lecture 3 invertebrates Flashcards
three types of body symmetry
asymmetric
radial
bilateral
three types of body cavity
acoelomates
coelomates
pseudocoelomates
characteristics of acoelomates
no enclosed body cavity
characteristics of coelomates
internal cavity, organs surrounded by mesoderm
characteristics of psudocoelomates
internal cavity, organs NOT surrounded by mesoderm
“mouth develops from blastopore” protosome or deuterosomes
protosomes
“anus develops from blastopore” protosome of deuterosome
deuterosome
what are protosomes
mollusks annelids arthropods
what are deuterosomes
echinoderms, chordates
what does the phylum name porifera mean in latin
pore bearing
porifera sessile or not
sessile but with free swimming larvae
porifera true organ/tissues or not
not
porifera type of symettry
asymetric (some radial)
porifera sex?
mostly hermaphrodites
what does the phylum cnidaria mean in latin
stinging
cnida = nettle
cnidaria sessile or not
two forms sessile polyps & mobile medusae
cnidaria symmetry type
radial
cnidaria (a)coelomates?
Acoelomates
how many cell layers do cnidaria have and what are they
Two cell layers: epidermis & gastrodermis`
cnidaria sex
polyps = asexual medusae = reproduction
cnidaria special feature
stinging cells called cnidocytes
what are the three classes of cnidaria
hydrozoa
scyphozoa & cubozoa
anthozoa
what does the phylum platyhelminthes mean in latin
flat worms
some example species in platyhelminthes
flatworms
flukes
tapeworms
platyhelminthes symmetry type
bilateral
are platyhelminthes (a)coelomates
acoelomates
platyhelminthes digestion system what is it like
simple mouth, no anus
what is the third cell layer that pltyhelminthes has
parenchyma
platyhelminthes sex?
hermaphrodites sexualy reproducing
four classes of platyhelminthes
tubellaria
trematoda
cestoda
monogenea
adaptations to parasitic life: size?
small, flat, cylindrical
adaptations to parasitic life: attachment organs
they have them
adaptations to respiration
anaerobic
adaptations to parasitic lif: reproduction
asexual
Possible advantages of infecting secondary & tertiary hosts
increased reproductive potential
increased range of the parasite in space and time
intermediate host can promote infection of definitive host
what are all animals
multicellular (no cell wall), mobile, heterotrophic, w/ specialised cells organised into tissues
what are animal groups characterised by
their body plans & development (which reflect ancestry)
what are the oldest group of animals
porifera
lacking true tissues, organs or symmetry
which groups are acoelomates
Cnidaria (sting cells, radial symm) & Platyhelminthes (flatworms, bilateral symm)
