A

about 80,000 species, mostly marine but many freshwater/terrestrial, slow-moving, relatively sedentary, shell as self-defense, cephalized head

Q

torsion process

A

changing of the position of body parts during development; go from a linear gut with gills in the back to a loopy gut with anus and gills near the mouth

pros of torsion

A

gills are anterior and can sample water, entire body can be pulled within shell

Q

impacts of torsion and coiling on Gastropod structure

A

17
Q

class of Phylum Mollusca known as Chitons

A

class Polyplacophora

18
Q

general characters of class Polyplacophora

A

about 1000 extant species, generally live in rocky intertidal zones, radula reinforced with iron

19
Q

structure of class Polyplacophora

A

dorsal shell made of 7-8 separate plates surrounded by girdle of mantle, gills surround the foot

20
Q

class of Phylum Mollusca that includes mussels, clams, oysters, and scallops

A

class Bivalvia

21
Q

general characters of Bivalves

A

about 9000 species, mostly marine, have lost cephalization and the radula, filter feeders

22
Q

method by which Bivalves combine feeding with breathing

A

suck water in through incurrent siphon and over gills, which extract oxygen and capture food particles on layer of mucus before cilia move food towards labial palps, which then direct food into the mouth

23
Q

organ in Bivalvia used primarily for digging

24
Q

muscles in Bivalvia that contract to close the shell

A

adductor muscles

25
class of Phylum Mollusca that includes, octopuses, squids, cuttlefish, and nautiluses
class Cephalopoda
26
general characters of class Cephalopoda
all very intelligent marine predators, strong beaklike jaws, mantle used for jet propulsion, many have long tentacles/arms with suckers
27
only species of class Cephalopoda with an external shell
nautiluses
28
species of class Cephalopoda where the shell rests under the mantle
cuttlefish
29
species of class Cephalopoda where the shell is a thin strip called the "pen"
squids
30
species of class Cephalopoda that has lost the shell entirely
octopuses
31
structure of circulatory system in class Cephalopoda
two branchial hearts pump deoxygenated blood to gills, systemic heart pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body
32
reproductive process of class Cephalopoda
separate sexes, no larva stage (direct development), very little parental care (except octopuses)
33
Phylum united by the trait of a molting cuticle
Phylum Ecdysozoa
34
Phylum of Ecdysozoa known as horsehair worms
Phylum Nematomorpha
35
general characters of phylum Nematomorpha
about 320 species, very long and thin, adults are free-living but all juveniles parasitize arthropods (emerge once in water)
36
Nematomorpha do/don't have sexual separation
do
37
Phylum of Ecdysozoa known as roundworms
Phylum Nematoda
38
general characters of Phylum Nematoda
estimated 1,000,000 species, about half are parasitic, live in every habitat on earth, account for 80% of individual animals on earth
39
structure of Nematodes
unsegmented, pseudocoelomate, generally small, covered in noncellular cuticle made from collagen, longitudinal muscles, simple morphology (mouth, pharynx, intestine, anus, reproductive organs), anterior nerve ring
40
free-living Nematodes generally go through ____ molts before adulthood
four
41
"model" organism of Nematoda
C. elegans
