Q

Pseudocoelomates

A

Have a body cavity between the endoderm and mesoderm. The body cavity is referred to as a pseudocoel.
E.g. Roundworm

Q

Coelomate

A

Cavity develops entirely within the mesoderm layer. This is called a true coelom. Sometimes coelomates are called eucoelomates.
E.g. Annelid

Phylum Nematoda

A
Aka roundworms 
Widespread and abundant
Homogeneous body plan (tapered at ends)
Pseudocoel between body wall and gut houses reproduction organs
Hydrostatic skeleton 
Move through eel like undulations
16
Q

Turbatrix, the vinegar eel

A

Free living nematode

Feeds on bacteria and yeast in dead organic material

17
Q

Ascaris, the intestinal roundworm

A

Infects humans

Spread through feces

18
Q

Trichinella

A

Nematode
Smallest to carnivorous animals
Causes trichinosis

19
Q

Hookworm and pinworm

A

Nematode
Hookworm causes anemia
Pinworms in children

20
Q

Filarial worms

A

Inhabit lymph glands usually in mammals and birds

21
Q

Wuchereria

A

Causes elephantiasis which is intense swelling of legs, breast, arms, scrotum

22
Q

Heart worm

A

Infects heart and pulmonary tissues in dogs

23
Q

Phylum Annelida

A

Aka earth worm, leeches and marine worms
Occur in various environments
Segmentation body creates specialization and improved hydrostatic skeleton.
Move through circular muscle contractions then longitudinal muscle contraction.
Have a closed circulatory system
Ventral nerve cord connects ganglia in each segment and to the brain

24
Class Polychaeta
``` Phylum Annelida Marine environments Symbiotic to chemo autotrophic bacteria Segments have parapodia and setae (bristles) Greatest amount of cephalization ```
25
Class clitellata
Earth worms and leeches | Clitellum is a mucus secreting structure involved in reproduction
26
Oligochaeta- earth worms
Also includes other fresh water worms such as blood worms or tubifex. Lack parapodia and a well differentiated head region. Decompose matter Hermaphroditic Clitellum is used in reproduction Sperm produced in seminal vesicles and exits through male gonopores. Sperm travels through seminal grooves
27
Hirudinea
``` Leeches Freshwater and marine Blood suckers E.g. Hirudo Anticoagulants are secreted into host body Segments lack internal septa Have clitellum ```
28
Phylum Platyhelminthes classes
Turbellaria Trematoda Cestoda Includes species dugesia, fasciola, opisthorchis, schistosoma, tapeworm
29
Phylum Nematoda species
Turbatrix, ascaris, trichinosis, hookworm, pinworm, filarial, heartworm
30
Phylum Annelida classes
Polychaeta | Clitellata which includes Oligochaeta and hirudinea
