exam 3 / quiz 5 Flashcards
animal characteristics (5)
- eukaryotic
- multicellular
- tissues that develop from embryonic germ layers
- heterotrophic predators
- single celled related protist: choanoflagellate
proifera
basal taxon, aquatic, sessile(not able to move), no true tissues
cnidaria
aquatic, radial symmetry = sessile (polyps, tips have nitocites) and mobile (medusa)
deuterostomes
(mouth second), four features of chordates = echmoderms (urchins, sand dollars, sea stars), true regeneration and chordates (vertebrates)
protosomes
(mouth first), molting = lophotrochozoan, mollusks(clams, scallops), cephalopods (squids, octopus), segmented worms and ecdysozoa, round warms + arthopods (insects/ crustaceans) <— increase genetic div.

Chordates taxonomy
Jawless tissues
Cartilaginous fishes
Bony fishes
Amphibians
Reptiles/birds
Mammals
jawless fishes
aquatic
cartilaginous fishes
(sharks/rays), aquatic
bony fishes
aquatic (trout, salmon, gold fish)
amphibians
middle ground (frogs, toads, salamanders) aquatic –> terrestrial
reptiles/ birds
(lizards , snakes, turtles, dinosaurs, alligators/crocs)
mammals
amniotes that feed their young w/ milk from mammary glands
amniotes
tetropods w/ an amniotic egg
gnothosomes
chordates w/ jaws
3 extent lineages of mammals
- monostems - egg laying (ant-eating, platypus)
- marsupials - pouch development (kangaroos, opossums)
- eutherians - placentas (humans, non-human primates, other mammals)
shared features of chordates (4)
- dorsal, hollow nerve cord
- notochord
- post anal tail
- pharyngeal slits/clefts
during formation of “gut” during development
1st involution - mouth –> protosome
1st involution - anus –> deuterostome
bilateral (4)
anterior - toward head
posterior - toward tail
dorsal - toward back
vertral- toward belly
body symmetry (2)
radial symmetry - multiple plains that produce mirror images.
bilateral symmetry - one plane that produce mirror images
Cambrian explosion = 500 mya
- increase in genetic diversity in animals
- increase in atmospheric oxygen
- development of “hox” gene complex
- determines head —> tail and body formation
embryonic germ layers (3)
ectoderm - nervous system
endoderm - gut
mesoderm - muscles/organs
