Embryonic Development Part II Flashcards
What does the development of a digestive tract enable?
specialization of gut regions
what does the stomach do?
it stores food until it can be readily processed
- disinfects food
what does the intestine do?
breaks down the food
What does the development of a digestive tract enable?
Sequential food processing
What does the development of a digestive tract enable?
continuous operation
What’s the gizzard?
muscular structure that grinds food particles
How do cows eat their food?
they regurgitate their food and chew it some more and make it more processable and then food gets swallowed again and is in the omasum
what does the omasum do?
takes in a lot of water and minerals from the food
what odes the abomasum do?
disinefcts the food with hydrochloric acid - like our stomach
what does the intestine of a cow do?
secretes enzymes and process all of the molecules
what’s the digestive system of a rabbit?
rabbit eats the food –> stomach –> small intenstine but not much can happen here since the cellulose is in the way –> large intestine: water extraction –> cecum: corresponds to our appendix - lots of microorganisms: break down of cellulose –> gut –> produces two types of poop
what are the two types of poop rabbits produce?
- soft poop with the goodies and then they eat it…
2. poop with all the waste
What are the two ways a digestive tract develops in bilateria?
Protosomes
- 1st is mouth
- blastopore –> mouth
- new opening –> anus
What are the two ways a digestive tract develops in bilateria?
Dueterostomes
- humans
- 2nd is mouth
- blastopore –> anus
- new opening –> mouth
What are the tree different body plans with respect to body cavities?
- coelomate
- pseduocoelomate
- acoelomate
Coelomate
mesoderm lines the entire cavity as a “peritoneum”
Pseudocoelomate
“false colem”
- the mesoderm lines the outside of psedocoel
Acoelomate
- no body cavity
- solid except digestive space
- flat organisms (not much in terms of organs)
What the two ways to make a coelom
- schinzocoely
2. enterocoely
schinzocoely
splitting with the mesoderm
- protosomes
enterocoely
mesoderm forms pockets from the gut
-deuterostomes
LOPHOphore
ciliated feeding gas exchange strucutre
TROCHOphore
a ciliated free living larval form
what kind of animals are Endysozoans
moulting animals
how do animals moult?
they have an external covering secreted by the epidermis that must be shed in order to grow
when are endysozoans vulnerable?
directly after moulting
