molluscs
snails, oysters, squid; muscular foot, visceral mass, mantle
32
mollusc visceral mass
contains most of the internal organs

mollusc mantle
tissue that drapes over the visceral mass and could secrete a shell
34
gastropod torsion
visceral mass rotates and animals anus wind up above head
35
cephalopod
active predators of octopus, squid
36
annelid
earthworm; cerebral ganglia, closed circulatory system

crustaceans, spiders, insects; segmented coelomates, exoskeleton, jointed appendages
39
arthropod cuticle
exoskeleton constructed from layers of protein and polysaccharide chitin
40
open circulatory system
many molluscs and arthropods, fluid called hemolymph pumped through heart through arteries to sinuses surrounding organs
41
decapods
curstacean arthropods of lobster, shrimp
42
deuterostomes
echinoderm (sea star) and chordates
43
chordates
notochord and dorsal, hollow nerve cord
44
tunicates
posses a notochord, stationary

monotremes
mammals that lay eggs, have hair and produce milk secreted through glands
58
marsupials
give birth to live young with placenta and grows up in outer pouch very young
59
eutherian
commonly called placental mammals because placentas are more complex than marsupials
