Exam 4 Flashcards
Protostome
For animals with this type of development, the mouth generally develops from the blastopore; they also have a ventral nervous system and spiral cleavage
Deuterostome
For animals with this type of development, the blastopore Becomes the anus; they also have a dorsal nervous system and radial cleavage
Ectoderm
A layer of tissue that gives rise to the outer covering
Indeterminate
A cleavage type in which each cell in the early embryo retains the capacity to develop into a complete embryo
Triploblastic
This type of embryos have an endoderm, ectoderm, and mesoderm tissue layers
Pseudocoelomates
Have a body cavity only partially lined by tissue derived from mesoderm
Bilateral
In animal with this type of symmetry has a dorsal side and ventral side; anterior and posterior sides; this symmetry is strongly correlated with cephalization
Ecdysozoa
Animals that secrete external skeleton’s
Tunicates
Adults of this committee group lose almost all of their chordate characteristics
Endoderm
A layer of tissue that gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract in the organs derived from it, such as the liver in the lungs
Lancelates
Adults of this primitive group retain the key chordate characteristics
Neural Crest
In Craniates, this group of embryonic cells disperse through the body and contribute to the formation of various structures, including teeth and bones of the skull
Hagfishes
These transitional animals have a skull but lack jaws
Lateral line system
A row of microscopic organs in gnathostomes that is sensitive to vibrations in surrounding water
Chondrichthyes
This group of animals has relatively flexible endoskeleton’s made of cartilage
Dorsal
This type of fins provide stabilization for sharks
Sharks
Most are carnivores, but the largest or suspension feeders. They move by lateral undulation
Rays
Move by vertical undulation
Lobe- finned
These fishes have jointed fins
Lung fishes
Have both gills and lungs
Oviparous
This type of sharks encase there eggs in protective cases and leave them outside the body
