16
Q

Platyhelminthes Reproduction

A

Hermaphrodite - each individual containing both male & female sexual structures

17
Q

Platyhelminthes: flatworms

A

Have regenerative ability

Able to regrow parts of their body that they are missing

18
Q

Trematoda - Flukes

A

Attach to host’s bodies by means of suckers, anchors or hooks.
Takes in food (cells/fluids) of host

First intermediate host - always a snail
Final - always a vertebrate

19
Q

Flukes (cause disease in humans)

A

Clonorchis sinensis

Flatworm paratizes humans

Lives in bile duct of liver (also cats, dogs and pigs)

20
Q

Cercomeromorpha

A

Tapeworms & hydatids

Hang on inner wall of host’s intestines through terminal attachment structure

21
Q

Cercomeromorpha

A

Lacks digestive cavity + digestive enzymes

Most tapeworms - occur in intestine of vertebrates. Regularly occur in humans

22
Q

Tapeworm structure

A

Long, flat body

Divided into three zones: scolex, the neck, and repetitive sections, the proglottids.

23
Q

The scolex

in flatworms

A

It is not a head

Has neither concentrated nervous tissue/mouth

24
Q

Proglottid (features)

A

Is a complete hermaphroditic unit

Contains both female and male reproductive organs

25
Q

A sponge’s structural materials (spicules, spongin) are manufactured by:

A

Amoebocytes

26
Q

Cnidarians capture food with:

A

Nematocysts - stinging capsules

27
Q

Coral animals’ exoskeleton compose of ______

A

Calcium carbonate.

28

32
Q

Cubozoa

A

33
Q

Hydrozoa

A

hydroids, Hydra, Portugese man-of-war

34
Q

Diploblasty

A

Two primary germ layers:

ectoderm and endoderm

35
Q

Characteristic of Platyhelminthes

A

Dorsoventrally flattened

36
Q

The _______ are small openings (pores) which allow water to enter a sponge

A

ostia

37
Q

Flatworms lack a fluid filled cavity in which the gut is suspended therefore are termed _______

A

Acoelomates

38
Q

In sponges what is the function of the Ostia?

A

They allow water carrying oxygen and food to enter the body.

39
Q

Choanocytes in sponges are for:

A

collecting food.

Found lining the internal cavity of the sponge
