Related to annelids; Peanut worms
Term
Echiura
Definition
Related to annelids; Spoon worms
Term
Proboscis

How Nemertean ribbon worms eat
Term
Metamere
Definition
Segment of an annelid; separated by a septum
Term
Metanephridia
Definition
Used for excretion of nitrogenous waste from metamere; Regulation of internal salinity in facultative regulators
Term
Setae
Definition
Projection from metamere; on polychaetes, they are bristles on the parapodia
Term
Parapodia
Definition
Projections from metamere on polychaetes; contain setae or chetae and also contain gills
Term
Ganglia
Definition
In pairs, coordinate activity and locomotion in metameres; joined by paired ventral nerve cords
Term
Circular and longitudinal
Definition
Types of muscles in an annelid
Term
Hydrostatic skeleton
Definition
Type of skeleton in annelids; allows movement by opposing longitudinal and circular muscles or peristaltic contractions
Term
Lateral undulation
Definition
Movement pattern in aquatic annelids
Term
Closed circulatory system
Definition
Type of circulatory system in annelids
Term
5
Definition
Number of hearts in an earthworm
Term
Facultative regulation
Definition
Mechanism for adapting to changes in salinity in surrounding environment
Term
Nephridiopore
Definition
Tubules through which wastes are removed from the coelom; surrounded by capillaries
Term
Coelom
Definition
Body cavity between internal organs and body wall
Term
Zooid
Definition
An asexually budded clone
Term
Epitoke
Definition
Gamete-filled sex organism with enlarged eyes and parapodia; only exist to shed gametes and die
Term
Anterior metameres
Definition
Where eggs and sperm are made
Term
Gonoduct
Definition
Ducts through eggs and sperm pass; lined up in mating earthworms
Term
Clitellum
Definition
Produces the mucus cocoon that envelops the fertilized eggs in earthworms; Gives the clade its name
Term
Errant polychaete
Definition
Type of polychaetes that actively move around with their parapodia
Term
Sea mouse
Definition
Big hairy beast of an errant polychaete
Term
Tentacles and eyes; large jaw from an extrudable pharynx
Definition
How errant polychaetes find and eat prey
Term
Feather duster, plume worm, christmas tree worm
Definition

Term
Filter feeding
Definition
How sedentary polychaetes feed
Term
Shadow reflex
Definition
When sedentary polychaetes sense light or dark, they withdraw their plumes
Term
Tubes made of CaCO3, sand, or leathery proteins, or coiled shells on rocks or mollusk shells
Definition
The structures inside which sedentary polychaetes live
Term
Clitellata
Definition
Earthworms and Leeches
Term
Earthworm characteristics
Definition
Hermaphroditic; short bristles instead of parapodia; Store food in a crop and then grind it in a gizzard
Term
Leech characteristics
Definition
Lack setae; suckers on ends; jaws to pierce prey; lack septa; specialized saliva
Term
1)anesthetic
2)capillary dilator
3)anticoagulant
Definition
Contents of clitellate leech saliva
Term
Archeobacteria
Definition
1˚ producers at sea floor rift zones, where H2S and CH4 are released
Term
Sulfides
Definition
The chemicals from which non-photosynthetic, benthic 1˚ producers Archeobacteria derive their energy
Term
Deep sea vents, oil drilling platforms, sunken ships, and whale carcasses
Definition
Places where Archaeobacteria can form communities
Term
Pogonophorans
Definition
Benthic tube worms that live near sulfur-rich deep-sea vents; Tentacles take up H2S for symbiotic chemo-synthetic bacteria; "Bearded worms"
Term
Pogonophoran characteristics
Definition
Lack mouth or digestive system; Capture sulfides (H2S) with hemoglobin for symbiotic bacteria; Tentacles bright red; Segmented posterior
Term
Bryozoans
Definition
Moss animals; AKA Ectoprocta; Resemble colonial anthozoans and hydrozoans
Term
Bryozoan characteristics
Definition
Exoskeleton made of protein or calcium carbonate; Closable operculum; Specialized zooids for feeding/defense/attachment/reproduction
Term
Brachiopods
Definition
Lamp shells; Resemble bivalves but aren't laterally symmetrical; Extinct; Calcium phosphate shells;
Term
Lophophorates
Definition
Bryozoans and brachipods; Have ciliated tentacles and are a side clade to the mollusc-annelid lineage
