phylogeny and architecture Flashcards
(145 cards)
how many phyla?
around 34
The Geologic Time Scale (saying to remember order of the things)
CAMels Often Sit Down CARefully, Perhaps Their Joints CREak,
the geologic time scale
the actual things
Cambian, ordovician, silurian, Devonian, carboniferous, permian, triassic, jurassic, cretaceous,
what geological time scale did humans come
quaternary
what geological scale did mammals come
paleogene
hierarchical groupings
King Philip Called Out For Good Sex , Kingdom, phylum, class, order, Family, Genus, Species.
taxa
organisms in the rank
Binomial name
italicized Genus species, or italicized Genus sp.
how are species grouped?
groupes on evolutionary relatedness, evolutionary decent, descendants share key features
phylogeny
uses organismal characters(morphological, developmental(embryological), genetic/molecular, fossil)
homoplasy characters
not related; convergent evolution
homology characters
common ancestry
clade
organism evolved from a common ancestor
monophyly
most recent common ancestor and ALL of its decedents
Paraphyly
most recent common ancestor and SOME but NOT ALL of its decedents
polyphyly
no recent common ancestor, based on homoplasy (no evolutionary origin)
evolution is linear or branching ?
branching
Key transitions in animal architecture
-levels of organization/complexity (tissues)
-Body symmetry
-body cavity organization
developmental traits (protostome vs deuterostome)
-segmentation
levels of organization
- protoplasmic
- cellular
- cell-tissue
- tissue
- organ and organ system
protoplasmic level of organization
- unicellular eukaryote
- life occurs in a single cell
- not in animals!!!
cellular level of organization
- aggregation of cells that have diff functions
- choanoflagellates
- adhesion between cells
cell tissue level of organization
- Metazoans(Animals!)
- specific cells work together to have specific functions
- porifera, placozoa
tissue level of organization
true tissue secretes an extracellular matrix(basement membrane)
-highly coordinated unit (ex nerve net in cnidarians)
organ and organ system level of organization
-tissues work together to form organ with specialized function
-organ systems of organs that work together
(most complex, ex: digestive system, circa system)
