Module 1 Flashcards
Pelagic vs benthic
Open water va the bottom
Photic zone vs aphotic zone
Sunlight vs no sunlight
Neurotic vs oceanic
Close to shore vs far from shore
Supralittoral vs littoral vs sublittoral
Rarely submerged vs between highest and lowest tides vs always submerged
Planktonic
Rely on the water column to move
How do habitats vary by climate
Temperature, precipitation, elevation, pressure, wind, humidity, latitude
What are the two types of digestion
Extra cellular and intracellular
Four types of feeding:
Filter, fluid, deposit, bulk
Extracellular digestion
Digest food outside cells
Intracellular Digestion
Most invertabrets have an alimentary canal, gastrovascular cavity
Ammonotelic
Secrete soluble ammonia
Uricotelic
Secrete Uric acid
Circulation in invertebrates
Closed or open, open usually has hemolymph
7ways of respirating
Gills, book gills, book lungs, pseudotracheae, trachea, pneumostome, ctenidium
Different times of locomotion
Jet propulsion, walking, flapping, paddling, flying, pedal, persistatic waves, undulation, flexing
Examples of asexual reproduction
Budding, regeneration, parenthogenesis
R selected species
Produce more gametes, released into environment,
Acoelomate
Lack of a body cavity
Larvae
Find ideal habitats, more motile, can have symbiotic relationships
Homology
Trait present in common ancestor
Analogy
Traits that are not due to common ancestor, result of convergent evolution
