Q

SEQ early embryonic development

A
  1. Start with diploid zygote
  2. Through cleavage, enter the eight-cell stage (zygote is mitotically dividing without growth)
  3. From eight cell-stage, cleavage again and blastulation to form blastula. Blastula is a hollow ball of cells around blastocoel (blastocoel does not become anything).
  4. Process of gastrulation (inward folding of blastula) is the last step. Gastrula and germ layers are formed as a result.

Q

Explain Coelom Evolutionary history

A

True coelom ancestral to pseudocoelom and acoelom. Pseudocoelom and acoelom are derived traits.

25
Q

Advantages of Coelom

A

Circulation- no longer need to be flat, hydrostatic skeleton- support and movement

26
Q

3 Characteristics of classifying by body plan

A
  • Symmetry
  • Embryonic tissue layers
  • Body cavity
27
Q

Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes

A

Protostomes: (Ancestral). Spiral and determinate cleavage. Spiral (cells rotate as they divide) and determinate (set developmental fate from the beginning). The blastopore becomes the mouth, known as first mouth, protostomes develop the mouth first and the anus later in development.

Deuterostomes: (Derived). Radial and indeterminate cleavage. Radial (cells are aligned rather than rotated) and indeterminate (not locked into developmental fate). The blastopore becomes the anus, deuterostomes are known as second mouth, the mouth develops later in development.

Not positive about which was ancestral and which was derived, hypothesis

28
Q

What are the three defining characteristics that separate protostomes and deuterostomes (bilateria)

A
  1. Type of cleavage
  2. Coelom development
  3. Fate of blastopore
