Transcript Animal Phyla PowerPoint

Parazoa – Phylum Porifera
Sponges
 Loosely organized and lack tissues
 Multicellular with several types of cells
 8,000 species mostly marine
 Adults sessile, larvae free-swimming


Phylum
Porifera

Radiata – Phyla Cnidaria and
Ctenophora



Radial symmetry
Mostly marine
Only 2 embryonic germ layers – diploblastic
 Ectoderm



and endoderm
Mesoglea connects 2 layers
Gastrovascular cavity for extracellular digestion
True nerve cells arranged in nerve net
 No
central control organ
4
Phylum Cnidaria

2 different body forms
polyp – tubular body with tentacles
surrounding opening (mouth and anus)
 Motile medusa – umbrella-shaped body with a
mouth on the underside surrounded by
tentacles
 Sessile

Cnidocytes contain nemotocysts
 Hairlike trigger – cnidocil
 Some sticky while other sting

Simple muscles and nerves
 Not
true muscles with mesoderm

Phylum Platyhelminthes







Flatworms
Lack a specialized respiratory or circulatory
system to transport gases
Bilaterally symmetrical with a head
First with 3 embryonic germ layers – triploblastic
Mesoderm key innovation – led to more
sophisticated organs
Acoelomate – lacking fluid-filled cavity
Some are important parasites

Phylum Nematoda
Roundworms
 In nearly all habitats from poles to tropics
 Over 100,000 species
 Tough cuticle covers body
 Longitudinal but not circular muscles
 Pseudocoelom acts as hydrostatic
skeleton and circulatory system
 Complete digestive tract

12
Phylum Rotifera





Named for ciliated crown or corona
1800 species – mostly freshwater
Digestive tract with mouth and anus – mastax
Pseudocoelom
Reproduction unique
 Parthenogenesis
– amictic eggs – unfertilized diploid
eggs
 Mictic eggs –haploid eggs become males
14

Phylum Mollusca



Over 100,000 species
Soft body with, protective external shell*****
Body has 3 parts
 Foot,


visceral mass and mantle
Eucoelomate
Open circulatory system

Fiorito and Scotto’s Experiments Showed
Invertebrates Can Exhibit Sophisticated
Observational Learning Behavior
Octopuses trained to attack red or white ball
using reward and punishment
 Classical conditioning
 Color blind so must see relative brightness
of balls
 Observer octopuses watched trained
octopuses attack ball
 Observers learned faster than original
training

Phylum Annelida


Rings are distinct segments separated
by a septum
Segmentation has advantages
Repetition of components provides backup
2. Coelom acts as hydrostatic skeleton
3. Permits specialization
1.

Double transport system

Circulatory system and coelomic fluid carries
nutrients, wastes and respiratory gases
22
24
Digestive system complete and
unsegmented
 Sexual reproduction involves 2 individuals
(sometimes separate sexes other
hermaphroditic) with internal fertilization
 Asexual reproduction by fission
 15,000 species
 All annelids except leeches have setae on
each segment
 3 classes – Polychaeta, Oligochaeta and
Hirudinea

25
Phylum Arthropoda
Perhaps most successful phylum
 ¾ of all described living species
 Success related to body plan of all major
biomes
 Exoskeleton made of chitin and protein

 Can
be extremely tough or soft and flexible
 Relatively impermeable to water
26
Segmented with appendages for
locomotion, food handling, or reproduction
 Tagmata – fused body segments
 Extensive cephalization

 Well
developed organs for sight, touch, smell,
hearing and balance
 Compound eyes – ommatidia

Sophisticated brain with 2 or 3 ganglia
connected to several smaller ventral nerve
ganglia
27
Open circulatory system
 Gas exchange – gills, tracheal system with
spiracles or book lungs
 Complex digestive system
 Excretion – metanephridia or Malpighian
tubules
 6 main classes – Trilobita, Arachnida,
Diplopoda, Chilopoda, Insecta and
Crustacea


Exoskeleton
Regional Specialization
 Restriction
 Divergence
 Fusion

Internal Anatomy
31

Trilobita
 Extinct
early arthropods, bottom feeders, little
specialization of body segments

Arachnida
 Spiders,
scorpions, ticks and mites
 2 tagmata- cephalothorax and abdomen
32

Diplopoda – millipedes
2

pairs of legs per segment, herbivorous
Chilopoda – centipedes
1
pair of legs per segment, carnivorous
33

Insecta
 More
species of insects than all other animal
species combined
 Wings crucial to success – outgrowths of body
wall
 35 orders – differences in wings and
mouthparts
 Separate sexes with internal fertilization
 Metamorphosis
Complete – 4 stages with adult and larval stages
very different
 Incomplete – 3 stages with young resembling
miniature adults

34
35

Crustacea
 Crabs,
lobsters, barnacles and shrimp
 Marine, fresh water and terrestrial
 Unique 2 pair of antennae
 Mandibles, maxillae and maxillipeds
 Swimmerets
 Cuticle covering head extends over
cephalothorax
 Nauplius larvae very different from adult

Deuterostomia: Echinodermata
and Chordates

Phylum Echinodermata
 Modified

radial symmetry – 5 parts
Secondary – larvae are bilateral
 Cephalization
absent
 No brain – simple nervous system
 Endoskelton covered with spines and
pedicellariae
 Water vascular system with tube feet
functions in movement, gas exchange and
feeding
39
Echinodermata
No excretory organs – respiration and
excretion by diffusion
 Autotomy – intentionally detach body part
that will later regenerate
 Reproduce sexually with separate sexes
 External fertilization


4 key distinguishing innovations
Notochord – single flexible rod
Dorsal hollow nerve cord
Pharyngeal slits
Postanal tail
All chordates exhibit these at some time during
development
Subphylum Vertebrata – fish, birds,
amphibians, reptiles, mammals
