Ch. 32 Overview of animal diversity Flashcards
What is an animal?
Multicellular eukaryotes with tissues that develop from embryonic layers.
What is the process of gastrulation?
Blastula forms a small crease (blastopore), forming the archenteron (gut) in which reaches the surface of the now formed embryo
What is protostome developement?
- initial determination of what the cell can do.
- Spiral and determinate
Deuterostomes
- identical twins
- radial, indeterminate
Evolution of animal complexity
Radial symmetry
Mirror images (no left or right)
Ex: jelly fish and sea anemones.
Bilateral symmetry
one plain , mirror images with left and right,dorsal & ventral, head and tail.
Ex: Humans, dogs, fish
Asymmetrical
no symmetry
example: sponges
Animal epthiel tissues
- Covers the body and lines internal organs.
- protection, absorption & secretion
Examples: skin, and lining of the digestive tract.
Connective Tissues provide
support and structure
Ex: bones, cartilage and blood
Muscle tissue provides
contraction and movement
3 types: skeletal, smooth, cardiac
Nervous Tissues are responsible for
transmitting and processing information.
Ex: spinal cord, brain, nerves
No cavity organisms
flat and compact and allow circulation and moving things around like oxygen
Hemocoel
A split between the endoderm(digestive tract) and mesoderm (muscle layer)
