Animal - Protostome Flashcards
LG 15
protostome
major lineage of animals
- embryonic development pattern: mouth b4 anus
- coelem formation: mesoderm block splits
- live in aquatic & terrestrial habitats
(ie) mollucks, anthropods, annelids
lophophore
specialized feeding structure found in some lophotrochozoans
- used in suspension feeding
- feather-like
trochophore
larva w/ ring of cilia around its middle
- found in some lophotrochozoans
worm
animal w/ long, thin, tubelike body lacking limbs
proboscis
tubular, often extendable, feeding appendage w/ which food can be obtained
foot
large musclar appendage @ base of animal
- 1 of 3 main parts of mollusk body
- used for movements
visceral mass
contains most of internal organs & external gill
- 1 of 3 main parts of mollusk body
mantle
thick outer tissue
- 1 of 3 main parts of mollusk body
- may secrete a CaCO3 shell
- protects visceral mass
hemocoel
body cavity
- present in arthopods & some mollusks
- contains heolymph (pool of circulatory fluid) bathing internal organs
- not lined in mesoderm
- “blood hollow”
radula
rasping feeding appendage in mollusks
(ie) gastropods: snails, slugs
siphon
tube-like appendage of many mollusks
- often used for feeding
- spits out water for propulsion
corona
cluster of cilia @ anterior end of rotifer
- often facilitates suspension feeding
- hair crown
parthenogenesis
development of offspring from unfertilized eggs
- asexual reproduction
chaetae
bristle-like extensions found in some annelids
parapodia
appendages found in some annelids from which bristle-like structures (chaetae) extend
