Q

What are Hox Genes?

A

They are conductor genes. The are major genes that control developement of other genes. You dont need too many genes to change form.

Q

What is Radially symmetrical body plane?

A

It has a top and bottom. It has many planes and every plane that goes through the center will break the image into 2 halves that are mirror images.

Q

What animals are diploblastic?

A

cnidarians (jelly fish)

17
Q

What is a mesoderm and what does it give rise to?

A

a germ layer that fills much of the space between the ectoderm and endoderm. it gives rise to the muscles and most organs between the digestive tract.

18
Q

What animals are triploblastic?

A

Flatworms,
arthropods
vertebrates

19
Q

What is a coelom and give an example animal

A

A body cavity. its a fluid- or air-filled space located between the digestive tract and the outer body wall.
Earthworms have coelem.

20
Q

what does a true coelom form?

A

it forms from tissues derived from mesoderm.

21
Q

What do you call animals with true coelom?

A

coelomates

22
Q

What is a pseudocoelom and give an example animal?

A

a body cavity that is formed from mesoderm and endo derm. It is NOT a false body cavity.
Roundworms have it

23
Q

What is acoelomate?

A

lacking of a body cavity. Planarians have it.

24
Q

What is a hydroskeleton who has it?

A

internal body fluids in limited spaced . round worms have it

25
Q

What is exoskeleton and who has it?

A

rigid external body parts like shells or armor plates. Snails and clams have it

26
Q

What is endoskeleton?

A

skeleton fond within the body structures (we have it )
