Chapters 32-34 Flashcards
(154 cards)
Synapomorphic traits
Multicellular
No cell walls
ECM: extensive multicellular network
Heterotrophs: mostly ingestion
Largest predators, herbivores, and detritivores
Move at some point in their life cycle
Neurons (other than sponges)
Comparative morphology
Tissues formation (embryotic)
Cephalized body
Body cavity
Embryotic development
Tissue
a set of similar cells in a tightly integrated unit
Epithelium
surface cells tightly joined
Ectoderm
skin and nervous system
Endoderm
lining of digestive tract
Mesoderm
circulatory system, muscle, and internal structures
Embryo
Diploblasts
two tissue types, ecto and endoderm,
Ectoderm: muscles are less complicated
Endoderm: reproduction
Cnideria, ctenophora
Embryo
Triploblasts
three tissue types, ecto, endo and mesoderm
All other animals and some cnidarians

Germ layers
layers of embryonic tissue
Nerve net
cnidarians, ctenophres
First neuron organization
Associated with radial symmetry
These animals are likely to encounter a predator on all sides
Central nervous system
all other animals
Contain ganglia
Associated with bilateral symmetry
Tend to encounter food or danger at one end of the body
ganglia
nerve clusters in different points on the body
Cephalization
concentration of sensing and feeding organs on one end
Evolved with bilateral symmetry
Cerebral ganglion
bilateral symmetry
All triploblastic animals except for the phylum Echinodermata have it
Coelom

enclosed, fluid filled space
cnidarians and ctenophores do not have it
Aceolomates

triploblasts with no coelom
cnidarians and ctenophores do not have a coelom
Why is having a body cavity(having a coelom) important important?
Water presure based movement
Protection for internal structures

Protostome
first mouth
Two blocks of mesoderm
Arthropods, mollusks, annelids,
What is the functional or adaptive difference of the two ways to end up in the same result

Tube within a tube
Worm
Walking animals are tube within tubes on legs

Molecular pHylogonies
Chanoflagellates: closest living relative to animals
Sponges are similar in sessile lifestyle and feeding mechanism
Sponges are the sister group to everything else
Radial before bilateral
Endo and ecto before meso
Mesoderm-ceolom
Protostome versus deuterostome was a large evolutionary split

Choanoflagellates vs sponges

Protostomes have two categories
Ecdysozoans
Lophotrochozoans
