Annelides
Mollusks
Arthropods
Closed vascular system
Trochophore larva lost
Mantle
Jointed appendage
Veliger larva
Exoskeleton
Radula
Metamerism
Trochphore larva
schizocoelom
Protostome mode of developement
Assumed ancestral character:bilateral symmetry, mouth and anus
Definitions
* Protostome (Schizocoelomate):
multicellular metazoans with a coelom formed by
splitting in the mesoderm layer
*Trochophore:
ciliated larval stage
*Metamerism:
body segmentation. Coelom in each segment is separated
from the other.Segmentation allow better control of body
movement and function.
*Serially homologous
structures share a common origin through segmental
duplication.
Definitions
*Mantle:
skirt-like epidermal enlargement that surround the
viscera and is responsible for synthesis of the shell
* Radula:
tongue-like structure formed by a belt of tissue covered
with chitinous teeth.
*Setae:
chitinous bristles on each segment used for burrowing.
*Jointed exoskeleton:
hard chitinous plates separated by flexible membranes
Annelids, Mollusks and
Arthropods
* Grouped together b/c they evolved three shared derived
characters
1- Trochophore larva
2- Schizocoelom
3- protostome mode of development
Mollusks
* They evolved
1- mantle
2- veliger larva (certain type of trochophore)
3- radula
*They feed on algae using the radula and exchange gases
using gills
*The foot (ventral mass of muscle) is used for locomotion
Radula
heart of a clam
mantle
Mollusks
They include
1-Polyplacophora (chitons)
-no distinct head
-8 shell plates
-large foot
2-Gastropoda (snails)
-distinct head
-spiral shell
-U-shaped gut
3-Bivalvia (clams, oysters)
- two parts shell
-filter feeders
Mollusks
4-Cephalopoda(octopus, squid)
-adapted for free swimming (jet propulsion of water)
-muscular mantle
-foot modified into multiple arms
(8 in case of octopus and 8+2 tentacles in squid)
-horny parrot-like beak adapted for predation
-squid eyes are analogous to vertebrate eyes
- the pen is a chitineous structure homologous to the
exoskeleton of the arthropods and anologous to the
notochord of vertebrates
Annelids
*they are
-metameric scchizocoels
-nerves, muscles, nephridial tubes
and blood vessels are serially
homologous
-closed vascular system
-appendages on each segment include
parapodia and/or setae
-well developed digestive system(crop,gizzard,
stomach and intestine)
-gas exchange through body surface
Annelids
They include
1-Polychaeta (marine fanworms)
2-Oligochaeta(earthworms)
3-Hirudinea(leeches)
-lost setae and move by
undulatory swimming
- it has some therapeutic indications
(venous congestion to areas with
good arterial supply)
Arthropods
* They are
-metameric schizocoel
-segmentation is less regular(fused or lost)
-lost trochophore larval stage
-modification of the appendages (sensing, collection of
food, grinding food, defense, transfer of gametes or
aeration
-ancestral open vascular system
-jointed exoskeleton
-complex gas exchange organs
-serially homologous appendages
Arthropods
* They include
1-Chelicerata (spider, mites and ticks)
-chelicerae
-cephalothorax and abdomen
2-Crustacea (lobsters, crayfish and crabs)
-aquatic
-2 pairs of antennae
-use mandibles to crush food
-gills
-head, thorax and abdomen
-biramous appendages
Arthropods
3-Uniramia (insects)
-unbranched appendages
-mouth with pair mandible and two pairs of maxillae
-pair of antennae
-branching gas-filled tubes
-head, thorax and abdomen
What should I do
1- dissect formaline fixed earthworm
2- dissect fresh squid
3- clams and grasshoppers also available
4-demo (live earthworm, leeches, hissing roaches)
5-Sonoran arthropod studies institute cart (bug cart)
