25
names of the rigid plates in exoskeleton
plates called sclerites. dorsal = tergite. ventral = sternite lateral = pleurite
26
3 main layers of exosksleton
epicuticle - moulted exocuticle - moutled endocuticle - resorbed
27
moulting controlled by ?
ecdysone
28
process of moutling
epidermis separates from endocuticle. inactive moulting fluid secreted by epidermis to digest old cuticle. endocuticle resorbed. new cuticle deposited beneath protective later. starts out wrinkled. moulting fluid resorbed, epicuticle laid down, old cuticle moutled, ecdysis = animal swallows air to split old skin. new cuticle expands & gets sclerotized.
29
arthropod limbs - each segment of limb called? - project medially vs laterally
- article. medially = endites laterally = exited biramous vs uniramous
30
limbs - phyllopodous vs stenopodous
phyllo - flattened, flap-like | steno - tubular, walking
31
infoldings of the cuticle that muscles attach to
apodemes
32
arthropod coelom
intra lecithal cleavage. panarthropoda coelom reduced and limited to gonads and excretory system.
33
arthropod gas exchange
aquatic: lmb-branch gills; book gills. terrestrial: spriacle, trahea, tracheloes = air-filled tubes. or book lungs
34
arthropod NS
ventral nerve cord. dorsal brain, sircumesophageal connectives. 2/3 lobed brain. libe 1 = innervte eyes. lobe 2: innervate first antenna/chelicera
35
arthropod eyes
ommatidia - multiple cells per ommatidium, light-sensitive.
36
light adapted aka? | dark adapted aka?
light adapted = apposition eyes - light entering doesnt leak into adjacent ommatidia. = bright light dark adapted = superposition. leakage btw adjacent ommatidia = low light.
37
eyes composed of a single lens?
ocelli. - detect intensity and direction of light.
38
subphylumm trilobita
all extint. marine. 3 lobed body with antennae, compound eyes, biramous limbs - coxal endites were often spiny. food processing between gnathobases. detrivorous/predatory.. large eyes
39
crustacean - non-hexapod pancrustaceans.
5 pairs of appendages on head. 2 antennae, 1 manidble, 2 maxillae. have cephalothorax = head covered by shield. walking legs = pereopods swimming, egg or sperm transfer = pleopods
40
crustacean repro
separate sexes. sexual repro - direct sperm tranfer. - gonopods. fertilization may be internal or external, but frequently brooded. nauplius larva.
41
crustacean class remipedia
homonomous segments. tagmata = head and trunk. primitive appearance
42
crustacean class branchiopoda
freshwater, phyllopodous limbs for swimming/feeding. cyclic parthenogens.
43
class malacostraca - crustacean
marine, 6 head segments, 8 body segments, 6 abdominal segments. - stalked or sessile eyes
44
hoplocariada - within malacostraca
lobster-like. complex predatory + social behaviour. spearing or clubbing thoracic limb.
45
most malacostracans in order decapoda
crabs, lobsters, shrimp, crayfish. - mostly benthic, burroug. 5 pairs of walking limbs. carapace. chelate, subchelate = pinchers
46
isopoda vs amphipoda differences
i = d-v flat a - laterally flat, more variable leg morphology. paasitic, isopods - may have given up gills + exchange gase with spiracle-tracheal system
47
class thecostraca - barnacles. cirripedia
cerripedia: all marine, sessile filter-feeders. some parasites. attached to substrate, enclosed in calcareous plates. stalked or ustalked. - long penis, shorter is high wave force.
48
hexapoda: crustaceans.
only invertebrates to have evolved powered flight.
49
``` hexapod class insecta - morphology ```
clear segmentation. - 1 pair of antennae, mandibles. trachea/spiracles for gas exchange. - uniramous limbs. 3 clear tagmata. enthognatha = mandibles within cheeks. unsclerotized exoskeletons.
50
collembola appendage - ventral projections? simple eye
furcula = jumping. | - ventral used for water + ion regulation = collophore
51
insecta - cerci?
sensory organs at the bum. | ectognathous.
52
insecta archaeognatha
mandibles with one condyl on mandibular joint. | apterygote
53
pterygota = clade . whats the synapomorphy?
pterygota
54
palaeopterous condition

55
neoptera condition
flexible wing base. | one wing covers to other wing set.
56
direct vs indirect flight muscles
``` direct = attached to wing indirect = attached to thorax ```
57
describe dragonfly flights
DV thoracic muscles contract to pull notum down, clicks wing up. wing muscles pull wing down
58
true flies indirect muscles
DV muscles contract, pull notum down to pop wing up. relax dv muscles, contract longitudinal muscles to downstroke
59
hexapoda reproduction
separate sexes. collembola & apterygote = sperm indrectly transferred. - pterygote - internal ferti with intromission. some haplodiploid. hexapod = intralecithal eggs.
60
development in which all body segments are present at hatching
epimorphic
61
three variations of post-hatching life cycle in hexapods
ametaboly hemimetaboly holometaboly
62
juveniles look like small adults except no genitalia
ametaboly
63

75
subclass merostomata
order eurypterida: three body tagmata: cephalothorax, mesosoma, metasoma order xiphosura: carapace looks like horshoe. long tail spine. single lensed eye. scavenge. lay eggs in sand - external fertilization. larvae - planktonic. *blood clots when single bacteria present
76
