Bilateral Symmetry Cephalization (have a so
called head) Mesoderm tissue includes a
loose tissue (parenchyma) that fills spaces between specialized tissues, organs, and body wall.› May provide skeletal support, nutrient storage,
motility, transport of materials, oxygen storage, etc.

Most cells are close to external environment ∴ materials can pass easily into and out of their bodies (via diffusion)
Rely on Diffusion for respiration, excretion, and circulation

Mostly free-living bottom dwellers in freshwater and marine environments
Crawl over stones, sand, or vegetation
Named for the turbulence that their beating cilia create in the water

Over 3,000 species Few terrestrial species live in humid
tropics and subtropics Less than 1 cm long (rare
terrestrial/tropic = up to 60 cm long) First group of bilaterally
symmetrical animals to appear

Carnivores (small invert.),scavengers (dead), some herbivores (algae)
Sensory cells (chemoreceptors) on their heads help detect food far away
Digestive cavity has a single opening (or mouth) through which food and waste pass
![Page 14: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Pharynx – muscular tube that extends out of the mouth and pumps food into the digestive cavity or gut
› highly branched gut transports food to all parts of the body (this is lacking in many parasitic species)
![Page 15: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cilia on epidermal cells help to glide through the water and over the bottom of a stream or pond
A layer of mucus is laid down to aid in adhesion and help cilia gain traction

Muscle cells controlled by the nervous system allow them to twist and turn so that they are able to react rapidly to environmental stimuli› Dorsoventral muscles essential for
maintaining flatness (ie-for diffusion)

Do not have respiratory organs ∴ done via diffusion› Respiratory gases (CO2 and O2)
› Metabolic wastes (ammonia) Depends on environment
› Marine = osmotic equilibrium› Freshwater = hypertonic solutions
![Page 20: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Protonephridia is a network of fine tubules for excretion of metabolic wastes.
Flame cells are ciliated and induce currents to push fluids through tubules.

Subepidermal nerve plexus (resembles cnidarians but depends on species)› Mechanoreceptor (excited by pressure) at
anterior end detects body position(due to gravity)
› Cerebral ganglia – more centralized nerve net (“brain”)
› Longitudinal nerve cords – ladderlike appearance (evolutionary advancement to a nervous system)

Auricles – sensory lobes on side of head aid in food location (chemoreceptor)
Ocelli – eye spots; orient in direction of light (photoreceptor)
See how it works…

Asexual reproduction Budding or fission Regeneration
![Page 25: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Can reproduce either asexually or sexually› Asexual = planarian detaches its tail end and each half
regrows the lost parts (referred to as zooids).› Sexual = each Planaria gives and receives sperm.› Benefits to sexual over asexual?
Have both testes and ovaries (hermaphroditic) Eggs develop inside the body and are shed in
capsules called cocoons› Weeks later the eggs hatch and grow into adults.
Can also reproduce by regeneration (fragmentation) › If it is cut into two halves, both halves may become two
new Planaria.

8,000 parasitic species (aka – flukes)
Internal parasites (endoparasitic)
Complex life cycles specialized in parasitism in animal or human tissues
One or more suckers around anterior end (oral sucker)
Unsegmented
![Page 30: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Life cycle involves two - four hosts and a number of developmental stages, including two types of free-living larvae (most complex in the animal kingdom)
The definitive (final) host of adult is always a vertebrate
Snails are common intermediate hosts
![Page 31: 1. Triploblastic – have three primary germ layers 2. Acoelomate – without a coelom 3. Classified into three phyla – › Phylum Platyhelminthes (flatworms](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022103022/56649ce05503460f949aa68d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
1. Eggs reach freshwater and Miracidium (ciliated larva) swims out
2. Finds host (snail)3. Penetrates snail,
loses cilia, develops into a sporocyte (contain embryonic cells)
4. Develops into daughter sporocyte (hundreds can form from one miracidium)
5. Hundreds of next larval stage are produced (cercariae)
6. Cercariae leave the snail and find 2nd or final host
7. Penetrates host and becomes a Metacercaria
8. When the definitive host eats the 2nd intermediate host, it becomes an adult
