Bio Lab 2 (Porifera and Cnidaria) Flashcards
(45 cards)
Phyla being discussed
Porifera and cnidaria
Porifera and cnidaria
very simple
eukaryotic
multicellular
ingestive- feeding heterotroughs
porifera
- mostly salt water
- asymmetrical body plan
- filter feeding
- sessile
- have three body plans
three body plans of …
porifera
asconoid
synconoid
leuconoid
asconoid
- hollow cylinder
synconoid
cylinder with alternating pockets
leuconoid
extensive aquifers system
Porifera body plan
- center cavity is called the spongocoel
- water current is formed by choanocytes (collar cells) that also filter water
- water enters through the osmium and exits through the sponge through osculum
what creates water current
choanocytes, food-filtering cells that line the internal cavity
Porifera sponge wall consists of
- amoebocytes have multiple names based on their function
- they make collagen fibres, make spicules, make gemmules and make sperm and eggs
- also have spongin, spicules, mesenchyme
gemmules
asexual reproduction in Porifera made by amoebocytes
spongin
proteinaceous fibers that give sponges their form
- Porifera
spicules made of
- Porifera
- that are made of calcium (calcareous) or silicon (siliceous) 1
mesenchyme
- porifera
- is a gelatinous matrix that the spongin and spicules are embedded in
cnidaria
- radially symmetrical
- a body wall surrounds a cavity where extracellular digestion occurs
- carnivorous
cnidaria digestion
extracellular
cnidaria body wall is made of
ectoderm with an outer later or stinging cells called cnidocytes
- mesoglea: gelatinous middle
- endoderm, the inner cell layer called the gastroderm)
cnidocytes
stinging cells that have a long harpoon-like structure called a nematocyst
- when triggered, it discharges the nematocyst
- cnidaria
cnidaria body plans
polyp form is flower like and sessile
the medusa form is umbrella like and mobile
hydrozoa = hydroid
- cnidaria
- polyp dominant
- asexual reproduction via budding and fragmentation
- sexual reproduction VIA FORMATION OF SPERMARIES OR OVARIES
species obelia
hydrozoa
- have gastrozoids, gonozoids
obelia fertilization
zygote that divides into a solid ball called a blastula. then this forms a free swimming planula
0 planula will eventually settle and form a new colony, away from its parental colony to avoid competition
gastrozoids
specified feeding polyps that are in hydrozoa. the cup with the hair
gonozoids
polyps that bud female and male reproductive medusa that release eggs and sperm, respectively, from gonads. the fat arm thing
