Kingdom Animalia Flashcards
Cellular level of organisation is exhibited by
Sponges
Tissue level of organisation is exhibited by
Coelentrates
Organ level of organisation is exhibited by
Platyhelminthes
Organ system level of organisation is exhibited by
Higher phyla
Difference between complete and incomplete digestive system
Incomplete digestive system has single opening to the outside which serves as both mouth and anus.
whereas
Complete digestive system has has two opening mouth and the anus
Incomplete digestive system is present in
Platyhelminthes
Open type circulatory system & closed type circulatory system
Open type is in which blood is pumped out of the heart and the cells and tissues are directly bathed in it.
whereas
Closed type is in which blood is circulated through a series of vessels of varying diameter
Radial and Bilateral symmetry
Any plane passing through the central axis when divides the body into two halves:- Radial symmetry
eg. Coelentrates, ctenophores, echinoderms
whereas
When body can be divided into identical two halves in one plane only:-Bilateral symmetry
e.g Annelids, arthopods
Diploblastic & Triploblastic
Diploblastic :- animals in which cells are arranged in two embryonic
an external ectoderm
an internal endoderm
Triploblastic :- animals with a third germinal layer mesoderm
Examples of Diploblastic
Coelentrates
In diploblastic an undifferentiated layer is present in between the ectoderm and endoderm
Mesoglea
Examples of Triploblastic
Platyhelminthes to chordates
Body cavity lined with mesoderm is
Coelom
Animals with coelom
Coelomates
Examples coelomates
Annelids, arthopods, molluscs echinoderms, hemichordates, chordates
Body cavity in which mesoderm is present as scattered pouches in between the ectoderm and endoderm
Pseudocoelom
Animals with pseudocoelom are
Pseudocoelomates
Aschelminthes is a
pseudocoelomate
Animals in which body cavity is absent is
Acoelomate
Example of acoelomate is
Platyhelminthes
When body shows metameric segmentation the phenomenon is
Metamerism
Metamerism is exhibited by
Earthworm
Notochord is ______ originated
mesodermally
Notochord is present on the
Dorsal side
Animals with notochord are called
Chordates
Examples of non chordates are
Porifera to echinoderms
Member of phylum porifera are commonly called as
Sponges
Sponges habitat
Marine
Sponge symmetry
Asymmetrical
Water transport/canal system are possessed by
Sponges
Water enters in sponges thru minute pore called
Ostia
Water enters in the body wall into a central cavity called
Spongocoel
