Q

Why are flatworms called acoelomates?

A

They do not have a true coelom. Their only body cavity is the digestive cavity.

Q

How is the digestive process different in free-living flat worms compared to parasitic flatworms?

A

23
Q

Describe any human diseases caused by roundworms that were discussed in class.

A
  1. Trichinosis - eating undercooked meat.
  2. Filarial worms - block the lymph vessel causing extreme swelling.
  3. Ascarid worms - eating vegetables and fruit that aren’t washed thoroughly and food not cooked thoroughly.

24
Q

Annelids are believed to be more closely related to ________ because they have similar larval stages.

A

snails and clams

25
Q

_______ are internal walls between each of the body segments of segmented worms.

A

Septa

26
Q

Annelids are the only worms to have a true _______.

A

coelom

27
Q

Annelids have a ________ digestive system in which food passes in one direction.

A

complete

28
Q

Although annelids obtain nutrients in a variety of ways, food always enter through the _________.

A

pharynx

29
Q

________ is the hollow tube that food travel to get from the pharynx to the crop.

A

Esophagus

30
Q

________ is the internal organ used to store food during digestion.

A

Crop

31
Q

________ is the internal organ used to grind food during digestion.

A

Gizzard

32
Q

_________ is the internal organ used to absorb the nutrients during digestion.

A

Intestine

33
Q

Annelids have a ________ circulatory system.

A

closed

34
Q

Aquatic annelids use _________ for respiration while land dwelling use __________.

A

gills, moist skin

35
Q

_________ filter out cellular wastes.

A

Nephridia

36
Q

Annelids are the only worms to have a definite ________ used for response.

A

brain

37
Q

________ muscles makes the worm shorter and fatter while ________ muscles make the worm longer and thinner.

A

Longitudinal, circular

38
Q

________ are structure used to prevent slipping during movement.

A

Setae

39
Q

_________ is a band of thickened specialized segments that secretes a mucus ring into which eggs and sperm are released for fertilization.

A

Clitellum

40
Q

Describe the three groups of annelids.

A
  1. Oligochaetes - These worms have a streamlined body, live in dirt or fresh-water and have very few setae.
  2. Leeches - external parasite.
  3. Polychaetes - marine annelids with paired appendages with setae.
41
Q

Describe the ecological importance of annelids.

A
  1. The tunnels they make in the ground provide passageways for plant roots and water to get through soil.
  2. They help aerobic bacteria to live underground.
  3. They bring digested plant material to bacteria for decomposition.
  4. They bring up minerals from deeper layers of soil.
  5. Provide food for many terrestrial and marine carnivores.
42
Q

Mollusks are ________ bodied that usually have some sort of __________.

A

soft, shell

43
Q

All mollusks have four parts. List and describe each.

A
  • Foot-used for crawling, burrowing, and/or capturing prey.
  • Shell-made of calcium carbonate and used for protection/structure.
  • Mantle-thin layer of tissue covering the body.
  • Visceral mass-all the internal organs.
44
Q

___________ is a tongue-like structure used to obtain food.

A

Radula

45
Q

Aquatic mollusks have _________ for the respiration while the land dwellings use their _______ cavity.

A

gilla, mantle

46
Q

_________ circulatory system is one which blood is pumped through the body openly.

A

Open

47
Q

________ circulatory system is one where blood is closed in and returns to the heart by specific vessels such as arteries.

A

Closed

48
Q

__________ removes ammonia from the blood and releases it outside the body.

A

Nephridia

49
Q

__________ is a structure that sucks in water and excretes excess water.

A

Siphon

50
Q

Which group of mollusks shows the most developed response system?

A

Cephalopods

51
Q

What are the three groups of mollusks and how do they differ.

A
  • Gastropods: shell-less or single-shelled and move with a foot on their belly(slugs and snails). Can hide in their shells.
  • Bivalves: have two shells held together by powerful muscles. Spend most of their time in one place and filter feed. Clams and oysters are examples.
  • Cephalopods: soft-bodied mollusks that consist of a head attached to a foot that is divided into several tentacles. Examples are octopi, nautiluses, squids, and cuttle fish.
