Q

Lab 13 Phylum Arthropoda: (Subphylum Uniramia) what is the difference between Class Diplopoda & Class Chilopoda?

A
  • Class Diplopoda: have 2 or more pairs of legs
  • Class Chilopoda: single pair of legs
18
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: what is embryology?

A

embryology is the study of early development in phases of plants and animals

19
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: what is the difference between an embryo and a fetus?

A
  • embryo: any stage after the egg becomes fertilized but before the developing organism takes it’s adult form
  • fetus: any stage past the embryo stage but before birth or hatching
20
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: what is the name of the cell that produces an egg?

A

the name of the cells that produces an egg is called an oocyte

21
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: which endocrine gland produces a hormone that stimulates an egg to mature?

A
  • the endocrine gland that produces the hormone to stimulate egg maturity is the pituitary gland
  • the hormone that stimulates egg maturity is follicle stimulating hormone
22
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: where does the corpus luteum form and what hormones does it produce?

A
  • the corpus luteum is formed in the ovary
  • the hormones it produces is estrogen and progesterone
23
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: is a follicle the same thing as an oocyte?

A

no, an oocyte is a premature egg cell and a follicle is a more mature egg that’s bigger and has a spherical mass of cells

24
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: where are sperm produced?

A

sperm is produced in the seminiferous tubules inside the testes

25
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: where is sperm stored?

A

sperm is stored in the epididymis

26
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: sperm produces an enzyme. What function does that enzyme have? Where in the sperm is that enzyme located?

A
  • the enzyme separates the follicle layer from the egg
  • in the acrosome, the head of the sperm
27
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: if only one sperm is necessary to fertilize the egg, then what function is served by all of the other sperm?

A

to separate the follicle layer from the egg and increase chances of feralization

28
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: List the three methods for feeding early embryos by different organisms.

A
  1. invertebrates feed fast, pass nutrients through cytoplasm and soon after offspring feed themselves
  2. some animals such as fish and birds get nutrients from the egg yolk
  3. humans pass nutrients through the placenta
29
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: why do more complex animals require more specialized embryonic feeding mechanisms?

A

more complex animals require more development

30
Q

Lab 3 Embryology: what are the differences seen in a 21 hour chick embryo in comparison to the 28 hour embryo?

A
  • the 21 hour chick embryo looks like a cell with a wiggly line going through it vertically
  • the 28 hour chick embryo has more details to it, more developed spine and development of the beak is seen
31
Q

Lab 14 Phylum Echinodermata: what are the echinoderm autapomorphies?

A
  1. symmetry of larval stage
  2. internal calcium skeleton
  3. water vascular systems
  4. non- moveable feet
32
Q

Q

Lab 14 Phylum Echinodermata: how to tube feet work? ( Class Asteroidea )

A
  • how sea stars do locomotion

Q

Lab 14 Phylum Echinodermata: what is the ambulacral groove ? ( Class Asteroidea )

A
