Q

What is the Mesoglea?

A

It is the space present in between the epidermis and Gastrodermis.

22
Q

What does Diploblastic mean?

A

It has 2 germ layers.

23
Q

What are the larva stages of the lophotrochozoa?

A

Lophophore and Trochophore; they have cilia to feed/move.

24
Q

What is a key characteristic present in lophotrochozoa?

A

Protostome development.

25
Q

Define Blastula

A

It is a ball of cells.

26
Q

Define Blastocoel

A

It is the empty space in the blastula.

27
Q

Define Gastrulation

A

Some cells die/divide to form this outside/inside layer; gastrulation is the process mentioned above to make an invagination.

28
Q

What happens in the Endoderm of the Gastrula?

A

Formation of internal structures.

29
Q

What happens in the ectoderm of the gastrula?

A

Formation of outside structures.

30
Q

Are Protostomes and Deuterostomes diploblastic or triploblastic?

A

BOTH ARE TRIPLOBLASTIC

31
Q

What is characteristic of the Eight-Cell stage in protostomes?

A

Spiral and Determinate (determinate meaning that the embryo cannot change its developmental plan)

32
Q

What is characteristic of the Eight-Cell stage in deuterostomes?

A

Radial and Indeterminate (indeterminate meaning that the embryo can change its developmental plans)

33
Q

In protostomes, how is the coelom formed?

A

Solid masses of mesoderm split and form the coelom.

34
Q

In deuterostomes, how is the coelom formed?

A

From the folds of archenteron.

35
Q

What happens in terms of development of the mouth and anus in the protostomes and deuterostomes respectively?

A

In protostomes, the blastophore becomes mouth (mouth develops first and then anus develops); in deuterostomes, the blastophore becomes the anus (the anus develops first and then the mouth)

36
Q

What are some characteristics of Lophotrochozoans?

A

They are highly diverse; flat bodies are only a few cells thick.

37
Q

What are some phyla included in the lophotrochozoans?

A

Platyhelminths, Molluscs, Cephalopods, Annelids. (PMCA)

38
Q

What is an example of platyhelminths? What is the purpose of the flatness of the example’s body?

A

Flat worms; flatness allows for appropriate gas exchange.

39
Q

Where do Gastropods and Bivalves reside?

A

In shells.

40
Q

Define Cephalopods; what are some examples?

A

They are shell-less and predatory molluscs. Examples are squid and octopus.

41
Q

What are some examples of molluscs?

A

Gastropods and Bivalves.

42
Q

Define Annelids

A

Segmented worms.

43
Q

What are some examples of Annelids?

A

Leech, Tubeworm.

44
Q

What are the phyla included in the Ecdysozoa group?

A

Nematoda and Arthropoda ENA

45
Q

What is a key feature that organisms in the Ecdysozoa phylum have?

A

Ecdysis, which is molting (exiting their exoskeleton to grow).

46
Q

What phyla has the most diverse species?

A

Arthropoda.

47
Q

What can be said about the place of residence of Crustaceans?

A

They are bound to freshwater.

48
Q

What is a prime example of a Nematoda?

A

C. Elegans

49
Q

In the deuterostomia phylum, what enables for rapid locomotion?

A

BILATERAL Symmetry

50
Q

What type of symmetry do echinoderms have? What about their larvae?

A

Echinoderms have radial symmetry; their larvae are bilaterally symmetrical.
