TRANSCRIPT
Characteristics that differentiate animals:
• Levels of organization (cells, tissues, organs, organ systems)
• Body symmetry (none, radial or bilateral)
• Germ layers (endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm)
• Body cavity (acoelom, pseudocoelom, coelom)
• Type of body: Segmentation (repeating parts), cephalization (getting a head), limb formation (legs, flippers, wings)
• Systems (digestive, circulatory), Reproduction (asexual or sexual), Homeostasis (body temperature)
• Type of skeleton (endo- or exoskeleton)
• Incomplete digestive system – filter feeders
• Invertebrates
• Asexual and sexual reproduction
• Examples: sponges
Levels of Organization Specialized cells
Body Symmetry Asymmetrical (none)
Germ Layers Absent
Body Cavity ----
Embryological Development
----
Segmentation Absent
Cephalization Absent
• Invertebrates
• Examples: jellyfish, hydra, sea anemones, coral
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues
Body Symmetry Radial
Germ Layers Two
Body Cavity Acoelom (gastrovascular cavity digests and circulates nutrients)
Embryological Development
----
Segmentation Absent
Cephalization Absent
• Invertebrates
• Flattened body
• Includes many parasites
• Examples: planaria, tapeworms, many parasites
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Bilateral
Germ Layers Three
Body Cavity Acoelom (Gastrovascular cavity digests and circulates nutrients)
Embryological Development Protostome
Segmentation Absent
Cephalization Present! Can you see the head of these flatworms?
• Have a mouth and anus
• Sexual reproduction
• Ex: Ascaris is a parasitic roundwormthat lives in intestines ofpigs and humans
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Bilateral
Germ Layers 3 germ layers
Body Cavity Pseudocoelom
Embryological Development Protostome
Segmentation Absent
Cephalization Present (look for the mouth)
• Primitive circulatory system
• Reproductive openings
• Ex: earthworms, leeches
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Bilateral
Germ Layers Three
Body Cavity True coelom (complete digestive system)
Embryological Development
Protostome
Segmentation Present (ring-like segments)
Cephalization Present
• Some can move with a muscular foot
Squids and octopiClams and oystersSnails, slugsChitons
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Bilateral
Germ Layers Three
Body Cavity True coelom
Embryological Development Protostome
Segmentation No segmentation
Cephalization Present
• Most successful animal phylum based on species diversity and distribution
• Invertebrates
• Jointed appendages
• Exoskeleton
• Examples: insects, spiders, butterflies,crustaceans (lobster, crab), grasshoppers
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Bilateral
Germ Layers Three
Body Cavity True coelom
Embryological Development
Protostome
Segmentation Segmented body – head, thorax, abdomen
Cephalization Present
• Invertebrates
• Arms, and tube feet
• Complete digestive tract
• Closed circulatory system
• Ex: Starfish, sea urchin, sand dollar, sea cucumber
Levels of Organization Specialized cells, tissues, organs
Body Symmetry Radial (as adults)
Germ Layers Three
Body Cavity True coelom
Embryological Development
Deuterostome
Segmentation Absent
Cephalization Absent (as adults)
• Mostly vertebrates (includes invertebrate chordates too)
• Animals in this phylum have a dorsal hollow nerve cord (eventually becomes spinal cord)
• Don’t necessarily have a bony vertebral column
• Simple circulatory system
• Examples of some invertebratechordates: sea squirts, tunicates
• Ex. of vertebrate chordates in upcoming stations (10-17)
Tunicates
Sea squirts
(Vertebrates) Key Characteristics:
- Notochord replaced by cartilage or bony vertebral column
- 7 Major Classes within Vertebrata:
1. Agnatha (jawless fish)
2. Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fish)
3. Osteichthyes (bony fish)
4. Amphibia (amphibians)
5. Reptilia (reptiles)
6. Aves (birds)
7. Mammalia (mammals)
• No jaws
• No scales – have SKIN!
• 7 or 12 gill slits
• Continuous median fin
• Examples: Hagfish (body made of collagen - rare)Lamprey (has vertebrae)
The hagfish is black
• Flexible skeleton of cartilage
• Jaws and paired appendages
• Lateral line sensory system
• Scales
• 5 gill slits
• Ex: sharks, rays
• Bony skeleton
• Operculum (flap) protecting gills and allows fish to breathe without swimming
• Scales
• Different position of fins and mouth
• Swim bladder (derivative of lung)
• Ex: Eels, salmon, carp, catfish, walleye, cod
• Larva with functional gills
• Eggs deposited in water
• Undergo metamorphosis
• Develop lungs
• Four limbs
•Ex: frogs, toads,
salamanders, newts
Tadpole
• Internal fertilization
• Amniotic egg
• No larval stage
• Breathe air (lungs)
• Ectothermic (cold blooded)
• Epidermal scales
• Ex: turtles, crocodiles, snakes, lizards
• Forelimbs modified to wings
• Feathers
• Hollow bones
• Lay shelled eggs
• Endothermic (warm blooded)
• Ex: eagles, blue jays, pelicans, etc.
• Mammary glands (produce milk)
• Hair or fur
• Endothermic (warm blooded)
• Examples: humans, cats, dogs, squirrels, horses, etc.
