Q

In mollusk the internal organs?

A
  • coelom is highly reduced (mantle cavity)

Q

In mollusk the what removes nitrogenous waste?

A

Nephridia

19
Q

In mollusk the circulatory system?

A
  • is open: hemp lymph sloshes around hemocoel and has 3 chambered heart
  • Cephalopods have a closed circulatory system
20
Q

Mollusk reproduction

A

-most mollusk are gonochoric (have two separate sexes)
-most engage in external fertilization (free swimming larval stage)
-veliger (second free swimming larval stage)
(Only in bivalves and most marine snails)
-both form drift widely in ocean

21
Q

Name the Classes of mollusks

A

Polyplacophora-chitons
Gastropods-limpets, snails, slugs
Bivalves-clams, oysters, scallops
Cephalopods- squids, octopuses, cuttlefish, and chambered nautilus

22
Q

Class Polyplacophora

A

Chitons

  • marine mollusks that have oval bodies
  • 8overlapping dorsal calcareous plates
  • most chitons are grazing herbivores
23
Q

Class Gastropoda

A
  • limpets, snails, slugs
  • primarily marine group- some fresh water and only terrestrial mollusks
  • most have single shell, some lost
  • heads typically have pairs of tentacles with eyes
24
Q

Class Gastropoda: Nudibranchs

A

Marine snails that lack a shell

  • exposed gills
  • many secrete distasteful chemicals
  • some extract nematocysts from cnidarian prey and transfer them to their body surface
25
Q

Class Bivalvia

A
  • clams, scallops, mussels, oysters and other
  • most marine some fresh water
  • no radula or distinct head
  • have 2 shells (valves) hinged together
  • adductor muscles counter hinge ligament
  • water enters through inhalant siphon and exits through exhalant siphon
26
Q

Class Cephalopoda

A
  • more than 600 strictly marine species
  • active marine predator
  • only mollusks with closed circulatory system
  • foot have evolved into a series of arms equipped with suction cups (beak-like jaw, toxic saliva)
  • largest brain size among invertebrates
  • highly developed nervous system
  • living Cephalopoda lack external shell
  • jet propulsion using siphon
  • ink can be ejected from siphon
  • Chromatophores allow for changing skin color for camouflage or communication
27
Q

Lophotrochozoans-Nemertea

A
  • ribbonworms
  • about 900 species of cylindrical to flattened very long worms
  • most marine
  • body resembles flatworm
  • complete gut
  • rhynchocoel: fluid filled coelomic cavity

Q

Lophotrochozoans phylum Annelida

  • segmented worms
  • body built of repeated units
  • allow for specialization
  • may not be monophyletic
29
Q

Describe Annelida body plan

A
  • head well developed cerebral ganglion
  • sensory organs in ring like segments
  • many have eyes
  • segments divided internally by septa (each segment has organs, ganglion, locomotory structure)
  • closed circulatory
  • ventral nerve cord
30
Q

In Annelida the digestive track is?

A

Specialized for different functions

31
Q

Describe locomotion in Annelida

A
  • coelomic fluid creates a hydrostatic skeleton
  • alternating muscle contractions allow complex movements
  • chaetae: bristles of chitin found in most groups
32
Q

Annelida has what kind of circulatory system and diffusions occurs how?
