cnidaria/half of lophotrochozoa Flashcards
cnidaria phylum
- eumetazoa
- two germ tissue layers (diploblastic)
- mesoglea (between the ectoderm and endoderm)
- gastrovascular cavity – extracellular digestion
- nerve net (lacks central control organ)
ctenophora phylum
- eumetazoa
- two germ tissue layers (diploblastic)
- mesoglea (between the ectoderm and endoderm)
- gastrovascular cavity – extracellular digestion
- nerve net (lacks central control organ)
clade hydrozoa
- phylum cnidaria
- spend most life as a polyp
- short-lived medusa stage – mainly for sex rep
ex. portuguese man of war
Clade Anthozoa
sea anemones and corals
- tend to lack medusa phase
clade scyphozoa
- large and dominant medusa stage
- polyp = reduced larval stage
ex. jellyfishes, moon jelly medusas, and Cassiopeia sp. (upside down jellyfish)
Ctenophora Phylum
comb jellyfish that lack stinging cells (nematocysts)
have rows of cilia (bolinhas) known as combs or ctens
lophotrochozoa
- bilateral symmetry
- triploblastic (three embryonic tissue layers) – where structures and organs develop
protostomes
parla = mouth develops first
cleavage - determinate cleavage
deuterostomes
blastopore = anus
monophyletic clade
cleavage - indeterminate
protostomia clades
ecdysozoa and lophotrochozoa
lophotrochozoa posses 2 subcategories
has lophophore - feeding apparatus (with clilated tentacles)
and the trochophores - larval stage
platyhelminthes phylum
- bilateral symmetry
- no true body cavity
- cephalization (head region that has sense organs)
- incomplete gastrovascular system (one opening)
- taxis (directed response to a stimulus)
ex. flatworms
syndermata phylum
3
- have a ciliated corona – mov. and to move food
- mastax (jaws for chewing + grasping food particles)
- complete digestive system
ex. rotifers
brachiopoda phylum
- body cavity
- have lophophore
- resemble clams
- sessile
annelida phylum
4
- true segmentation – separation of the body wall by transverse partitions called septa
— same set of muscles and same repeated structures. important for rep - simple brain - ganglion and ventral nerve cord
- clitellum - fused segms involved in reproduction
ex. segmented worms / earthworms
tapeworm body structures
4
scolex
immature proglottid
mature proglottid
gravid proglottid
clitellum
reg. repro.
the part that “pops out” the most when looking at the worm
earthworm
setae
bristle-like projections that help with movement / thin wall
earthworm
scolex
closest to the head
tapeworm
mature proglottids
have male and female sex organs – in the middle
tapeworm
gravid proglottids
posterior end of the worm
filled with eggs
tapeworm
immature proglottid
closest to the scolex
tapeworms
errantia
most members are free-living predators
well-defined head region
have parapodia – defense, swimming, and gas exchange
sedentaria
lack parapodia
lack well-developed head
ex. earthworms, tubeworms, and leeches
pharynx
suction pump and sucks in food
earthworms
crop
temporarily stores food
earthworms
gizzard
grinds up food to begin digestion
earthworms
digestion in a earthworm
food –> mouth –> pharynx –> esophagus –> crop –> gizzard –> intestines –> anus –> waste
cephalization
head region that has sense organs
