Sets of morphological and developmental traits

A

Body plans

37
Q

Are conserved, also have changed many times over the course of evolution

A

Body plans

38
Q

Can be compared based on body symmetry

39
Q

What are the two types of symmetry of animals?

A

Radial and bilateral

40
Q

Often sessile or planktonic (drifting or weakly swimming)

A

Radially symmetrical animals

41
Q

Move actively and have a CNS

A

Bilateral animals

42
Q

Body parts of arranged around a single central axis

A

Radial symmetry

43
Q

Any imaginary slice through the central axis divides the animals into mirror images

A

Radial symmetry

44
Q

Body parts of arranged around 2 axes of orientation, the head-tail axis and the dorsal-ventral axis

A

Bilateral symmetry

45
Q

Only 1 imaginary slice divides the animals into mirror-image halves, the right side and left side

A

Bilateral symmetry

46
Q

What 3 things do bilateral symmetrical animals have?

A

Dorsal (top) side and ventral (bottom) side, a right and left side, & head and tail end

47
Q

Have sensory equipment (brain) concentrated in their anterior end

A

Bilateral symmetrical animals

48
Q

Animal body plants also vary according to the organization of _______

49
Q

Collection of specialized cells that act as a functional unit

50
Q

Lack tissues

A

Sponges and few other groups

51
Q

What are the 2 germ layers of animals

A

Ectoderm; endoderm

52
Q

Covers the embryo’s surface, and gives rise to the outer covering and CNS

53
Q

The innermost layer, lines the blind pouch (archenteron) that will form the gut, and gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract and organs

54
Q

Type of animal that only have ectoderm and endoderm, example are Cnidarians

A

Diploblastic animals

55
Q

Type of animals that have a third germ layer

A

Triploblastic animals

56
Q

Fills the space between ectoderm and endoderm, and gives rise to muscles and most organs

57
Q

Most triploblastic animals have a ________ ________

A

Body cavity

58
Q

A fluid- or air-filled space between the digestive tract and the outer body wall

A

Body cavity

59
Q

Function of body cavities (1)

A

Internal fluid cushions the suspended organs

60
Q

Function of body cavities (2)

A

The fluid can act like a skeleton against which the muscle of soft-bodied animals can work

61
Q

Function of body cavities (3)

A

The cavity enables internal organs to grow and move independently of the outer body wall

62
Q

A body cavity surrounded by tissues derived from mesoderm

63
Q

Forms structures that suspend the internal organs

64
Q

A body cavity formed between the mesoderm and endoderm

65
Q

Hemocoel is filled with _________

66
Q

A fluid that transports nutrients and waste throughout the body cavity

Q

Many animals have a _______ and a ________

A

Hemocoel; coelom

68
Q

T/F: All Triploblastic animals have a body cavity

A

F: some Triploblastic animals do NOT have a body cavity

69
Q

Tend to be compact animals with thin, flat bodies that exchange nutrients, gases, and wastes across the body surface

A

Triploblastic animals

70
Q

What are the 2 developmental modes of animals

A

Protostome or deuterostome development

71
Q

What 3 things do protostome and deuterostome development differ in?

A

Cleavage, coelom formation, and fate of the blastopore

72
Q

Many animals with protostome development have _______ and _______ cleavage

A

Spiral; determinant

73
Q

The planes of cell division are diagonal to the vertical axis of the embryo

A

Spiral cleavage

74
Q

Rigidly determines the developmental fate of each embryonic cell very early

A

Determinate cleavage

75
Q

What 2 types of cleavage does deuterostome development have?

A

Radial and indeterminate cleavage

76
Q

The planes of division are either parallel or perpendicular to the embryo’s vertical axis

A

Radial cleavage

77
Q

Each cell produced by early cleavage is able to form a complete embryo

A

Indeterminate cleavage

78
Q

In Coelom formation, during gastrulation, the embryo forms an ____________

A

Archenteron

79
Q

Blind pouch formed by the embryo; becomes the gut

A

Archenteron

80
Q

During which development does the coelom form by the splitting of the solid masses of mesoderm

A

Protostome development

81
Q

During which development does the coelom form from the mesoderm buds from the wall of the archenteron

A

Deuterostome development

82
Q

An indentation in the gastrula that leads to the formation of the archenteron

A

Blastopore

83
Q

What two things will form the mouth and anus?

A

Blastopore and second opening at the opposite end

84
Q

Which development does the blastopore become the mouth?
