Q

Domain Classification - Introns

A

Archaea - Eukaryotes

Introns = noncoding sections of an RNA transcript, or the DNA encoding it, that are spliced out before the RNA molecule is translated into a protein

Q

Protista

A

Domain Eukarya
Cell walls have nuclei
Widest variety of organisms (many cant be classified elsewhere)
single-celled and primitive multicelled orgs
Both - Heterotroph autotroph

Examples - ameoba, Paramecium, Euglena

Q

Fungi

A

Eukarya
Heterotrophic
Extracellular digestion (have hydrolytic enzymes)
Absorb nutrients through diffusion
Decomposers
Cell walls are made from chitin not cellulose

Examples - yeast, mold, mushrooms

A

Conebearing

17
Q

Angiosperms

A

Flowering

Monocotyledons (corn,grass)
Dicotyledons (peanuts) - two seed leaves

18
Q

Animals

A

Heterotrophic - multi cellular - eukaryotes
Most reproduce sexually
dominant diploid stage
9 phyla

19
Q

9 Animal Phyla - Prince Charles Plays Needles Among Every Child

A

Porifera - sponges
Cnidaria - jellies
Platyhelminthes - flat worms
Nematoda - Parasitic worms - hook, pin, whip
Annelida - ringed worms (segmented) - earth, rag, leeches
Echinodermata - sea stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, and sea cucumbers
Chordata - animals,fish

20
Q

Germ Layers

A

Formed by gastrulation in embryonic stage
Complex animals are triploblastic (3 layers)
Ectoderm - skin, nervous system
Endoderm - Viscera and digestive system
Mesoderm - Blood and bones

Primitive animals (sponges/hydra) diploblastic - no mesoderm

21
Q

Coelom

A

True fluid-filled body cavity
Arises withing and completely surrounded by mesoderm
Provides space for elaborate organ systems
Divided into Protostome and Deuterostome

22
Q

Acoelomate

A

Triploblastic - solid bodies
No cavity between digestive tract and outerbody wall
Platyhelmthes

23
Q

Pseudocoelomate

A

False Coelom
body cavity is partly lined by mesoderm
Nematodes (roundworms)

24
Q

Protostome Coelomate

A

Primitive
True coelom
first opening in embryo is mouth, second opening - anus

Annelids (earthworms), Mollusk, arthropods
