Term
major divisions of animals
Definition
protostomes and dueterostomes
Term
protostome
Definition
dorsal brain and ventral nerve cord
Term
deuterostome
Definition
dorsal brain and dorsal nerve cord
Term
nephrozoa
Definition
all have nephridia for waste excretion
Term
divisions of protostomes
Definition
lophotrocozoa and endysozoa
Term
lophotrochozoa
Definition
animals with a lophophore
animals with trochophore larvae
Term
trocohophore
Definition
Larval form found in the annelids and
molluscs, floats freely in water until finding a habitat
Term
endysozoa
Definition
animals that shed the exoskeleton during
growth (molting)
Term
exoskeleton of endysozoans
Definition
muscles attach on internal surfaces
- blood (haemolymph) sloshes
around in a large body cavity
(haemocoel)exoskeleton
completely surrounds
Term
Growth of internal organs and
muscles in endysozoans
Definition
inhibits growth
Term
cycles of growth in endysozoans
Definition
Molting- occurs in a cycle:shedding of exoskeleton
allows organs to get larger,
followed by:
- Re-deposition of new exoskeleton
Term
simple (incomplete) metamorphosis
Definition
when stages of growth (instars) resemble one another
Term
Complete metamorphosis
Definition
instars do not resemble eachother
Term
animal pole
Definition
location where successful sperm enters cell, becomes dorsal side
Term
zygote
Definition
feritilized egg
Term
blastula
Definition
results from numerous mitotic divisons, early animal embryo
Term
Blastocele
Definition
open sac withing blastula
Term
gastrula
Definition
becomes stomach, cells become differentiaded into endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm
Term
Archenteron
Definition
primitave gut
Term
Neurula
Definition
This stage is found in non-protostomes. The chordates. Beginning of nerve development.
Term
Neural plate
Definition
early nerve tissue
Term
cleavage
Definition
mitosis in animal cell, caused by movement of actin fibers in cytoskeleton
Term
yolk
Definition
found in vegetal pole
Term
Incomplete cleavage
Definition
plane of separation cannot
proceed through the yolk (chicks)
Term
Superficial cleavage
Definition
syncytium forms first
Term
syncytium
Definition
cytoplasm containing many nuclei
Term
blastomeres
Definition
Individual cells of the early
embryo
Term
animal pole blastomere
Definition
become tissues
different from those at the
vegetal pole
Term
removal of frog blastomeres
Definition
results in a fully formed “normal” tadpole
Term
Totipotential stem cells
Definition
can develop in any way
Term
Pluripotential stem cells
Definition
like bone marrow, can make more than one tissue but not any tissue (like totipotential), replace old and dying cells such as red blood cells
Term
committed cells
Definition
can only develop into one type of tissue
Term
when did animals begin to show diverse body plans?
Definition
600 mya
Term
cytoplasm determines
Definition
yolk, transcription factors
Term
pax 6
Definition
mouse tool-kit
gene that produces
transcription factors for
eye development
Term
arthorpoda
Definition
Jointed appendages, Exoskeleton of
chitin and CaCO3, Grow by molting All possess the Ubx gene Wildly varying
specializations of body segments.
Term
ubx gene
Definition
works with another gene called “distal-less (dll)” to form an appendage on every body segment
Term
why do insects not have legs on abdoman?
Definition
Have a unique mutant form of the Ubx
gene. It produces a protein that blocks
the dll transcription factor for making
legs
Term
pdm gene
Definition
gills in crustaceans, wings in insects
