cuttlefish

27
Q

What is unique about sepiida?

A

Internalized shell called cuttlebone which is porus (holds gas in air pockets) to float
Eyes are simular to vertibrates

28

Lost the cuttlebone

Houses bioluminesent bacteria which makes it glow

30

What is another name for Teuthida?

A

Squid

31
Q

What is unique about Teuthida?

A

Shell is internalized and is made of chitin instead of calcium carbonate
largest cephalopoda
moves fast so it is most preditory
feeds on fish

32

Q

What animals make up the Bivaliva class?

A
clams
mussels
scalops
oyster
ship worm
34

37
Q

What is unique about monoplacoploara?

A

1 plated plated shell

38
Q

What is adaptive radiation?

A

When you have a founder group splits into subversions of itself so it can radiate into different enviorments

39
Q

What does the radula scrape up?

A

bacteria on the ocean floor

dead mollusks

40
Q

Where does the aplacophora, polyplaccophora and monoplacophora live?

A

Burrowed into the deep sea floor

41
Q

Where do the bivalvias live?

A

Underneath the surfce or just on the surface

42
Q

Where do the gastropods live?

A

Surface of the bottom of the ocean

43
Q

Where do the Nautilus live and why?

A

They swim throughout the ocean

They achieved boyancy

44
Q

What are the two types of adaptive radiation theories?

A

Phyletic gradualism

Punctuated equilibrium

45
Q

What is Phyletic gradualism?

A

New species arise by transformation of large ansectoral group
Transformation occurs over a large part of ancestoral species geographic range
Transformation is even and slow
Evolution comes at same rate

46
Q

What is Punctuated equilibrium?

A

A trait becomes rapidally dominate almost overnight by splitting cladogensis
Originates in a small part of geographic range
Developed rapidally
Happens quick then reaches equilibrium

47
Q

What are stem roots?

A

Included all the extinct species

48
Q

What are the crown root?

A

Includes all the living species

49
Q

What were the early mollusks and why did they go extinct?

A

A, Poly, Mono Placophora

Modern Mollusks were stealing all their food

50
