Q

Lophotrochozoa

A
  • Display protosome devlopment: blastopore becomes mouth of juvenile
  • do not perform ecdysis to grow
  • soft bodies organisms that grow gradually
  • possesses a lophophore: specialized feedin apparatus, ciliated tentables surround a mouth

Q

Class Tubellaria

A

free-living group;
marine and freshwater enviornments;
Auricles - special chemoreceptive structures on the sides of the head;
ocelli allow the worm to differentiate between areas of light and dark; Sensory input is processed by the cerebral ganglia;
pharynx located midway down the body.

Q

Class Trematoda

A

parasitic flukes.
Head is crowned by a sucker with hooks or barbs for host attachment.
Complex life cycle; produce large quantities of eggs to ensure that at least a few are successful.

Q

Rotifers

A
wheel-bearers;
Corona - propels throught water, move particles to eat;
mastax- phatynx, jaws, unique;
digestive system;
microscopic;
inhibit freshwater;
17
Q

Brachipods

A

Sessile;
Lophophores inside shells;
attach to substrate with Pedicle;
filter feed;

18
Q

Mollusks

A

3 main parts: muscular foot(movement), Visceral mass(internal organs), Mantle(scretes the shell);
developed digestive, circulatory, excretory, respiratory and nervous systems.

19
Q

Class Polyplacophora

A
Chitons;
rocky shores;
oval and flattened;
shells held in place by muscles;
"roll up"
homing instinct;
20
Q

Class Bivalva

A

largest and ecologically significant group;
marine and freshwater;
clams, mussels, and oysters;
laterally compressed;
enclosed by two hinged valves;
Siphons - one inccurent and one excurrent.;

21

Class Gastropoda

A
snails and slugs;
largest and most diverse class;
terrestrial forms;
broad, flat creeping foot;
gills or gas exchange;
highly vascularized mantle
22
Q

Class Cephalopoda

A

marine predators - octopus, squid, and chambered nautilus;
brain and enlarged head and tentacles;
sharp beak for crushing prey or injecting poison;
color changes and explosions of ink;
closed circulatory system

23
Q

Phylum Annelida

A
bristle worms and tapeworms;
swim freely or burrow 
live in tubes;
paddle-like appendages with setae;
parapodia - swimming and gas exchange or defense
30
Q

Subclass Oligochaeta

A

earthworms;
freshwater and terrestrial habitats;
lack parapodia, few bristles, lack well-developed head;
excrete mucus-like substace to keep bodies moist - facilitates movement;
deposit feeders;

31
Q

subclass Hirudinea

A

leeches;
freashwater;
predominatly bloodsuckers of vertebrate and invertebrate animals;
possess clitellum
