Term
sponges- body plan.
Definition
spicules and protein in a gelatinous matrix act as a framework for thousands of collar cells with a sheet of flattened non flagellated cells attached- asymmetrical.
Term
sponges- feeding.
Definition
flagellated cells draw water through the pores where the cells filter food out of the water & pass it on to the amoeboid cells where it is processed.
Term
sponges- habitats.
Definition
mostly shallow tropical seas, some in deep sea trenches, icy antarctic seas, & fresh water.
Term
sponges- protection.
Definition
protein fibers & spicules of calcium carbonate or silica stiffen so the predator fells like it is eating glass splinters- some species secrete a slimy coating over the body while others make toxins or smelly compounds.
Term
sponges- reproduction (asexually).
Definition
reproduce by budding or fragmentation. small buds break off & grow into new sponges- some freshwater species make gemmules which is an encased clump of cells in a hardened coat that can survive until improved conditions.
Term
sponges- reproduction (sexually).
Definition
some release sperm directly into the water where currents will carry them to another sponge. when eggs of the same species are fertilized, they are kept inside the body until the zygote develops unto a ciliated larva which swims around before settling down.
Term
cniderians- body plan.
Definition
radial & tentacles with two tissue layers but no internal organs. they also have sensory sensory cells that contain nematocysts. contain a saclike gut in both medusa & polyp. medusae which look like bells or umbrellas move through that water with tentacles. polyps form external or internal skeletons which a tubular & attached to a substrate. the epidermis overs the surface of the body & contains many nematocysts while the gastrodermis lines the gut cavity which has gland cells that secrete digestive enzymes. a nerve net threads through th two epithelia & controls the contractile fragments in the epithelial cells which moves the body by the contractile cells working against the mesoglea to squeeze water out & drive it forward.
Term
cniderians- reproduction.
Definition
gonads form only in the polyps which forms a medusae & when two medusa meet, the egg get fertilized & the zygote forms into a planula which grows into a polyp.
Term
cniderians- habitats.
Definition
freshwater & seas.
Term
cniderians- protection.
Definition
nematocysts- thick walled defense mechanism that form in the sensory cells. when something touches the capsule's trigger (on the surface of the epidermis), the lid opens & the thread puts stinging barbs or toxins into whatever it hits.
Term
platyhelminthes- body plan.
Definition
three primary tissue layers (ectoderm, endoderm, & mesoderm.) bilateral & cehpalized animals with no coelom. ganglia of nerves for a brain with a pair of nerve cords that have lateral branching. tiny tubes (protonephridia) condom water & solute levels. segmented with proglottids.
Term
platyhelminthes.- feeding.
Definition
requires a host. latch on to the intestine with a scolex & diffuses nutrients across the body wall.
Term
platyhelminthes- habitats.
Definition
a host when mature & aquatic for its larvae along with a snail as it's intermediate host.
Term
annelids- body plan.
Definition
segmented, bilateral. muscles, blood vessels, nerves & other organs within each coelomic segment. Digestive system that runs through the entire body. closed circulatory system & many hearts. brain with two nerve cords for communication that extends down the body.
Term
annelids- feeding.
Definition
muscular pharynx squeezes moist, detritus soil down the gut.
Term
rotifers- body plan.
Definition
bilateral & cephalized with a fake coelom. complete digestive system, protonephridia controls water & solutes, ganglion at the head controls body activity, some have eyes.
Term
mollusks- body plan.
Definition
bilateral, soft bodies with a reduced coelom. They have a mantle which us a skirt like extension of the body mass. those with a head have tentacles & eyes. many have a shell. many have a radula for feeding & a type of gill for respiration.
Term
mollusks- feeding.
Definition
use a radula to feed on prey.
Term
cephalopods-
Definition
Were the superme predators of the seas. However, they when the competition for prey caused them to lose their shells & become more active. jet propulsion for locomotion.
Term
roundworms- body plan.
Definition
cylindrical body with bilateral features, tapered end, a complete gut & a false coelom.
Term
roundworms- feeding.
Definition
most are free living decomposers.
Term
roundworms- habitats.
Definition
free living & some can be parasitic ghat feed on blood & other tissues $ withdraw nutrients.
Term
roundworms- reproduction.
Definition
Females can release a thousand eggs that release through it's feces where it then enters a host.
Term
arthropods- body plan.
Definition
bilateral animals with a hardened jointe exoskeleton & specialized appendages. complete gut, reduced coelom, & an open circulatory. exoskeleton molt after each growth spurt.
Term
arthropods- metamorphosis.
Definition
when a juvinile changes into adult form & the body plan changes.
Term
crustaceans- body plan.
Definition
Two eyes, antennae, first leg, five walking legs, fused segments on cephalothorax, segmented abdomen, swimmerets & tail.
Term
crustaceans- feeding.
Definition
strong claws are used to collect food, Hawkins & foodhandling appendages.
Term
crustaceans- habitats.
Definition
nearly all in marine habitats.
Term
Crustaceans- protection.
Definition
Large claws intimidate other animals & are used to hurt predators.
Term
animals.
Definition
multicelled heterotrophs that ingest other organisms or a portion of them. most are motile. reproduce either a asexually or sexually. make ATP for energy by aerobic reputations.
Term
epithelium.
Definition
a sheetlike array of cells that covers the body surface or lines an inner cavity or a tube.
Term
gastrodermis.
Definition
lines the gut. Where food is digested & absorbed.
Term
connective tissue.
Definition
most with a matrix in which living cells & preteen fibers are embedded.
Term
connective tissue.
Definition
most with a matrix in which living cells & preteen fibers are embedded.
Term
ectoderm, endoderm, & mesoderm.
Definition
germ layers. ecto- the outer part of the epidermis & nervous system. endo- the start if the gut's inner lining & organs. meso- gives rise to many internal organs.
