Term
Who are the descendants of Protista? Who are the ancestors of Protista?
Definition

   Multi-cellular groups (Plantae, Animalia, Fungi).  Moneran ancestors.

Term

Which body form of Cnidarians is more likely to be the sexual form?  The asexual form?

Definition

Medusa--sexual

Polyp--asexual

Term
Name the three ways protozoans move?
Definition
Cilia, Flagella, Pseudopodia.
Term

What are the three banches of the Kingdom Animalia?

Definition
Mesozoa, Parazoa (includes P. Porifera), Eumetazoa (all other animal Phyla).
Term
What are pinacocytes?  What phylum are they located on?
Definition

Flat cells-cover the inner and outer surface.

Phylum Porifera

Term

What are choanocytes and what is their purpose?

Definition
Collar cells-flagellated and line the incurrent pores.  To move water for filter-feeding.
Term

Distinguish the three kinds of canal systems in sponges.

Definition

Asconoid--spongocoel present, choanocytes restricted to spongocoel

Syncoid--spongocoel present, choanocytes occupy spongocoel and radial canals

Leuconoid--spongocoel absent, choanocytes found throughout

Term
What level of organization are sponges?
Definition
Cellular level.
Term
It is the prensence of what that unites all sponges?
Definition
Spicules--minerals secreted by specialized sponge cells, serve as stiffening material and hold together the shape of the sponge.
Term
How do adult sessile sponges feed?
Definition
Move water through canals between their cells and remove suspended food particles by endocytosis.
Term

Why do you think the larger a sponge is, the more pores it has?

Definition
Because the larger it is the more food it needs.
Term

Of the two body plans found in Phylum Cnidaria, which one is sessile, which one is mobile?

Definition

Polyp--sessile

Medusa--mobile

Term
Why does it meake sense that the medusa body form is sexual?
Definition
Because it is mobile, which allows it to move around to find a mate.
Term

What is the significance of the septa in Phylum Cnidaria?

Definition
Helps keep structure with the least amount of material.
Term

Term
What are the three classes of Phylum Platyhelminthes?
Definition

Class Turbellaria-flatworms (Planaria)

Class Trematoda-flukes

Class Cestoda-tapeworms

Term
How does planaria feed?
Definition
Phyarynx
Term

Why is the gastrovascular cavity so highly branched in Planaria?

Definition
Planaria lacks a circulatory system.  It has the branched gastrovascular cavity so that every cell is a few cells away from the gastrovascular cavity.  Thus, nutrients get passed to all cells.
Term
What is the advantage of a two-host system in parasites?
Definition
They don't have to compete with each other.
Term
What is meant by a pseudocoelom?
Definition

False coelom cavity.

Term
What is the outer covering of pseudocoelomates?
Definition
Non-living cuticle
