Q

Animal body plans

Types of Symmetry and Differences

A

Asymmetry - Animals cannot be divided into similar halves on any plane ( ex: sponges)

Radial Symmetry- Arrangement of parts around single main axis ( ex: jellyfish)
No true head—> only 2 tissue layers
+ Aboral & Oral (mouth)

Bilateral Symmetry- Arrangement of an organism along a central axis so organism can be divided into 2 equal halves (ex; humans, fish, snakes, etc) (more complexity)
+ Anterior (front), ventral (belly), dorsal (back/spine), posterior (bottom)

Q

Trends of animal evolution

Simple —————> complex

Asymmetry —–> Radial —–> bilateral

sessile (attach to substrate & will not move) -> gentle stirrings/swim —-> Run, jump, walk…

Filter feeders ( nutrition) —-> herbivory, scavengar, detritivores —-> predatory

A

What are the benefits of body cavities?

  • Facilitate larger body size
  • May act as hydrostatic skeleton (support body but remain flexible)
  • More room for organ development
  • greater area for exchange
