A

somatic embryogenesis

47

53
Q

54
Q

What class is this?

spicules made of Calcium carbonate

A

55
Q

What class is this?

spicules are straight (monoaxons) or have three or four rays

A

63
Q

are sponges monoecious or dioecious

A

monoecious

64
Q

when young sponges develop early while still attached to their parent sponge

A

vivaparous / internal fertilization

65
Q

Zygote is retained within the parent and provided with nourishment until it is released as a ciliated larva.

One sponge releases sperm which enter the pores of another sponge.

Choanocytes phagocytize (ingest) the sperm, transform into carrier cells, and transport sperm to the oocytes in the mesohyl to form zygote

A

vivaparous

66
Q

Both sperm and oocytes (egg cells) are released into water for external fertilization

A

oviparous

67
Q

The free swimming larva of most sponges is a solid-bodied –

A

Parenchymula

68
Q

A hollow […] (blastula) forms, with flagellated cells facing the inside

A

stomoblastula

69
Q

The blastula undergoes inversion, turning inside out so the flagellated cells face the outside.

The larva, called an […], has flagellated cells (micromeres) at the front and larger, non-flagellated cells (macromeres) at the back.

A

amphiblastula

70
Q

In amphiblastula, the micromeres are at the [1] while the macromeres are at the [2]

A

front (anterior)

back (posterior)

75
Q

In class Calcispongiae, all are marine except some few freshwater such as –

made up of clusters of sponge cells, mainly archaeocytes, surrounded by a tough protective layer (helps survive harsh conditions)

A

gemmules

81
Q

it is a mechanism of survival of the harsh conditions of winter

A

gemmules
