8
Q

Why did the cambrian explosion occur? (4)

A

1) Increased oxygen-greater metabolic activity, evolution of the eye
2) Predator/prey-predation
3) Climate/Temp-niche/specialization
4) New genes-mutations allow for new, larger bodies

16
Q

Radically Symmetric

A

two or more planes of symmetry

17
Q

Bilateral

A

most animals-one plane of symmetry

18
Q

2 sets of genes determine bilaterian symmetry

A

Homeobox and Decapentaplegic

19
Q

Homeobox Gene

A

Anterior/Posterior (front to back)

20
Q

Decapentaplegic Gene

A

Dorsal/Ventral (up to down axis)

21
Q

Major characteristic change from plants to animals?

A

nervous system

22
Q

two parts of the nervous system

A

Central Nervous System (head) and Sensory Organs (touch, hear, smell, temperature)

23
Q

The Coelom “tube within a tube”

A

Organ movement/nutrient circulation

Movement without limbs (worms)

24
Q

Protostomes Definition

A

Insects-bilaterally symmetric

25
Deutorostomes
Animals-bilaterally symmetric
26
Protostomes Characteristics (3)
1)Mouth first, anus last 2) blocks of mesoderm break create coelum 3)mollusks, worms, arthropods
27
Deuterostomes Characteristics (3)
1) Ass first 2)Mesoderm pinch off create coelum 3)Chordates
