Q

Movement?

A

some animals are sessile or stationary as adults such as sponges and sea anemones. they live attached to one place like the bottom of the ocean, a rock or even the shell of another animal. like most animals, sessile animals have a body form that can move during juvenile stages of development

Q

Reproduction?

A
  • most animals reproduce sexually, using gametic reproduction
  • a zygote develops into a diploid organism, and the only haploid cells are eggs and sperms
  • zygotes are produced by either external or internal fertilization
  • some can produce asexually. for example, some species, such as aphids, alternate between sexual and asexual modes, reserving sexual reproduction for when environmental conditions deteriorate and tough conditions are likely to follow (to increase genetic diversity)

A

Lampreys and Hagfish

50
Q

How do Lampreys feed?

A

The lampreys mouth is like a suction cup and they “drill” a hole into the fish then suck everything out of it making them a parasite.

51
Q

How do hagfish feed?

A

they are scavengers because they wait for fish to die before eating them and can go up to 6 months without feeding

52
Q

what is a notochord?

A

it is a flexible, rod-shaped structure found in chordate animals. during vertebrate development is is replaced by the spine. in most vertebrates animals, the notocord forms in the embryo. during the development, the nerve chord becomes the brain and spinal cord which are eventually enclosed in the skill and spine respectively. all chordate have a notocord at some point in their lives

Q

5% of all animals are in Chordata. what are the other 95%?

A

Invertebrates

A tube-shaped cord that extends along the back of the body (in the spine)
