Term
What are the characteristics of all animals?
Definition
Heterotrophic, multicellular, no cell walls, and sexual reproduction
Term
What are the essential body functions of all animals?
Definition
Feeding, respiration, circulation, excretion, response, movement, and reproduction
Term
Deuterostomes
Definition
2nd mouth; blastopore=anus; echinoderms and vertebrates
Term
Protostomes
Definition
1st mouth; blastopore=mouth; invertebrates
Term
Phylum Porifera
Definition
Absent Body Plan; Sponges; intracellular digestion; no nervous system; sexual and asexual reproduction (internal fertilization)
Term
Phylum Platyhelminthes
Definition
Acoelomates;Flatworms, turbellorians, flukes, tapeworms; 3 germ layers; bilateral symmetry; cephalization; internal organ systems; most don't need circulatory system; sexually hermaphrodites
Term
Phylum Nematoda
Definition
Pseudocoelomates; Hookworms, roundworms; 3 germ layers; simple nervous systems; muscles function as hydrostatic skeleton; sexual reproduction
Term
Phylum Annelida
Definition
Coelomates; Leeches, oligochates, polychates; segmented bodies (body divided by septa); closed circulatory system; most have developed nervous systems; 2 major body muscles function as hydrostatic skeleton (longitudinal and circular); most reproduce sexually
Term
Phylum Mollusca
Definition
Coelomates; Snails, slugs, clams, squid, octopi; open or closed circulatory systems; sexual reproduction (snails-external fertilization; tentacled mollusks-internal fertilization)
Term
Phylum Arthropoda
Definition
Coelomates; Insects, crabs, centipedes, spiders; segmented body; exoskeleton; open circulatory system (malpighian tubes); well developed nervous systems; terrestrial-internal fertilization, aquatic-external fertilization
Term
Phylum Echinodermata
Definition
Coelomates; Sea stars, sea cucumbers, sand dollars; internal skeleton; radial symmetry; water vascular system; not a highly developed nervous system; external fertilization
Term
Intracellular Digestion
Definition
Digestion of food inside cells
Term
Extracellular Digestion
Definition
Food broken down outside cells in a digestive cavity or tract and then absorbed into the body
Term
Cephalization
Definition
Concentrations of sense organs and nerve cells at the front of an animals body
Term
Hydrostatic Skeleton
Definition
Fluid-filled body cavity surrounded and supported by muscles
Term
Endoskeleton
Definition
Structural support inside the body
Term
Internal Fertilization
Definition
Fertilization inside the body of the female
Term
External Fertilization
Definition
Fertilization outside the body of the female
Term
Exoskeleton
Definition
Hard body covering
Term
What does the excretory system of most animals do?
Definition
It rids the body of metabolic wastes while controlling the amount of water in the tissues
Term
How do aquatic invertebrates rid their bodies of ammonia?
Definition
They diffuse the ammonia through their pores
Term
Radial Symmetry
Definition
Body parts extend from the center of the body (Cnidarians and echinoderms)
Term
Bilateral Symmetry
Definition
Have mirror-image left and right sides (Worms, mollusks, and arthropods)
Term
Acoelomate
Definition
Without a coelom; (Ex. flatworms)
Term
Coelomate
Definition
With coelom; (Ex. annelids, mollusks)
Term
Pseudocoelomates
Definition
False coelom; (Ex. roundworms)
Term
Endoderm
Definition
Innermost germ layer; develop into the linings of the digestive tract
Term
Mesoderm
Definition
Middle layer; develop into muscles and much of the circulatory, reproductive, and excretory organ systems
Term
Endoderm
Definition
Outermost layer; develop into the sense organs, nerves, and the outer layer of the skin
Term
Coelom
Definition
Fluid-filled body cavity that is lined with tissue derived from mesoderm. Purpose-increase digestive and reproductive systems, food capacity and digestion, and gamete production
Term

Definition
Blastula-hollow ball of cells
Term
[image]
Definition
Gastrula-development of primitive digestive tract and tissue layers
Term
[image]
Definition
Zygote-fertilized egg, one cell
Term
[image]
Definition
Egg-unfertilized egg
Term

Definition
2-16 Cell stage
Term

Definition
Blastocoel and Blastopore
Term
Which invert phylum are vertebrates most closely related to? Why?
Definition
Echinoderms because they are deuterostomes
Term
Mollusca
Definition
Soft
Term
Cephalopoda
Definition
Head-foot
Term
Squid Facts
Definition
Siphons allow movement; release ink to confuse predators; internal shell; closed circulatory system; internal pen supports body; chromatophores (pigement that helps body change color); large eyes
Term
Respiration
Definition
Large surface areas for contact with air or water (kept moist for diffusion to occur); gills bring blood close to surface for gas exchange
Term
Closed Circulatory System
Definition
System in which blood is contained within a network of blood vessels
Term
Open Circulatory System
Definition
System in which blood is not always contained within a network of blood vessels
Term
Asexual Reproduction
Definition
Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself
Term
Sexual Reproduction
Definition
Process by which cells from two different parents unite to produce the first cell of a new organism
Term
Centralization
Definition
Nerve cells that are more concentrated
Term
Specialization
Definition
Sense organs that have special purposes (ex. eyes-sight, light detection, or motion detection)
Term
Segmentation
Definition
Most invertebrates with bilateral symmetry; different segments specialized for specific functions
Term
Embryonic Development
Definition
Zygote divides repeatedly to form a blastula. Protostomes-blastopore develops into mouth; Deuterostomes-blastopore develops into anus
Term
E.T: Symmetry
Definition
All invertebrates except sponges have some tyep of body symmetry; 2 types-radial and bilateral
Term
E.T:Cephalization
Definition
Most invertebrates with bilateral symmetry require movement for feeding, defense, and other functions; evolution trend toward cephalization
Term
E.T: Body Plan
Definition
Most complex animal phyla have a true coelom that is lined completely with tissue from mesoderm
Term
Earthworm Lab
Definition
Taxis responses-photo:light; hydro:water; thigmo:tough or rough surfaces; geo:gravity; chemo:chemical; Behavior-favors dark more than light; left sandpaper; moves toward higher ground
Term
