A | B |
Porifera | Pore Bearing - Sponge |
Cnidarian | Stinging Cells - JellyFish |
Annelida | Segmented worm - earthworm |
Mollusk | Soft bodied; may posses a hard, calcified shell; snail, octopus, clam |
Arthropod | Jointed appendages; hard outer exoskeleton made of chitin; spiders, insects, crab, lobster, millipedes, centipedes |
Echinoderms | Spiny skinned - Starfish |
Radial Symmetry | body parts extend from center of body |
Bilateral Symmetry | Left and Right sides |
Asymmetrical | No defined shapeq |
Germ Layers | Layers of the embryo |
Ectoderm | outer layer of cells |
Mesoderm | middle layer of cells |
Endoderm | Inner layer of cells |
Terrestrial | Land |
Aquatic | Water |
Extracellular Digestion | digestion occurs outside the cells; broken down by specific organs |
Intracellular Digestion | food is broken down within cells |
Archaeocytes | special cells in Porifera for intracellular digestion |
Ganglia | Cluster of nerve cells |
Cephalization | Having a head area; sense organs are located in head area as are nerve cells - ganglia |
Blastula | Hollow ball of cells formed when zygote undergoes divisions |
Blastopore | Opening of the blastula |
Zygote | Fertilized egg |
One way digestive system | Organism has two openings - mouth and anus;nutrients travel in one direction |
Two way digestive system | One opening serves as an entrance and exit |
Invertebrate | Animal without a backbone |
T or F? If an invertebrate is bilateral, it is cephalicized. | True |
T or F? If an animal digest food extracellularly, it has digestive organs. | True |
T or F. The most important feature to form is multicellularity | True |
T or F. The next most important feature to evolve are tissues | True |
T or F. The Cambrian period NOT era gave rise to the invertebrates. It is also called the Cambrian explosion | True |
Trace Fossils | Tracks or furrows made by soft bodied animals |
Burgess Shale | In Canada; it is the best site of Cambrian Period invertebrates |
Differentiation | Specialized cells and tissues and organs |
Coelom | Fluid filled body cavity lined with mesoderm |
Acoelomate | Animals lacking a coelom |
Pseudocoelom | body cavity is lined PARTIALLY with mesoderm tissue |
True Coelom | Body cavity is entirely covered with mesoderm tissue |
Chitin | Polysaccharide; makes up the external skeleton of arthopods |
Exoskeleton | Hard OUTER covering |
Endoskeleton | Skeleton is inside organism |
Mantle | Thin layer of tissue - covers most of the mollusks body |
Gills | Organs found in aquatic animals; used for the exchange of gases with the water |
Book lungs | organs that have layers of respiratory tissue; used by some arthropods for the exchange of gases |
ARachnids | Class of spiders |
Crustaceans | Class of crabs and lobsters |
Tracheal tubes/ | Air filled tubes within insects |
Open Circulatory System | Blood is only partially contained in vessels; blood is pumped into a system of sinuses |
Closed Circulatory System | blood stays within blood vessels |
Excretion | Elimination of liquid or metabolic wastes |
Hydrostatic skeleton | muscles surround a fluid filled body cavity that supports the muscles; earthworms and some cnidarians |
External fertilization | Eggs of the female are fertilized outside the body |
Internal Fertilization | Eggs are fertilized within the body |
Protosome | This means that the blastopore forms the mouth |
Deuterosome | Blastopore forms the anus; Echinoderms are the only invertebrate that is a deuterosome |
Hermaphrodites | Animals that possess both male and female sex organs |
T or F. Muscles are specialized tissues used to move , breathe and pump blood | True |
T or F. Respiratory surfaces must be moist | True |
T or F. Sponges do NOT have a form of body symmetry | True |
T or F. Jelly fish (Cnidarian) do NOT have a mesoderm | True |
The simplest nervous system is called what? | Ganglia |
T or F. Sponges rely primarily on intracellular digestion | True |
T or F. In a closed circulatory system the blood stays in the blood vessels | True |
T or F. The loss of a true coelom did NOT occur during invertebrate evolution | True |
