Unit 2: Lesson 13- Annelids, Mollusks, and Echinoderms Flashcards
Phylum Annelida
Closed circulatory system, segmented worms, each segment has pair of setae (hairs)
Class Polychaeta (Phylum Annelida)
Bristle/tube worms, parapodia contains setae
Class Clitellata (Phylum Annelida)
Earthworms and leeches, has clitellum (reproductive unit)
Subclass Oligochaeta- earthworm, decomposer, eat dirt, benefit plants
Subclass Hirudinea- Leeches, predator/parasite, anesthetic and hirudin (anticoagulant) in saliva
Ectoprocta (lophophore)
Sessile, colony, made of chitin
Brachiopoda (lophophore)
Sessile, 2 shell halves, hide lophophore structure
Phylum Mollusca
Bilateral, triploblastic, coelomate, open gut, soft-bodied, gills, 3 part body plan (muscular foot, mantle/shell, visceral mass), “lungs”
Class Polyplacophora (Phylum Mollusca)
Chitons, 8 dorsal plates, grazers
Class Gastropoda (Phylum Mollusca)
“stomach foot”, slugs/snails, 2 eye stalk tentacles, predators/grazers, 180 rotation of visceral mass along foot (torsion)
Class Bivalva (Phylum Mollusca)
2 shell halves cover visceral mass, filter feeders (use siphons to feed), clams, muscles, oysters, scallops, parasitic glochidia larvae drink blood and live in fish gills (helps them to spread out since adults aren’t very mobile)
Class Scaphopoda (Phylum Mollusca)
“tusk foot”, use siphons in a tubular shell
Class Cephalopoda (Phylum Mollusca)
“head foot”, big brain, foot modified into tentacles, no shell (mostly), predators, have beak
Phylum Echinodermata (Deuterostomia)
Bilateral, 5 rows of tube feet, triploblastic, coelomate, open gut, skin made of CaCO3, water vascular system
Class Asteroidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Sea stars, tube feet help with mobility, predators of clams
Class Ophiuroidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Brittle stars, scavengers, thin arms around central disk body
Class Echinoidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Sand dollars, sea urchin, eat algae with mouth called Aristotle’s Lantern
Class Crinoidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Sea lily (extinct), feather star, filter feeders
Class Holothuroidea (Phylum Echinodermata)
Sea cucumbers, elongated body, filter feeder
