Q

Endoderm

A

Inner layer of tissue in the gastrula, gives rise to most of the digestive system and multiple internal organs.

17
Q

Eumetazoa

A

Organisms with true tissues.

Tissue organization requires major organizational, genetic, and developmental process.

18
Q

Lophotrochozoa

A

A clade of organisms that share one of two characteristics.

  1. Lophophore(whorl of tentacles) mouthpart
  2. Trochophore(ciliated, planktonic) larval stage.
19
Q

Mesoderm

A

The layer of germ tissue that fills the space between ectoderm and endoderm.

In triploblastic animals, the mesoderm gives rise to muscles and organs in between the endoderm and ectoderm.

20
Q

Mollusca

A

Diverse Phylum of 93,000 species. All have a large cavity used for breathing and excretion and lined with a tissue(“mantle”), and 2 or 3 nerve chords.

Major Classes:

  • gastropods(snails, slugs)
  • bivalves(clams, mussels)
  • Cephalopoda(squids, octopuses)
21
Q

Nematoda

A

small, narrow worms. >80,000 species.

1/5 are parasitic

Complete gut, longitudinal muscles only

22
Q

A

A type of Asexual reproduction in which females produce offspring from unfertilized eggs.

23
Q

Platyhelminthes

A

Acoelomate phylum of 20,000 species without circulatory or respiratory organs.

Many important human and animal parasites.

Parasitic classes:

  • Cestoda(tapeworms)
  • Trematoda(flukes)
  • Monogenea

Non-parasitic groups are in Turbellaria(genus Planaria)

24
Q

Lack true tissues but instead are composed of different cell types.

Phylogeny under debate.

Monophyletic or paraphyletic.

25
Q

Protostomia

A

A mode of development of the digestive system during which the mouth forms first(anus second).

26
Q

Pseudocoelomate

A

A body plan with a body cavity that is not membrane-lined by mesoderm tissue.

27
Q

Radial Symmetry

A

like an apple pie.

The organism can be cut in half from any direction to obtain two matching halfs.

Jellyfish.

28

Phylum of tiny aquatic pseudocoelomates with cilia surround the mouth that appear to rotate when beating.

2,000 species divided into two main groups with diverse shapes.
