Lab Test 3 Flashcards
characteristics of animals
- mutlicellular
- heterotrophs
- no cell wall
flagellated cells that help generate a water-current that flows through the sponge body and facilitates feeding
chaoanocytes
what do sponges have to help with feeding?
chaoanocytes
Sponges feed by
filter feeding- capture small particles from water
Example of a sponge that has calcareous spicules for structural support
Grantia
large opening at tip of sponge
osculum
small opening in sponge
ostia
large central cavity of sponge
spongocoel
How does water move through sponges?
- water drawn in through ostia
- enters spongocoel where choanocytes help it flow
- exits through osculum
What type of symmetry do Cnidarians have?
radial
Tissue in cnidarians
2 layers, endoderm and ectoderm
jelly like matrix that separates tissue layers in cnidarian
mesoglea
specialized cells that contain stinging structures in cnidarians
cnidocytes
stinging structures in cnidarians
nematocysts
what are cnidocytes used for?
capturing prey
explain what happens to prey in cnidaria
captured by cnidocytes (stung with nematocysts) and passes through mouth to gastrovascular cavity
What is common in Cnidaria?
polymorphism
What are the two forms of polymorphism in cnidaria?
sessile polyp and motile medusa
What are the three classes of Cnidaria?
- Hydrozoa
- Schyphozoa
- Anthozoa
colonial hydrozoan that alternates between the polyp and medusae stages in its life cycle
Obelia
tentacles that function as feeding polyps
gasterozoids
specialized for the production of medusae
gonozoids
describe portuguese man of war
individuals composed of many hydrozoids that specialize in feeding, reproduction, or float
jellyfish class
scyphozoa
what form is dominant in scyphozoa class?
medusa
produces immature medusae through asexual reproduction
strobilus
corals and anemones class
Anthozoa
Anthozoans only occur as
polyps
many anthozoans can build skeletons of
calcium carbonate (hard) or protein (soft)
What makes anthozoans more complex?
digestive system, gastrovascular cavity partitioned by mesenteries to increase surface area
flatworms (platyhelminthes) tissue layers
3- endoderm, ectoderm, mesoderm
flatworms (platyhelminthes) symmetry
bilateral
classes of platyhelminthes
Turbellaria, Trematoda, Cestoda
What are the parasitic classes of platyhelminthes?
trematoda and cestoda
Turbellaria
planarians
how do turbellaria move?
cilia
trematoda
flukes
what is the purpose of the suckers on flues?
allow the parasites to attach to host
trematoda are (blank)
hermaphroditic/monoecious
what are cestoda’s bodies specialized for?
absorption of nutrients from host and producing huge quantities of eggs
sections of tapeworm body
proglottids
cestoda
tapeworm
head of tapeworm
scolex
mollusk tissue and symmetry
3 layers, bilaterial
mollusca
snails, clams, squid, octopus
mollusca possess a body filled cavity called
hemoceoal
think layer of tissue that covers the visceral mass and secretes the shell
mantle
what is a organ present in all mollusca?
muscular foot
many of the internal organs in a mollusca are located in the
visceral mass
specialized feeding structure
radula
Classes of mollusca
Polyplacophora, Gastropoda, Cephalopoda, Bivalvia
Polyplacophora
chitons
chiton characteristics
live on rocks, algae with radula, attach to rock with foot, 8 part shell
gastropoda
snails, slugs
