Chapter 32 An Overveiw Of Anmial Diversity Flashcards
How do animals obtain food?
Ingestion
All are heterotrophs
Do animals have cell walls?
How are bodies held together?
No
Structural proteins such as collagen
What are two types of specialization tissue seen in animals to help with movement?
Nervous tissue and muscle tissue
A zygote is _______-celled
Single
Mitotic cell division without cell growth
Cleavage
Multicellular embryonic stage, hollow ball
Blastula
The process where Layers of embryonic tissue that will develop into adult body parts are produced
- major cell movement
- blastula develops into gastrula
- 3 germ layers
Gastrulation
What are the three germ layers?
Ectoderm
Endoderm
Mesoderm
Many animals have at least one ________ stage
Larval
Larva-sexually immature form of the animal and looks structurally different than the adult. May have different habitats, food, etc
a juvenile resembles an adult, but is not yet sexually mature
Incomplete metamorphosis
Do you sponges have Hox genes?
No
- gene expression of segment
- regulate the development of body form
- determine identity of particular segments
Hox genes
Hox genes are only present in ___________.
Animals
Protists that are a sister group to animals
Collar cells are almost identical
Choanoflagellates
*Closest living relative to animals…
Choanoflagellates
How are animals characterized by?
“Body plans”
Morphological and developmental traits
Two-sided symmetry
Animals with this symmetry move more rapidly
Planes include-dorsal, ventral, right and left, anterior, posterior
Bilateral symmetry
Central nervous system, anterior brain
Seen in animals with bilateral symmetry
cephalization
