Exam 3 Flashcards
Clade Echinodermata
true coelom deuterostome endoskeleton absence of cephalization radial symmetry Water vascular system Nerve ring Dermal branchiae (skin gills)
clade holothuroidea (sea cucumbers) clade echinoidea (sand dollars, sea urchins) clade asteroidea (sea stars) clade ophiuroidea (brittle stars, basket stars) clade crinoidea (sea lillies, feather stars)
Deuterostomes
blastopore becomes anus
indeterminate development
radial clevage
Spines (Clade Asteroidea)
calcareous projections for protection and support
dermal branchiae/skin gills (Clade Asteroidea)
gas exchange and excretion by simple diffusion
ambulacral groove (Clade Asteroidea)
radiate from mouth to top of each harm
house tube feet
tube feet (Clade Asteroidea)
used for locomotion and prey capture
ampullae
ampulla = singular (Clade Asteroidea)
provide hydrostatic pressure for movement by tube feet
pyloric stomach and cardiac stomach (Clade Asteroidea)
chemical digestion
located on aboral side
Mechanical digestion
Oral side
(Clade Asteroidea)
external fertilization dioecious pentaradial symmetry nerve ring (contain nerves that radiate entire body) water-vascular system aboral (top) oral (bottom)
**sea star
stone canal (Clade Asteroidea)
portion of water vascular system from madreporite to ring canal
madreporite (Clade Asteroidea)
porous entrance to water vascular system
pressure regulator and simple filter
pedicellariae (Clade Asteroidea)
keep sea star clean from organisms that settle on surface
Pincer like structures
ring canal (Clade Asteroidea)
portion of water vascular system that circles mouth
radial canals (Clade Asteroidea)
portion of water vascular system from ring canal to each arm
respiratory tree (Clade Holothuroidea)(Clade Echinodermata)
gas exchange
tentacles (Clade Holothuroidea)
used for food collection
cloaca (Clade Holothuroidea)
pumps water into and out of respiratory trees
tube feet (Clade Holothuroidea)
locomotion
(Clade Holothuroidea)
sea cucumber
can reform lost body parts; forces insides out of anus when provoked by other organisms
Clade chordata characteristics (7)
tripoblastic Well developed digestive, nervous, and excretory system deuterostome bilateral symmetry endoskeleton (bone or cartillage) highly cephalized homologous structures
5 specific features that all chordates share at some point of development
- notochord: first part of endoskeleton; anchors myomere (muscles)
- pharyngeal gills slits: suspension feeding in simple chordates, pharynx in vertebrates
- dorsal, hollow nerve cord: vertebrate spinal cord
- postanal tail: motility in lower chordates, vestigial in humans
- endostyle or thyroid gland
Clade tunicata
suspension filter feeders
sessile as adults; motile as larvae
open circuatory system
hermaphroditic
endostyle (clade tunicata)
secrete mucus that coat pharynx in order to trap food particles
pharynx with gill slits (clade tunicata)
allow for outflow of water from pharynx into atrium
incurrent and excurrent siphons (clade tunicata)
water opening (bring in oxygen and food particles and carries out CO2 and waste)
notochord (clade tunicata)
skeletal support for anchoring of swimming muscles in larval form
postanal tail (clade tunicata) and dorsal nerve chord (clade tunicata)
not present in adult form
atrium (clade tunicata)
receives water passed from pharynx though pharyngeal slits
clade cephalochrodata
Lancelet (amphioxus) burrows in sand some cartilage but no true skeleton closed circulatory system for nutrient distribution rather than gas exchange (colorless) cephalization is absent
rostrum (clade cephalochordata)
anterior projection shielding entrance to mouth
myomeres (clade cephalochordata)
provide muscular movement for swimming and burrowing
gill bars and gill slits (clade cephalochordata)
outflow of water from pharynx between gills bars for food capture and respiration
hepatic cecum (clade cephalochordata)
digestion and lipid/glycogen storage
Clade Agnatha
jawless
clade cephalaspidomorphi (lamprey)
clade vertebrata “craniata”
bilateral symmetry well-developed head with cranium closed circulatory system vertebral column encasing dorsal nerve cord chambered heart
clade cephalaspidomorphi
lampreys
ammocoetes: larvae that live in sand or water for 3-5 years before undergoing metamorphosis
Adaptions to stay afloat (clade chondrichthyes)
heterocercal tail
cartilaginous skeleton
constantly swimming
oily liver
characteristics specific to sharks (clade chondrichthyes)
cartilaginous skeleton strong jaws with sharp teeth paired fins fusiform body well developed sensory organs (olfactory organs, lateral line system, electroreceptors) constantly swimming heterocercal tail heart with 2 chambers
**sharks, rays, chimaeras
claspers (clade chondrichthyes)
used in copulation to deliver sperm
spiracles (clade chondrichthyes)
function as modified gill slits allow water to draw into pharynx and across gills
liver (clade chondrichthyes)
oily
produce bile and detoxifies many constituents of absorbed digestive compounds
pancreas
produce digestive enzymes
produce hormone that control blood glucose levels
spleen
stores blood and recycle worn out RBC
illeum (valvular intestine, spiral valve) (clade chondrichthyes)
primary site of digestion and absorption of nutrients
First true vertebrates
less than 1 foot long
no tails, wiggled for movement
lacked jaws and teeth, bottom dwellers (food from ocean floor)
benefits of jaws and paired fins
jaws: grip food firmly
paired fins: maneuver more precisely
bottom feeders –> active predators
gills slits used for filter feeding –? gas exchange
