Lecture 13 Flashcards
(36 cards)
Murala
solid ball of cells
Animal
multi-cellular, heterotrophic eukaryotes. nutrients obtained by ingestion. lack cell walls. diploid and reproduce sexually
First step in animal reproductive cycle
male and female haploid gametes are produced by meiosis
Second step in animal reproductive cycle
egg and sperm fuse producing a zygote
Third step in animal reproductive cycle
zygote divides by mitosis
Fourth step in animal reproductive cycle
the blastula which is a hollow ball of cells is an early embryonic stage
Fifth stage in animal reproductive cycle
one side of the baluster folds inward forming a gastrula (cleavage)
Sixth stage in animal reproductive cycle
internal sac formed during gastrulation becomes the digestive tract lined by the endoderm
Somatic cell
any cell in the body not used for reproduction
Reproductive cells
egg or sperm
The ectoderm in the sixth stage in animal reproductive cycle
outer cell layer that gives rise to the outer covering oft he animal and if present the central nervous system
The mesoderm in the sixth stage in animal reproductive cycle
forms the muscles and most internal organs
After the gastrula most animals will..
develop into adults
Larva
immature individual that looks different than the mature adult body form
Metamorphosis
in order for a larva to become an adult that reproduces sexually it undergoes a major change in body form. this is controlled by special gene sets
How many phyla of animals are there
35
Invertebrates
refer to animals lacking a vertebral column. most animals are invertebrates
Vertebrates
have a vertebral column
All but one of the 35 animal phyla are..
invertebrates
Radial symmetry
body parts radiate from the center. animal has top and bottom but not right and left
Bilateral symmetry
mirror image right and left sides.
Anterior end
distinct head
Posterior end
distinct tail
Dorsal surface
back
