Test 2 Flashcards
Community succession
periodic change in the assemblage of species in a Community
who makes up the pioneer community
generalist
true of false generalist change the environment
true
who makes up the intermediate community
- few generalist
- more specialist
true or false specialists in an intermediate community don’t change the environment
false
who makes up the climax Community
specialist
true or false specialists in an climax community don’t change the environment
true
what is it called when an environment gets destroyed and goes back to intermediate Community
secondary succession
what has lead due to the abandoning of Kingdom Protista
supergroups
what supergroup has a groove along 1 side
supergroup Excavata
ex of supergroup Excavata
Euglena
what supergroup is flagellated, photosynthetic, similar chloroplasts
supergroup Archaeplastida
synapomorphy of supergroup archaeplastida
similar chloroplast
ex of supergroup archaeplastida
Volvox
what supergroup has amebae, fungi, slime molds, animals
supergroup Unikonta
synapomorphy of supergroup Unikonta
genetic evidence
synapomorphy of supergroup SAR

hypotheses of generation of multicellularity
STUDY
asymmetry
no plane of symmetry
what kind of symmetry is not designed to move
asymmetry
what symmetry has body parts arranged around a central axis and is designed to move all directions poorly
radial
bilateral symmetry
line divides into equal left and right sides
what kind of symmetry is designed to move forward well
bilateral symmetry
Divides dorsal and ventral
frontal plane
transverse plane
divides into anterior (forward) and posterior (butt)
Divides into left and right
sagittal plane
medial
closer to the midsagital
farther away from midsagital
lateral
distal
farther from where arm attaches
closer to where arm attaches
proximal
endoderm
gastrodermis, mesoglea (non-living)
ectoderm
epidermis
what layers are in diploblastic
endoderm and ectoderm
what layers are in triploblastic
endoderm
ectoderm
mesoderm
no space between gut and body wall
Acoelomate
pseudocoelomate
space between gut and body wall not derived from mesoderm
space between gut and body wall is mesodermally derived
coelomat
advantages of a coelom
- surface area internal organs
- room for stored energy
- room for consumed items
- hydrostatic skeleton
- room for evolutionary “tinkering”
- increase in overall body size
paraphyletic group
not all extant forms but includes common ancestor
Plesiomorphy
ancestral characteristics
