Bivalves; oldest part of the shell

14
Q

Radula

A

Mollusca (except bivalves); “tongue” that scrapes material, acts as conveyor belt to move food towards stomache

Tracheal system

A

System of tube involved in insect respiration

24
Q

Podia

A

Enchinodermata, tube feet

25
Q

Ampulla

A

Enchinodermata - muscle sack that hold fluid above the podium, creates a “suction cup”

26
Q

A

Asteroidea - specialized connective tissue. Can be controlled by nervous system to change from “liquid” to “solid”

28
Q

Pedicellarie

A

Pincer-like jaws controlled by muscles, keep body surface free of debris

29
Q

Papulae

A

Asteroidea - small projects of coelomic cavity that extend through ossicles. Aids in gas exchange

30
Q

Chorodates, flexible but stiff tissue, becomes vertebrae in most vertebrates

31
Q

Dorsal Nerve Cord

A

Chordates - anterior ends enlarges to from brain. In vertebrates brain protected in bone/cartilage cranium

32
Q

Pharyngeal pouches and slits

A

Chordates - slits lead from pharyngeal cavity to outside. In fish - makes up internal gills. In humans - make-up part of the middle ear, ear drum, tonsils, etc.
