Chapter 32 Flashcards
Asymmetry
No organization or symmetry
Radial symmetry
Any division through central axis yields mirror image
Bilateral symmetry
Only one division straight through middle yields an L/R image
Cephalization
“Head”, sensory organs concentrated at anterior end
Ectoderm
Germ layer covering surface of embryo (gives rise to nervous system, integumentary system)
Endoderm
Innermost germ layer (gives rise to digestive, respiratory, circulatory systems)
Mesoderm
In between ectoderm and endoderm (gives rise to muscular, skeletal system, & internal organs)
No tissue =?
No organization
Diploblastic
2 layers, ectoderm + endoderm
Triploblastic
3 layers, ectoderm + mesoderm + endoderm
Body cavity
space between outer body wall & digestive tract
Coelom
“Hollow”, body cavity
Coelomates
Animals w/ true body cavity
- Coelom derived from mesoderm only
- Lines both body wall and digestive tract
Pseudocoelomates
“False hollow”
- Coelom derived from mesoderm +endoderm
- Lines only body wall and not digestive tract
Acoelomate
No body cavity
