Q

Porifera

A
  • Have no definite shape – asymmetrical;
  • No tissues or organs
  • Colony of specialized cells
  • Immobile
  • Good powers of regeneration (parts or whole body)
    Skeleton of sponging (modified collagen) and spicules (hard crystal material)
  • For example glass sponge

Q

Cnidaria

A
  • Jellyfish, corals, anemones
  • Radial symmetry (can be divided at any point into 2 matching halves)
  • Primitive nerve net but no brain (very primitive/simplistic nervous system)
  • 2-way digestive tract (a single opening that serves as both the mouth and anus)
  • Stinging cells for capturing food.

Q

Platyhelminthes

A

-First animals to exhibit bilateral symmetry (right and left sides are mirror images of one another)
- Have primitive brain
- 3 tissue layers (endoderm, mesoderm, & ectoderm)
- Includes free-living flatworms and parasitic flatworms (tapeworms, flukes)

16
Q

Annelida

A
  • Earthworms, sandworms, leeches
  • Slightly more complex body plan, have many segments (like many rings joined together)
  • Complete one-way digestive system/tract with mouth and anus
  • Have well-developed digestive and circulatory systems (i.e. closed circulatory system - blood is limited to vessels)
17
Q

Mollusca

A
  • SOFT-BODIED ANIMALS
  • Includes: snails, slugs, nudibranchs, chitons, limpets, clams, oysters, squid, octopus, nautilus, etc.
  • Either have no shell, one shell, or two shells
  • Contains a mass of soft flesh that covers the soft body and encloses internal organs
  • Many have hard mouth parts used for feeding (radula in gastropods, beak in cephalopods).
18
Q

Arthropoda

A
  • JOINT-LEGGED ANIMALS
  • Includes: insects, crustaceans, centipedes, millipedes, and arachnids (spiders)
  • exoskeleton made of chitin (polysaccharide)
  • must shed their exoskeletons in order to grow (they can develop a new exoskeleton once larger)
19
Q

Echinodermata

A
  • SPINEY-SKINNED ANIMALS
  • Includes: sea stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, sea cucumbers, and crinoids
  • reverted back to radial symmetry (radial in adults / bilateral in larvae)
  • tube feet and water vascular system (a hydraulic pressure system that help with locomotion, feeding/nutrient cycling, and respiration/gas exchange
  • Most exhibit pentamerism (consisting of 5 parts)
20
Q

how many classes are in the phyla Chordata?

A

there are 5 classes within Chordata

21
Q

VERTEBRATES (CHORDATA) CLASSES

A
  • Class Fish
  • Class Amphibia
  • Class Reptilia
  • Class Aves (birds)
  • Class Mammalia
