16
Q

Define Pygidium

A

Carries anus - Regenerates new body parts

17
Q

What are the parapodia/setae used for

A

Used for mobility and also staying stationary

18
Q

What are common feeding habitats

A

Herbivorers - Omnivorers - Predator
Liner unsegmented gut - Mouth and anus - Reversible pharynx - Sedentaria have muscular gizzard
Hirudines have grasping teeth

19
Q

Describe an Annelids skeleton and locomotion

A

Hydrostatic skeleton via coelom. Longitudinal muscles (Inner) and Circulatory muscles (Outer)

20
Q

Describe the respiratory/circulatory system of an Annelid

A

Permeable body covering - Closed circulatory system - Dorsal vessels carrie blood anterioly - Ventral vessels carries blood posteroily - Lateral vessels link them + work as 5 large hearts

21
Q

How do Annelids deal with waste excretion.

A

Paired nephridia in each segment/Some Ammonia across body surfaces

22
Q

Describe the basic Annelid nervous system

A

Anterior brain with a solid ventral nerve cord

Light/Chemical/Touch/Vibration Receptors across the whole body

23
Q

What is the function of the Hormeno system

A

To stimulate gonads in order to regrow them

24
Q

How does each family with in Annelid reproduce?

A

Errantia/Setentaria are Dioecious (Can be asexually)

Clitellate (Distinctive Gonads)/Hirudinidae (Internal) are hermaphroditic

25
Q

What are Errantia’s characteristics

A

Distinct head with Sense organs/Chitinous jaws - Parapodia/setae for locomotion/burrowing/Respiration - No permanent gonads - Gametes arise via swelling in Peritoneum. External fertilisation

26
Q

Define the Peritoneum

A

Membranes that line the cavity of the abdomen

27
Q

What are Hirudineas major characteristics

A

No Parapodia/Setae/sensory appendages (Has eyes) - Posterior/oral suckers - Hermaphroditic (Clitellum) - Carnivorous

28
Q

Define the Clitellum

A

Area for the reproductive organs

29
Q

What are the general reproductive features of Hirudineas?

A

Typically have ventrally opening Gonopores/ Or just a penis and vagina - Internal fertilisation via Spermatophore or Hypodermic implantation.
Young develop in Coccoons

30
Q

Define Gonopore

A

Genital pore

31
Q

Define spermatophore

A

A protein capsule containing a mass of spermatozoa

32
Q

Briefly describe the CNS of a Hirudinea

A

Large Neurons in a single layer in 32 segments, each with a ganglion/repeats for each segments
