Chapter 33: Invertebrates Pt.1 Flashcards
Animals that lack a backbone, account for over 95% of known animal species
Invertebrates
Occupy almost every habitat on Earth
Invertebrates
Invertebrates are ____________ diverse, including species that microscopic and those that are 18 m long
Morphologically
Sponges; are sessile, filter feeders that lack true tissues
Porifera
Radially symmetrical
Cnidaria and Ctenophora
Diploblastic animals with a gastrovascular cavity
Cnidarians
Corrals, jellies, and hydras belong to this phylum
Cnidaria
Includes flatworms with a simple NS and saclike gut
Acoela
Composed of a bilateral of a few thousand cells
Trichoplax adhaerens
Trichoplax adhaerens
Only placozoan species
Comb jellies
Ctenophora
Diploblastic, radially symmetrical animals
Ctenophora and Cnidaria
Have 8 “combs” of cilia that propel them through the water
Ctenophora
Compose much of the ocean’s plankton
Comb jellies
Includes phyla with diverse body plans such as flatworms, molluscs, and segmented worms
Lophotrochozoa
Flatworms that have bilateral symmetry and a CNS
Platyhelminthes
Do not have a body cavity or circulatory organs
Platyhelminthes
Tapeworms, planarians, and flukes
Platyhelminthes
What are the two former phyla of Syndermata
Rotifers and Acanthocephalans
Are microscopic and have complex organ systems
Rotifers
Highly modified parasites of vertebrates
Acanthocephalans
Bryozoans; live as sessile colonies covered by a tough exoskeleton
Ectoprocta
Lamp shells; superficially resemble clams and other molluscs
Brachiopoda
Most have unique stalk anchoring them to the substrate
Brachiopoda
Have a crown of cilia called a lophophore
Brachiopoda
Hairy bellies; tiny worms that have cilia covering their ventral surface
Gastrotricha
Most species live at the bottoms of lakes or oceans
Gastrotricha
(1) Symbion pandora; lives on the bodies of lobsters
Cycliophora
Males impregnate females that are still developing within their mother’s bodies
Cycliophora
Ribbon worms; swim or burrow in sand
Nemertea
Have unique proboscis for capturing prey, an alimentary canal, and a closed circulatory system
Nemertea
The coelom is reduced and the body is solid
Nemertea
Most of these segmented worms live in marine or freshwater habitats
Annelida
Earthworms
Annelida
Have a soft body, protected by a hard shell in many species
Mollusca
Snails, claims, squids, and octopi
Mollusca
The phyla in this groups include more species than all other eukaryotic groups combined
Ecdysozoa
Name the 5 groups of Invertebrates
Porifera, Cnidaria, Acoela, Placozoa, and Ctenophora
Name the first 4 groups of Lophotrochozoa
Platyhelminthes, Syndermata, Ectoprocta, and Brachiopoda
Name the 5 other groups of Lophotrochozoa
Gastrotricha, Cycliophora, Nemertea, Annelida, and Mollusca
