A

about 80,000 species, mostly marine but many freshwater/terrestrial, slow-moving, relatively sedentary, shell as self-defense, cephalized head

Q

torsion process

A

changing of the position of body parts during development; go from a linear gut with gills in the back to a loopy gut with anus and gills near the mouth

pros of torsion

A

gills are anterior and can sample water, entire body can be pulled within shell

17
Q

class of Phylum Mollusca known as Chitons

A

class Polyplacophora

18
Q

general characters of class Polyplacophora

A

about 1000 extant species, generally live in rocky intertidal zones, radula reinforced with iron

19
Q

structure of class Polyplacophora

A

dorsal shell made of 7-8 separate plates surrounded by girdle of mantle, gills surround the foot

20
Q

class of Phylum Mollusca that includes mussels, clams, oysters, and scallops

A

class Bivalvia

21
Q

general characters of Bivalves

A

about 9000 species, mostly marine, have lost cephalization and the radula, filter feeders

22
Q

method by which Bivalves combine feeding with breathing

A

suck water in through incurrent siphon and over gills, which extract oxygen and capture food particles on layer of mucus before cilia move food towards labial palps, which then direct food into the mouth

23
Q

organ in Bivalvia used primarily for digging

A

foot

24
Q

muscles in Bivalvia that contract to close the shell

A

adductor muscles

25
Q

class of Phylum Mollusca that includes, octopuses, squids, cuttlefish, and nautiluses

A

class Cephalopoda

26
Q

general characters of class Cephalopoda

A

all very intelligent marine predators, strong beaklike jaws, mantle used for jet propulsion, many have long tentacles/arms with suckers

27
Q

only species of class Cephalopoda with an external shell

A

nautiluses

28
Q

species of class Cephalopoda where the shell rests under the mantle

A

cuttlefish

29
Q

species of class Cephalopoda where the shell is a thin strip called the “pen”

A

squids

30
Q

species of class Cephalopoda that has lost the shell entirely

A

octopuses

31
Q

structure of circulatory system in class Cephalopoda

A

two branchial hearts pump deoxygenated blood to gills, systemic heart pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body

32
Q

reproductive process of class Cephalopoda

A

separate sexes, no larva stage (direct development), very little parental care (except octopuses)

33
Q

Phylum united by the trait of a molting cuticle

A

Phylum Ecdysozoa

34
Q

Phylum of Ecdysozoa known as horsehair worms

A

Phylum Nematomorpha

35
Q

general characters of phylum Nematomorpha

A

about 320 species, very long and thin, adults are free-living but all juveniles parasitize arthropods (emerge once in water)

36
Q

Nematomorpha do/don’t have sexual separation

A

do

37
Q

Phylum of Ecdysozoa known as roundworms

A

Phylum Nematoda

38
Q

general characters of Phylum Nematoda

A

estimated 1,000,000 species, about half are parasitic, live in every habitat on earth, account for 80% of individual animals on earth

39
Q

structure of Nematodes

A

unsegmented, pseudocoelomate, generally small, covered in noncellular cuticle made from collagen, longitudinal muscles, simple morphology (mouth, pharynx, intestine, anus, reproductive organs), anterior nerve ring

40
Q

free-living Nematodes generally go through ____ molts before adulthood

A

four

41
Q

“model” organism of Nematoda

A

C. elegans
