Phyla in Metazoa

A

Cnidaria- coelenterates

Mollusca-

Platyhelminthes- flatworms

Nematoda- round worms

Arthropoda

Echinodermata

29

  • single ceulom called ENTERON
  • mouth surrounded by tentacles
  • tissue level of organisation
  • radial symmetry
  • sedentary or free swimmers
  • asexual by budding
30
Q

Nematocysts in Cnidaria serve for

A

Defense and capture, found on tentacles.

31
Q

The single ceolom in Cnidaria is

A

ENTERON for ingestion and digestion

32
Q

Polymorphism is exhibited by

A

Cnidaria

33
Q

What forms do Cnidaria show in polymorphism?

A

Hydroid(polyp)

Medusoid

34
Q

The medusoid in Cnidaria are

A

Free swimming

35
Q

The hydroids (polyp) forms in Cnidaria are

A

Sedentary/ solitary/ colonial

36
Q

The 3 classes under Cnidaria are

A

Hydrozoa

Schyphozoa

Anthozoa

37
Q

Xtics of class hydrozoa

A
  • polyp(hydroid) and medusoid forms present
  • hydroid is predominant, Medusa the simplest stage
  • reproduction by alternation of asexual and sexual phases
38
Q

Examples of class hydrozoa.

A

Hydra, Physalia (Portuguese man of war)

39
Q

Xtics of class scyphozoa

A

Nematocysts in the ectoderm

No gullet

Exclusively marine

Hydroid stage often absent or reduced to small larvae, gives rise to Medusa by TRANSVERSE FISSION

40
Q

Examples of class scyphozoa

A

Aurelia ( jellyfish)

Pelagia

41
Q

Xtics of class Anthozoa

A

Exclusively marine

Largest class in Cnidaria

Only polyps/ hydroids occur

Nematocysts in endoderm

42
Q

Examples of class Anthozoa

A

Actinia- sea anemone

Astrangia- coral
