, millipede (and centipede), arachnids, insects
Echinoderms • first deuterostomes • spiny skin=endoskeleton • Larva is __________but adult ______ • water vascular system: fluid-filled canals that extend into numerous hollow tube-feet for locomotion
Chordates • Deuterostome: coelomates • large animals • ________, flexible rod beneath the nerve cord in the early embryo • _______, dorsal hollow nerve cord • postanal tail, a tail that extends beyond the anus, at least during embryonic development • Vertebrates • backbone (series of hollow bones) that replaces the notochord • Head: skull and brain
Fish • Gills, to extract dissolved oxygen ________ • vertebral column, skeleton made of either bone or cartilage • single-loop blood _________ , blood is pumped from the heart to the gills, to the body, and then back to the heart • Types:
Chondrichthyes • Ex: sharks and rays • first jawed fishes • flexible, cartilaginous skeleton • Bony fish • internal skeleton of bone • _____ ______, gas-filled sac to regulate buoyant density • most diverse of all vertebrates
Amphibians • direct descendant of fishes • Ex: Frogs, Salamanders • Moist skin for __________ • Legs • Lungs and cutaneous respiration • pulmonary veins, returns oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart for repumping • partially _______ heart, helps to prevent oxygenated blood deoxygenated blood
Reptiles • Ex: Turtles, lizards, snakes, crocodile, alligators • amniotic egg: watertight eggs protected from drying out with food source (yolk) comprised of four layers of membranes • Chorion: O2 to enter but not the exit of H2O • yolk sac:connects to the gut of the embryo and delivers food • Allantois:accumulates wastes from the embryo • Amnion: fluid-filled • dry skin to prevent ________ ________
Birds • evolved from bipedal dinosaurs • lack teeth • vestigial tails • _________ eggs • reptilian scales on their feet and lower legs • ____________ lightweight and adapted for flight • flight skeleton is firm for attaching flight muscles, the bones are thin and hollow
