Q

Cephalization

A

Evolutionary trend of the concentration of sense organs and nerve control that is towards the anterior end of the body (all senses developed in places where they can have close communication with our brain)

e.g. our eyes, ears, mouth, nose, tongue are all sensory organs that developed in the close regions to the brain

Q

What is the general embryonic development of animals?

A

1) Zygote
2)Cleavage (8 cell stage)
3) Blastula
4) Gastrulation (folding in beings)

29
Q

Mesoderm

A

Is the development of a third embryonic germ layer that comes later in some animals

30
Q

Cleavage

A

The fertilized zygote undergoes rapid mitotic divisions and creates the cleavage

31
Q

Blastula

A

Spherical shape and has a hollow inside called the blastocoel

32
Q

-coel

A

Meaning cavity/empty

33
Q

Blastocoel

A

Hollow inside of the blastula

34
Q

Gastrulation

A

Occurs when the blastocoel begins to start folding in on itself

35
Q

Grastula

A

Once gastrulation is complete the entire structure of the cell body is called the gastrula

36
Q

What are the layers of the Grastula?

A

1) Blastocoel
2)Endoderm
3) Ectoderm
4) Archenteron
5)Blastopore

37
Q

Ectoderm

A

Most outer layer of a gastrula

38
Q

Blastocoel of the Gastrula

A

The original empty hollow space that we have during the blastula phase

39
Q

Endoderm

A

Inside fold on the gastrula

40
Q

Archenteron

A

Is a second hollow space that forms as a result of the endoderm forming

41
Q

Blastopore

A

Entrance to the archenteron

42
Q

Embryonic germ layer

A

Any cell that is undifferentiated, in which other structures will eventually develop within the animals

43
Q

What are the general tissue layers in an embryo?

A
  • Ectoderm
    -Endoderm
    -Mesoderm
44
Q

Ectoderm

A

Start of the tissue that lines the body surface

45
Q

What are some examples of the ectoderm?

A
  • Epidermis of skin and its derivatives (includes hair follicles, sweat glands)
    -Lining of the mouth and anus
    -Cornea and lens of eye
    -Tooth enamel
    -Sensory receptors in the skin
    -nervous system
46
Q

Mesoderm

A

The source of muscles and provides structure and support

** only forms in triploblastic animals

47
Q

What are some examples of mesoderm?

A

-Skeletal system
-Muscular system
-Adrenal cortex
-reproductive system
circulatory and lymphatic system
-lining of body cavity

48
Q

Endoderm

A

Develops int the inner gut lining and includes the liver and pancreas

49
Q

What are some examples of the endoderm?

A

-Liver
-Pancreas
-Epithelial lining of digestive tract
-Epithelial lining of the respiratory system
-Thyroid and parathyroid glands

50
Q

Diploblastic

A

Only contains the ectoderm and the endoderm and is the ancestral state

51
Q

Triploblastic

A

Have the ectoderm, endoderm, and the mesoderm and is the derived state

52
Q

Coelom

A

A fluid or air-filled space located between the digestive tract and the outer body wall

53
Q

What is the function of the coelom?

A

Is to provide cushion in order to prevent injury to internal organs, it also enables organs to grow and move independently of the outer body wall.

54
Q

What is an evolutionary characteristic of coelom?

A

The ancestral form are animals lacking coelom all together

55
Q

Acoelomates

A

-Animals that lack a coelom which automatically limits their growth.
-The outside of their bodies is continuous with all their internal structures

  • ancestral form
56
Q

Coelomate animals

A

Animals that have a true coelom which forms from the mesoderm

-this is the most derived state
-all vertebrates are coelomate animals

57
Q

Pseudocoelmates

A

Form both from the mesoderm and the endoderm (ancestral to coelomate characteristics).

-Very rare in aniamls

58
Q

Why must acoelomate remain small in body size?

A

***Because their organs are attached to their skin and if the skin grows then their internal organs would burst?
(cant remember this one, double check answer!!)

59
Q

Protostome Development

A

-Is the ancestral path
-has spiral cleavage
-In its earliest stage of development, the cells have already been designated for a specific function (determinant)

60
Q

Deuterostome Development

A

-The derived path
-Has radial cleavage
-First developing cells are undergoing cleavage and these cells have yet to be given a function (these cells are known as stem cells)

61
Q

What are the key comparisons of protostome and deuterostome development?

A

1) Cleavage
2)Determination of earliest cells
3)Coelom Formation
4) Fate of the blastopore

62
Q

What is the fate of the blastopore?

A

In protostome development, the mouth develops from the blastopore.

In deuterostome development, the anus develops from the blastopore.

63
Q

Spiral Cleavage

A

Cells divide in a circular motion around the polar axis of the mass of dividing cells

64
Q

Radial Cleavage

A

Cells divide towards the polar axis.

65
Q

What do morphological and molecular data agree on?

A

1) all animals share a common ancestor- the protists colonial flagellate
2) Sponges are the most ancestral animals
3)Eumetazoa is a clade of animals with true tissue
4) Most animals demonstrate bilateral symmetry
5)Chordates and Echinoderms are deuterostomes
