  • crabs, cray fish
24
Q

ARTHROPODA Symmetry, cephalisation, embryonic layers, coelom, gut, blood system?

cephalisation- yes, sensory organs (eyes+ antenna) making up simple brain
Embryonic layers- triploblastic
coelom- houses excretory organs
gut- through gut (different parts- specialised mouth)
blood system- open blood system- heamoceal

25
Q

What skeleton in ARTHROPODA?

A

Exoskeleton

26
Q

Role of invertebrates? (5)

  1. pollinating agents (reproduction)
  2. decomposers
  3. Aerators of soil (burrows)
  4. vectors of pest and disease
  5. biological control
