Topic 10 Terms (Intro to Animals) Flashcards
What defines Animalia?
multicellular heterotrophs with
tissues
no cell walls
monophyletic group
How do animals reproduce?
gametic meiosis
Order of embryo development
zygote > morula > blastula > gastrula
ZM BG
diploblastic
2 cell layers in embryo
ectoderm: outer layer and nervous system
endoderm: inner layer and gut
triploblastic
3 cell layers in embryo
mesoderm: middle layer where most organs form from
4 key transitions in body plan for metazoans
- ) Radial symmetry
- ) Body cavities
- ) Protostome to deuterostome
- ) Segmented body plan
coelomate
fluid-filled cavity (coelom) in mesoderm, surrounded in mesodermal tissue
pseudocoelmate
Pseudocoel between mesoderm and endoderm
Not completely covered in mesodermal tissue, so that’s why it’s a pseudocoelomate
How protostomes develop
Spiral and determinate 8-cell stage
Mesoderm splits forming coelom
Mouth develops from blastopore
How deuterostomes develop
Radial and indeterminate 8-cell stage
Mesodermal outpocketings of archenteron form coelom
Mouth develops from secondary opening
