BIOL 200 Final Flashcards
(24 cards)
Whata are the 4 basic tissue types?
- Epithelial
- Connective
- Musclular
- nervous tissue
Name the types of epithilium (epithial tissue)
- Simple = one cell thick
- Stratified = multiple cells thick
- squamous = flattened
- cuboidal = cube shaped
- colomnar = tall, colomn shaped
Epithilial tissue
covers body surface and lines body cavities/organs
connective tissue
- supports, binds, transports, immunity
- embedded in some sort of matrix (adipose tissue, hyaline cartilage, compact bone, loose fibrous connective tissue/areolar tissue)
muscle tissue
Contraction (movement)
- skeletal muscle (voluntary)
- smoothe muscle (involuntary)
- cardiac msucle (involuntary)
Nervous tissue
conducts electrical impulses
Unicellular organisation
- single celled or cellular aggregates
- very little cellular specialization
- protists
Diploblastic Organisation
- 2 layers:
(1) Ectoderm (epidermis)
(2) Endoderm (gastrodermis/gut lining) - mesoglea in the middle of the ectoderm and endoderm
Triploblastic organization
3 embryonic cell layers:
(1) Ectoderm (epidermis)
(2) Endoderm (gastrodermis)
(3) Mesoderm (bulk of body tissue)
Coelum
body cavity completely surrounded by mesoderm
what are the 3 triploblastic patters (coelum things)?
- Acoelumate animals
- Pseudocoelomate animals
- Coelomate animals
Acoelomate
- Lack coelom
- Have endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm
Pseudocoelomate
- endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm
- Have a pseudocoelom (looks like a complete ring)
Coelomate
- endoderm, ectoderm, mesoderm
- have a coelom (looks like two half circles)
- also have serosa, peritoneum, mesentery
Protostomes
- Blastopore develops into mouth
- Spiral cleavage
- Schizocoelous coelom
- Trochophore larva
Deuterostome
- Blastopore develops into anus
- Radial cleavage
- Enterocoelous coelom
- No trochophore larva
What are the basic forms of anatomical symmetry observed in animals and animal-like protists?
- Asymmetry: no axis of symmetry (eg. sponges)
- Radial symmetry: body parts arranged around a central axis (eg. cnidarians,
ctenophores)
○ Biradial symmetry: spherical (eg. comb jellies)
○ Pentaradial symmetry: starfish - Bilateral symmetry: Frontal plane (anterior-posterior) and transverse plane (dorsal-ventral).**
Protist evolution
- first protists (and first eukaria) in the proterozoic
- polyphyletic (don’t share a common ancestor)
- idk
3 types of asexual reproduction in protists
(1) Binary Fission
(2) Schizogony (Series of mitotic divisions (nucleus divides) not followed by cytokinesis)
(3) Budding
Important Protozoan groups
- excavata
- amoebozoa
- rhizaria
- Alveolata
Excavata
- eg. euglenoids
- excavated feeding groove on outside of the cell
- animal-like (with flagella) or plant-like
- several pathenogenic to humans (lots of STDs and stuff)
Amoebozoa
- feed and move using pseudopodia (projection of the cell)
- phagocytosis
- cause a nunch of health problems: eg. Keratitis (inflammation of cornea), Encephalitis (inflammation of the brain), Amoebic dysentery
Rhizaria
- Amoeboid (i.e. cell shape varies), but not sister group to Amoebozoa
- Some have filopodia or axopodia (supporting structures)
- eg. foraminefera (responsible for limestone, chalk)
