Q

What does Thomas Eisner said about arthropods?

A

Arthropods (Bugs) are not going to inherit earth ๐ŸŒŽ, they own it now.
So we might as well make piece with landlord.

Q

Clade panarthropoda?

A

Pan = all over.
Another name for this clade is Clade Ecdysozoa, (they undergo ecdysis), and shed their exoskeleton, nematodes also shed their cuticle.
This clade contains arthropoda, and two allied phylum
Onychophora and Tardigrada.

Q

Explain the segments of arthropods?

A

They have the following segmentations,
Targa:- dorsal plates on the back of the animal ๐Ÿฆ” .
Sternum :- (bone plates, where ribs are attached) ventral plates on the front of the Animal.
Human have sternum (only one) not sterna.
Cuticle = is on top of the exoskeleton;- epicuticle means top waxy layer.
Exoskeleton which is made up of chitin, and protein.
Chitins;- are in rods surrounded dead by protein molecules.
Exocutilce becomes sclerotized (it becomes tanned or dark)
Epidermis (the top layer)
Pores ;- can be found in exoskeleton.
Seta in arthropods are different than annelids.

Q

What is the importance of exoskeleton?

A

๐Ÿ›‘ Hardened exoskeleton offers more protection against predators and environmental hazards.
๐Ÿ›‘ Provide more secure site for muscle attachments.
๐Ÿ›‘ Allowed adjacent segments and joints to function as levers to greatly improve locomotion and flight.
๐Ÿ›‘ It is suite of Armor.

Q

What digest away the protein molecules (chitin)

A

Epidermis secretes protease and chitinase, thes two enzymes digest away the protein and chitin, so animal can get rid of exoskeleton and then the new one can grow back.
So, when the animal got rid of exoskeleton then they are so soft they can expose to predators. But it will soon grow back.

54
Q

Name of the arthropods who first move to land?

A

Class Arachnida.
So, all of the arthropods were originated in the sea, then they came to land, and since the was no predator, and ample food all over then they went to adaptive radiation and then they flourished on earth and they learned to fly.

59
Q

Chelicera have what?

A

Chelicerae have fangs and these fangs have duct inside that goes into poisonous gland, and then when animal see something that he would like to eat then they go head and Pearce the fangs into the animal and paralyze them and when the animal is paralyzed or dead then they go ahead use their pedipalps and bring the prey to the mouth and then they use their chelicerae and they suck the good things form animals.

Q

Order Aranea?

A

Tarantula Spiders
All spiders are carnivorous.
Male always smaller then female.
Cephalothorax (prosoma)
Abdomen (opisthosoma)
Cephalothorax and abdomen are not segmented that is why they call them prosoma and opisthosoma.
Pedicel
Chelicerae have fangs and it have poison glands
Pedipalps have 4 walking legs.
Malpighian tubules.
Book lungs and trachea or both.
Spiracles.
Coxal glands
Ocelli

Sensing vibration of its web.
Silk gland for web spinning.
Not all spiders make web for trapping their prey ex;- (wolf spider, jumping spider, fisher spider,

62
Q

A

Thatโ€™s where cephalothorax and abdomen are connected together.

63
Q

Malpighian tubules in order Aranea?

A

They are structures in the posterior end of the animal and they are used to absorb water and minerals.

64
Q

Spiracles in order Aranea?

A

Spiraceles are the opening for respiration.
Their spiracles are naked but grasshopper spiracles are covered.

65
Q

Coxal gland in order Aranea?

A

It eliminates wastes through pores, and they are at the base of legs.

66

Have 8 simple eyes, lens , optic rods and Retina.
But they cannot form image only can see light intensity.

67
Q

Two types of Venom in order Aranea?

A

Neurotox ;- when it is realeased it go and stop neurotransmitters, then try neurotransmitters canโ€™t go from one neuron to the next one then the animal become paralyzed.
Hemolytic ;- when it is released it breaks down red blood cell of the animal, when the red blood cell are broken down then oxygen cannot be transported, food cannot be transported and the animal dies.

68
Q

Most venoms in nature are what?

They live all over on planet earth ๐ŸŒ,
Complete fusion of cephalothorax and abdomen (head and abdomen is just one big bulk).
Mouth parts are on capitulum.
Chlecirae for piercing, tearing and gripping food.

females brood their youngโ€™s within their reproductive tract.

73
Q

Scientific and common name for order Acari?

A

Trimbicula is red bug cause Chiggers disease, and chigger dermatitis (inflammation of skin) (transmission of pathogens)
Demodex it is cigar shaped.
50 % of population have Demodex.
Demodex can live in eyelashes and do not bother human.
But in animals it cause mange in animals, which can cause death in dogs and cat.

Also found in Hair follicle.

74
Q

What is another organism?

A

Sarcoptes Scabiei,
It can cause intense itching and it is skin parasite.

Ixodes is Hard ticks
These are Lyme disease which is Borrelia Burgdorferi.

75
Q

Lyme disease?

A

There is a city by the name of Lyme in their they noticed People with Lyme disease have heart problem but later they develop Arthritis,
Then they found out that they had this bacteria (Borrelia burgdorferi) which cause the heart problem and last theyโ€™re develop Arthritis
And when they put the people on antibiotics most of the problems went away.

And that bacteria (Borrelia burgdorferi) came from ticks (Ixodes) because the city was sororiunded by good amount of deers,
Tickets would suck blood from ๐ŸฆŒ deer and then those ticks would attach to human neck (because neck is their favorite part) and while sucking blood from human neck they put the bacteria inside human, and human become infected.
Capiticulum is the mouth part which can stuck to human skin, so when you remove the tick you should also remove the capiticulum. We should put the lighter or alchohol so mouth part can also come out.

76
Q

Rocky mounted spotty fever?

A

Dermacentor,
It can cause Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Tularemia,
This disease is not as bad as Lyme disease.

77
Q

Red water fever?

A

Boophilus Annulatus
Is Babesia which cause babesiosis Texas cattle fever or red water fever
It is a protozoan in cattle and when the animal is infected and when they are urinating they can release infection and o5er cow can also get it.
Human also get Babesia
In human doctors can think itโ€™s Malaria but this is not as bad as Malaria.

78
Q

Are spiders dangerous?

A

Most people fear ๐Ÿ˜ฐ spiders Without good reason,
Spiders are timid creator who are Allies of humans in our battle against insects ๐Ÿž pest.

79
Q

American tarantulas?

A

Can get large but rarely bite and their bite is not dangerous.

80
Q
