Q

What features are used to classify animals?

A

Symmetry
True tissue
body cavity
Development - Gastrulation

20
Q

What developed first?

Multicellularity or Adhesion and cell signaling

A

Adhesion and cell signaling

21
Q

What is the haploid stage in humans

A

Sperm or egg

22
Q

What defines bilateral symmetry

A

One axis of symmetry

23
Q

What defines radial symetry

A

Multiple lines of symetry

24
Q

What classifies a true tissue

A

Specialized and separated by a membrane

25
Which animal does not have true tissue
Sponges
26
What are the types of tissue
Connective Epithelial (skin - organ covering) muscle nervous
27
4 Ways to identify body plan
Type of Symmetry True tissue Body cavity and formation Development
28
Why aren't simmilar body plans always resembled in clades
Because of molecular data in phylogenetics
29
Define Diploblastic
ectoderm | endoderm
30
Define triploblastic
Ectoderm endoderm mesoderm
31
Define a body cavity
space between organs
32
What is a true body cavity
Coelom
33
What is a puesdocoelom
a body cavity derived from mesoderm and endoderm
34
What is the difference between coelom and puesdocoelom
Mesoderm is the only thing that touches the coelom in a a true body cavity. A puesdocoelom has endoderm and mesoderm touching the cavity.
35
What is gastrulation
Early embrionic development | Forming a tube from a sphere
36
What are two distinct types of gastrulation
Radial Cleavage | Spiral Cleavage
37
T/F Cells in spiral cleavage can separate and form other organisms
False | Cells cannot separate in spiral cleavage
38
When can cells totally differentiate?
Before the 8 cell stage
39
What do the cells differentiate to in the 8 cell stage
Endoderm mesoderm ectoderm
40
What forms first in protostomes
Mouth
41
What forms first in deuterostomes
Anus
42
T/F humans are dueterosomes
True
43
What does it mean that sponges are Basal animals
They are at the "base" ancient animals Not basic
44
What is a major clade for most animals
Bilaterians
45
T/F dueterstomia is a major clade for choradtes and other animals
True
46
Define: Hox Genes
Genes that regulate body formation
47
How do hox genes affect growth.
Through inhibiting transcription.
