What are the anatomical terms for front/back?
Anterior and Posterior
E.g. the toes are anterior to the heel, and the popliteus is posterior to the patella
What are the anatomical terms for position above/below another part of the body?
Superior and Inferior
E.g. the orbits are superior to the oris, and the pelvis is inferior to the abdomen.
What are the anatomical terms for position closer or further fr the trunk of the body?
Proximal and Distal
E.g. the shoulder is proximal to the arm, and the foot is distal to the knee.
What are the anatomical terms for position closer or further fr the surface of the body?
Superficial and Deep
E.g. the skin is superficial to the bones, and the brain is deep to the skull.
Sometimes profound is used synonymously w deep.
What are the anatomical terms for position closer or further fr the midline of the body?
Medial and Lateral
E.g. the nose is medial to the eyes, and the thumb is lateral to the other fingers.
What are the anatomical terms for structures derived fr the front or back of the embryo, before limb rotation?
Ventral and Dorsal
What are the anatomical terms for structures close to the top of the skull or towards the bottom of the body?
Cranial and Caudal
How does the saggital plane divide a structure?
Vertically, into right and left sides
- Midsagittal or median - directly down middle.
- Parasagittal or longitudinal - uneven sides.
How does the frontal plane divide a structure?
Anterior (front) and Posterior (back) portions
- Frontal plane often referred to as coronal
How does the transverse plane divide a structure?
Horizontally, into upper and lower portions
- Produce cross-sections.
The earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris) belongs to a group of animals called _______, aka the _________ worms.
The earthworm (Lumbricus terrestris) belongs to a group of animals called annelids, aka segmented worms.
Which side of the worm is the rounded top, and which side is the flattened bottom?
Dorsal - rounded top
Ventral - flattened bottom
The _______ is a saddle-like swelling on the dorsal surface that extends from segment 33 to segment 37.
The clitellum is a saddle-like swelling on the dorsal surface that extends from segment 33 to segment 37.
What is the fxn of the clitellum for reproduction?
Produces a mucus sheath used to surround the worms during mating
Also resp for making the cocoon w/i wh fertilized eggs are deposited.
The worm’s ______ are the tiny bristle-like spines located on every segment except the first and last one.
The worm’s setae are the tiny bristle-like spines located on every segment except the first and last one.
- Used for locomotion
The clitellum is nearer the anterior or posterior end?
Anterior
The _______ is a fleshy lobe that extends over the mouth, wh is located on the ______ (ventral or dorsal) surface of the first segment.
The prostomium (lip) is a fleshy lobe that extends over the mouth, wh is located on the ventral surface of the first segment.
The worm’s reprod sys consists of a pair of __________, wh extend fr the clitellum to about segment 15, where a pair of ____ (fe/male) genital pores are located.
A pair of ____ (fe/male) gential pores are also located at segment 14, and the two pairs of openings of the _______ receptacles are located on segment 10.
The worm’s reprod sys consists of a pair of sperm grooves, wh extend fr the clitellum to about segment 15, where a pair of male genital pores are located.
A pair of female genital pores are also located at segment 14, and the two pairs of openings of the seminal receptacles are located on segment 10.
A worm’s male genital pores can be found at which segments?
Segments 15 and 26
Sperm grooves extend fr clitellum to segment 15
A worm’s female genital pores are found at which segment?
Segment 14
In worms, eggs are produced in the ______ and pass out of the body thru female genital pores at segment ___. Sperms are produced in the _____ and pass thru tiny male genital pores at segments __ and __.
In worms, eggs are produced in the ovaries and pass out of the body thru female genital pores at segment 14. Sperms are produced in the testes and pass thru tiny male genital pores at segments 15 and 26.
Describe worm mating and fertilization.
- Two worms line up against one/an, facing opp directions.
- Both worms excrete mucus, forming a slime tube around their bodies.
- Both worms ejaculate sperm into slime tube, then sperm is deposited in other worm’s sperm receptacle.
- As ea travels fwd, mucus fr clitellum passes over and sticks to the sacs containing the worm’s own eggs.
- Eggs then pass over seminal receptacle, where the other worm’s sperm is kept, and fertilization occurs outside the body.
Does worm fertilization occur inside or outside the body?
Outside
In worms, the ____ are thin-membranes that conn the integument to internal structures.
In worms, the septa are thin-membranes that conn the integument to internal structures.
Describe the circulatory system of worms.
Five pairs of aortic arches (hearts)
Circulatory fluid travels fr arches thru ventral blood vessels to capillary beds in the body.
Fluids collect in dorsal BV and reenter aortic arches.
Worm digestive system: muscular _____ is located at anterior end and used for food ingestion → tube-like ________, wh terminates in a soft, thin storage stomach called the ______.
Next is the muscular _______, where soil is ground up and churned → opens into a long ______, where both digestion and absorption occur.
Worm digestive system: muscular pharynx (S1-6) is located at anterior end and used for food ingestion → tube-like esophagus (S6-13), wh terminates in a soft, thin storage stomach called the crop (S14-15).
Next is the muscular gizzard (S16-18), where soil is ground up and churned → opens into a long intestine (S19+), where both digestion and absorption occur.
Worm nervous system consists of the _________, wh travels the length of the worm on the ventral side, and a series of ________, wh are masses of tissue containing many nerve cells.
The ________ surrounds the pharynx and consists of nerve cells above and below the pharynx.
Ea segment contains an enlargement, or ______, along the nerve cord.
Worm nervous system consists of the ventral nerve cord, wh travels the length of the worm on the ventral side, and a series of ganglia, wh are masses of tissue containing many nerve cells.
The nerve collar surrounds the pharynx and consists of ganglia above and below the pharynx.
Ea segment contains an enlargement, or ganglion, along the ventral nerve cord.
