Bilateria (Animals with Bilateral Symmetry) Flashcards
bilateria
- bilateral symmetry
- dorsal and ventral sides
- cephalization
- filtration excretory organs
cephalization
evolutionary trend - nervous tissue over many generations becomes concentration toward one end of an organism
protosotmia
w/in bilateria
- blastopore (mouth)
- schizocoely (body cavity formed by splitting the mesodermal embryonic tissue)
spiralia (lophotrochozoa)
w/in protosotmia annelids, mollusks, bryozoans, chaetogaths, rotifers - larval protonephridia - chaetae (stiff bristles) - beta chitin
ecdysozoa
w/in protosotmia, moulting animals (arthropods, nematodes)
protonephridia
flame cell - create a vacuum that sucks out substances on the other side of a membrane (filters)
platyhelminthes
w/in spiralia
flatworms!
- multi-ciliated epidermis and gastrodermis
- two cilia per protonephridial terminal cell
Turbellaria
NOT AN ACCEPTED GROUP
diverse, free-living, no cuticle
- circular, longitudinal and dorsoventral muscle
- mouth, but NO POO HOLE
rhabdites
- rod-shaped secretions from the cell wall
- recreated by epidermal glands
- slime production
- in turbellaria
statocysts
gravity recptor
ciliary receptors
mechanoreceptor - mechangical pressure or distorition
chemoreceptors
detects chemical stimuli in the environment
