Q

bivalve features
Head
Ctenidia
Foot
Mantle

A

-head very reduced and lacks radula
-ctenidia modified for filter feeding
-produce byssal threads
-foot modified for burrowing
-mantle ofter modified into siphons

13
Q

what happens to the ligament when the adductor muscles contract

A

the valve closes and the outer part of ligament is stretched and inner part is compressed

17
Q

different types of ctenidia

A

respiratory ctenidia and filter feeding ctenidia

18
Q

what are respiratory ctenidia called

A

protobranch gills

19
Q

what are filter feeding ctenidia called

A

lamellibranch gills

20
Q

lamellibranch gills morphology

A

filaments arranged in Vs of ascending and descending arms called demibranches

21
Q

what is the mantle cavity divided into in lamellibranch gills

A

an exhalent and inhalent chamber

22
Q

what are the two types of lamellibranch gills

A

filibranch and eulamellibranch

23
Q

filibranch gills

A

adjacent gill filaments attached by tufts of cilia

24
Q

eulamellibranch gills

A

adjacent gill filaments attached by bridges of solid tissue

25
Q

which clades have protobranch gills and lamellibranch gills

A

-the basal clade protobranchia have protobranch gills
-all the other clades have lamellibranch gills.

26
Q

How do protobranch bivalves feed

A

use two pairs of large labial palps

27
Q

where are low density particles sent in protobranch

A

towards the mouth as they are likely organic

28
Q

where are high density particles sent in protobranch

A

ejected into mantle cavity

29
Q

how do lamellibranch bivalves feed

A

gills filter particles

30
Q

how do the gills in lamellibranch bivalves filter?

A

-frontolateral cilia flick particles to surface of filament.
-particles are then moved towards food groove
-then moved to palps where they are sorted

31
Q

how are particles ejected in eumellibranchs

A

they accumulate and are ejected as pseudofeces

32
Q

how do bivalves burrow

A

shell and foot act as alternating anchors

33
Q

how do byssal threads work

A

harden as is comes into contact w sea water

34
Q

how do byssal threads work in muscles

A

they are produced throughout life

35
Q

how do oysters attach themselves to substrate

A

they cement themselves

36
Q

bivalve sexes

A

seperate

37
Q

what is spawning like in marine bivalves

A

most gametes are spawned freely into water

38
Q

what is spawnign liek in freshwater bivalves

A

sperm inhaled by female and fertilization is in mantle caviry, they are brooded

39
Q

larval stages of most bivalves

A

free swimming trochophore to later veliger

40
Q

glochidia

A

larva that absorb nutrients and ride fish
fish are baited because mantle looks like fish
