BIOL 152: Animal Diversity
spina bifida
|
congenital neural tube defect
caused by the incomplete closure of the fetus's spine during early pregnancy
lack of FOLIC ACID DURING PREGNANCY |
CHORDATE |
MEMBER OF THE PHYLUM CHORDATA, ANIMALS THAT AT SOME POINT DURING THEIR DEVELOPMENT HAVE A NOTOCHORD; A DORSAL, HOLLOW NERVE CHORD; PHARYNGEAL SLITS OR CLEFTS; AND A MUSCULAR, POST-ANAL TAIL.
|
Chondrichthyes
|
jawed fishes with cartilaginous skeletons
|
actinopterygii
|
ray finned fish with bony rays supporting fins
|
Actinistia
|
Coelacanths (bone and muscle in pectoral fins)
Outgroup to tetrapods(lobe finned) |
Echinoderms
|
Coelomates, deuterostomes
sea stars, brittle stars, sea cucumbers, urchins, sand dollars
bilaterally symmetrical larvae
five part adult body plan
water vascular system
sister group to chordates |
Coelomate
|
An animal with a true body cavity completely lined by mesoderm, the layers of which connect dorsally and ventrally to form mesenteries.
|
Cnidaria
|
- Corals, jellies, hydras
- Diploblastic, radial symmetry
- Gastrovascular cavity w/single opening that is the mouth and anus
-medusa=sexual/motile, polyp=asexual/sessile(immobile) |
partial metamorphosis
|
juveniles resemble adults and change gradually as they grow; molt to new stages; last molt produces a reproductive adult
|
complete metamorphosis
|
adult looks and functions differently from a larva
|
Craniates
|
-chordates with heads
-have a skull and a brain
-more active
-more extensive musculature
-have neural-crest cells
-includes vertebrates and hagfishes |
vertabrate
|
animal with a backbone; bilaterally symmetrical and have an endoskeleton
|
Gnathostomes |
Animals with jaws (jawed fish and other vertebrates)
|
Osteichthyans
|
Bony Fish
Have an ossified endoskeleton, have lungs or lung derivatives |
Lobe Fins
|
A series of rod-shaped bone in their muscular pectoral and pelvic fins.
Three lineages:
Coelacanth: deep sea dweller thought to be extinct.
Lungfishes: represented by a few southern hemispheres that inhabit stagnant waters.
Tetrapods: adapted to life on land during the mid-devonian and gave rise to terrestrial vertebrates. |
Tetrapods |
Amphibians and amniotes
-4 limbs with feet and digits
- neck mobile head
No gill slits |
Amniotes |
-All tetrapods except amphibians
-Synapomorphy: amniotic egg as reproductive structure |
Urochordata
|
tunicates
Notochord in larvae. Adult covered in opaque "tunic."
Most chordate synapomorphies are lost upon maturity. |
Tunicates
|
-non vertebrate chordate
-larva is free swimming
-adult is sessile and bag like
-both stages are filter feeders
-pharynx serves in both feeding and respiration |
Metazoa |
Multicellular animals; a major division of the animal kingdom
|
Eumetazoa
|
- innovation tissues-- specialized cells
- have true tissues and different types of organs |
Bilateria |
Animals that can be divided along a vertial plane at the midline to create two halves.
Two types: Protosomes or duterosomes |
Deuterostomia
|
First opening of blastopore becomes anus
Echinodermata, Chordata |
Lophotrochozoa
|
-Flatworms, rotifers, lophophorates, mollusks, and annelids
-Bilaterally symmerical
-Split into coelomates and acoloelomates |
ecdysozoa |
protostomes
-members shed their cuticle as they grow (molting) |
Porifera |
Sponges
Multicellular, but not organized into tissues
Asymmetric or irregular symmetry
Filter feeders
Choanocytes with flagella
Amoeboid cells
Spicules |
ctenophora |
comb jellyfish.
Eumetazoa
transparent, bioluminescent
gellatinous. self fertilize |
Platyhelminthes
|
Flatworm
Organ system level
Bilateral,Triploblastic
Gastrovascular cavity-acoelomate
Hydrostatic skeleton
Cephalization
Feed-pharynx
Gas exchange-diffusion
No circulatory system
sexually Hermaphroditic |
tape worm
|
is a flat worm parasite
|
Nematoda |
Often parasitic - pinworm, hookworm, trichinella
Cylindrical body, not segmented
Alimentary canal
No circulatory system |
Rotifera
|
Lophotrochozoans
pseudocoelomate |
Mollusca |
Eumetazoa, Bilateria, Protostomia, Lophotrochozoa
3 components of body plan: foot, mantle, visceral mass of organs |
Annelida |
invertebrate phylum of segmented worms, such as earthworms, have hemoglobin
|
Arthropoda
|
insects, spiders, mites, crabs shrimp, and centipedes
|
