Chapter 9
Multicellular and Tissue Levels of Organization
![Page 2: Chapter 9](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081604/568164c7550346895dd6df89/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Evolutionary Perspective• Porifera
– No tissues– Division of labor among independent cells– Independent origin from common animal ancestor– Choanoflagellate protists (?)
• Cnidaria and Ctenophora– Tissue level organization– Independent origins from common animal ancestor– Choanoflagellate protists (?)
• Origins of Multicellularity– At least 800 million years—Precambrian – Colonial hypothesis– Syncytial hypothesis

Phylum Porifera1. Asymmetrical or superficially radially
symmetrical2. Three cell types: pinacocytes,
mesenchyme cells, and choanocytes3. Central cavity, or a series of branching
chambers, through which water circulates during filter feeding
4. No tissues or organs

Cell Types, Body Wall, and Skeletons• Pinacocytes
– Outer surface– Some contractile, others may be specialized into porocytes
• Mesohyl– Jellylike middle layer
• Mesenchyme cells– Amoeboid cells– Reproduction, secreting skeletal elements, transporting and storing food,
form contractile rings• Choanocytes
– Flagellated– Collarlike ring of microvilli– Water currents for filter feeding
• Skeleton– Spicules– Spongin

Figure 9.6 Water Currents and Body Forms.
• Complex sponges have increased surface area for filtering large volumes of water.
![Page 11: Chapter 9](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081604/568164c7550346895dd6df89/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Maintenance functions• Filter feeding
– Bacteria, algae, protists, suspended organic matter– Trapped in choanocyte collar and incorporated into
food vacuole– Digestion by lysosomal enzymes and pH changes
• Nitrogeneous waste removal and gas exchange– Diffusion
• Coordination– Responses of individual cells (some coordination)
![Page 12: Chapter 9](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081604/568164c7550346895dd6df89/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Reproduction• Monoecious• Choanocytes (and sometimes ameboid
cells) lose collars and flagella and undergo meiosis.
• External fertilization and planktonic larvae in most
• Asexual reproduction– Gemmules– Freshwater and some marine
![Page 13: Chapter 9](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081604/568164c7550346895dd6df89/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

symmetry2. Diploblastic, tissue-level organization3. Gelatinous mesoglea between the
epidermal and gastrodermal tissue layers4. Gastrovascular cavity5. Nerve cells organized into nerve net6. Specialized cells, called cnidocytes, used
in defense, feeding, and attachment

Phylum Ctenophora• Cellular mesoglea and true muscle cells
suggest that members may be triploblastic.
• Locomotion by bands of cilia are called comb rows.
• Tentacles contain adhesive cells called colloblasts that capture prey.
• Monoecious with gastrodermal gonads– External fertilization leads to flattened larval
stage.

Further Phylogenetic Considerations• Porifera
– Oldest fossil deposits– Choanoflagellate ancestors– Increases surface-to-volume ratio in syconoid and leuconoid
body forms evolved in response to selection for increased size.
• Cnidaria– Radially symmetrical ancestor
• Minority view suggest bilateral ancestor.– Molecular data and morphology suggests relationships
shown in figure 9.23.• Ctenophora
– Relationships to other groups uncertain but probably distant
