Q

Ciliated Planula Larvae

A

Cnidaria; forms from zygote so zygote can move

13
Q

Umbo

A

Bivalves; oldest part of the shell

14
Q

Radula

A

Mollusca (except bivalves); “tongue” that scrapes material, acts as conveyor belt to move food towards stomache

15
Q

Siphons

A

Bivalves; extension of the mantle, draws water in or pushes it out

16
Q

Nephridial tubules

A

Bivalves; kidneys

17
Q

Free-swimming trochophore larva

A

Bivales, annelids; larve stage after egg hatches

18
Q

Glochidia stage

A

Freshwater bivalves; specialized veliger stage. After internal fertilization, attaches to fish gills and lives as parasite

19
Nauplius
Most common crustacean larvae
20
Green gland
Part of crustacean excretory system, utilizes hydrostatic pressure
21
Malpighian tubules
Used in insect excretory system
22
Hemolymphs
Involved in crustacean respiration
23
Tracheal system
System of tube involved in insect respiration
24
Podia
Enchinodermata, tube feet
25
Ampulla
Enchinodermata - muscle sack that hold fluid above the podium, creates a "suction cup"
26
Ossicles
Plates on the calcerous endoskeleton of echinoderms
27
Catch collagen
Asteroidea - specialized connective tissue. Can be controlled by nervous system to change from "liquid" to "solid"
28
Pedicellarie
Pincer-like jaws controlled by muscles, keep body surface free of debris
29
Papulae
Asteroidea - small projects of coelomic cavity that extend through ossicles. Aids in gas exchange
30
Notochord
Chorodates, flexible but stiff tissue, becomes vertebrae in most vertebrates
31
Dorsal Nerve Cord
Chordates - anterior ends enlarges to from brain. In vertebrates brain protected in bone/cartilage cranium
32
Pharyngeal pouches and slits
Chordates - slits lead from pharyngeal cavity to outside. In fish - makes up internal gills. In humans - make-up part of the middle ear, ear drum, tonsils, etc.
33
Endostyle or thyroid gland
Chordata - endostyle secretes proteins, thyroid secretes hormones
34
Postanal Tail
Chordata - allows for swimming, becomes smaller or vestigial in some lineages
35
Micronucleus
Used in sexual reproduction, genes never translated, forms marcronucleus, the "good copy"
36
Macronucleus
Used in day-to-day for metabolism development, many copies of genes
37
Archeocyte
Aids in porifera digestion, embeded in mesohyle
38
Pinacocytes
Aids in porifera protect, embeded in mesohyle
