Cards

Term

  1. heterotrophic- ingestion
  2. diploid life cycle
  3. intercellular junctions
  4. nerve and muscle tissue
  5. hox genes

Definition
5 traits that classify animal
Term
internal digestion- ingestion
Definition
what is an animals nutritional mode?
Term
collagen
Definition
most abundant protein in animals
Term

muscle and nerve cells

adaptation that mostly distinguishes animals

Definition
what specialized cells do animals posses that separate them from other kingdoms?
Term
archenteron
Definition
this structure is formed during gastrulation which become the gut
Term
diploid
Definition
what ploidy is anima reproduction
Term
sexually
Definition
how do animals reproduce
Term
zygote->cleavage->blastula->gastrulation ----------->gastrula
Definition
describe the initial reproductive process following the formation of a zygote
Term
cleavage
Definition
succession of mitotic cell divisions with out cell growth in between
Term
blastula
Definition
multicellular hollow ball following cleavage
Term

gastrulation

 

explains why we are not hollow balls

Definition
process of embryonic tissues (that will later become adult body part) during animal development
Term
gastrula
Definition
resulting developmental stage following gastrulation
Term
larva
Definition
sexually immature form of adult that is morphologically different from parent
Term
metamorphosis
Definition
a developmental transformation that turns larva into a juvenile
Term
juvenile
Definition
sexually immature but resembles adult form 
Term
homeotic genes
Definition
master regulatory genes for anatomy
Term
homeoboxes
Definition
an identical sequence of nucleotides found in all homeotic genes
Term
hox genes
Definition
homeobox containing genes in animals that influence morphology
Term
body plan
Definition
set of morphological and developmental traits integrated into a functional whole (the animal itself)
Term

radial symmetry

 

 

sea anemones- sessile

Definition
symmetry having no back/front or left/right
Term
bilateral symmetry
Definition
symmetry with 2 axes or orientation
Term
cephalization
Definition
refers to the concentration of sensory equipment at the anterior end ("brain")
Term

true tissues

 

sponges lack this

Definition
collections of specialized cells isolated from other tissues by membraneous layers
Term
germ layers
Definition
different layers that form various tissues and organs of the body
Term

ectoderm

 

"outside"

Definition
germ layer covering embryo that develops into epidermis, lining of oral cavity and rectum.
Term

endoderm

 

"in da durham"

Definition
inner most germ layer that form the lining of digestive and respiratory tracts
Term
archenteron
Definition
developing digestive tube that is part of the endoderm germ layer.
Term

diploblastic

 

 

cnidarians, comb jellies

Definition
condition of only having endoderm and ectoderm germ layers.
Term
mesoderm
Definition
3rd germ layer between endoderm and ectoderm
Term
mesoderm
Definition
germ layer that develops into skeleton, muscle, cardiovascular,excretory and reproductive systems
Term

triploblastic

 

 

bilateral symmetry

Definition
condition of having 3 germ layers.
Term

body cavity

 

coelom

Definition
fluid/air filled space separating digestive tract from outer body
Term

coelom

 

refers to grade not clade

Definition
body cavity that forms from mesoderm layer. it connects the organism dorsally and ventrally.
Term

coelomates

 

earthworms!

Definition
animals with true coelom derived from mesoderm
Term

pseudocoelomates

 

 

roundworms

Definition
body cavity formed from mesoderm and ectoderm layers. organism is fully functional.
Term

aceolomates

 

planarians!

Definition
lack body cavity altogether
Term
spiral cleavage
Definition
planes of cell division are that are diagonal to vertical axis of the embryo
Term
determinate cleavage
Definition
in animals with protostome development cleavage determines developmental fate of each embryo very early
Term
radial cleavage
Definition
cleavage plains are parallel or perpendicular to the vertical axis of the embryo
Term

indeterminate cleavage

 

 

makes identical twins possible

Definition
each cell retains the capacity to develop into a comlete embryo
Term
blastopore
Definition
the indentation that forms the archenteron during gastrulation
Term

  1. spiral cleavage
  2. determinate cleavage 
  3. mesoderm splits to form coelom
  4. mouth develops first from blastopore

Definition
protostome development 4 parts
Term

  1. radial cleavage
  2. indeterminate cleavage
  3. mesoderm buds to form coelom
  4. anus develops first from blastopore

Definition
deuterostome development 4 parts
Term
tight junctions
Definition
this junction fuses the plasma membranes cells to prevent fluid from leaking
Term
desosomes (anchoring junctions)
Definition
this junction functions like rivets, fastening cells together in strong sheet
Term
gap junction (communicating)
Definition
this junction allows cytoplasmic channels between cells.
