Q

Bilateral symmetry is present in..?

A

All animal groups except : Porifera (sponges) are asymmetrical and Radiata (jellyfish) have a radial symmetry (top/bottom but no front/back or left/right)

Q

Describe the body cavity and its role?

A

It is a fluid-filled space, which develops in early embryo, providing space for organs and systems to develop (respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive, urinary and reproductive systems)

Q

What are the 3 advantages of animals having a body cavity?

A

1) more organs and systems
2) longer digestive tract which allows food to remain longer and increase the exposure of food of digestive enzymes and the absorption of nutrients
3) can store egg and sperm

Q

How does the food mix and move in the GI tract?

A

Smooth muscles in organs of GI tract mix and move food

18
Q

What are the two animal groups that have a single opening/digestive cavity?

A

Radiata and platyhelminths have a mouth but no anus

19
Q

What are the two animal groups who have two openings but no muscles to move the food?

A

Nematoda and Rotifera

20
Q

How does the Nematoda and Rotifera move their food without muscles?

A

Food moves only when animal moves

21
Q

Describe the movement of food for the animals have a complete digestive cavity

A

The muscles allow movement of the food independent of the animal movement

22
Q

What is the purpose of jointed appendages?

A

Increase flexibility and efficiency of movement

23
Q

Name two exemples of jointed appendages in humans

A

arms and legs

24
Q

In vertebrates, movement uses muscles attached to what and controlled by what?

A

Muscles attached to bones (endoskeleton) and the movement is controlled by nervous system

25
What is the only animal group that does not have a nervous system?
Porifera has a neutral net
26
What is the name of the other animals groups with jointed appendages but who does not have muscles attached to the endoskeleton?
Arthropods have muscles attached to exoskeleton
27
How are called cells that divide to create the ova and engulfs the sperm?
Oocyte
28
Explain the process of cleavage?
To get from fertilization to the formation of hallow ball of cells called blastocyst by repeated cell division with no cell growth
29
To which group of animals does the term blastocyst applies ?
Mammal = blastocyst. Other animals : blastula
30
How are called the cells in blastocyst
blastomeres
31
How is called the fluid-filled body cavity in blastocyst
blastocoel
32
What is gastrulation
the rearrangement of cells to create 3 germ layers (the embryotic tissue endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm)
33
What organs are formed from endoderm?
lungs, bladder, liver, pancreas, several glands
34
Name three organs developed from ectoderm?
skin, pituitary gland, nails, hair, tooth enamel, lenses of eyes, several glands (all have access to exterior surface of the body)
35
How is called the formation of organs
organogenesis
36
From which layers are these organs developed from : skeletal system, blood cells, blood vessels, kidneys?
Mesoderm
37
What are the three types of muscles?
Smooth, Skeletal, cardiac
38
How is called the part that become the body cavity in embryo?
Coelom
39
What animals have a complete digestive track?
``` Molluscs Annelids Arthropods Echinodermata Chordates ```
40
Which major animal phyla has jointed appendages and bones
Chordata
41
Name the 6 animal groups that have three embryonic tissue layers?
Platyhelminths, Nematoda, Mollusca, Annelids, Arthropods, vertebrates
