Animal Diversity
How did the animal kingdom evolve?
- Oldest fossils are 700 million years old
-Animals probably evolved from an ancestor
of a colonial choanoflagellate
protist
One hypothesis for the origin of
animals
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
• Development of Tissue Layers
• Patterns of Body Symmetry
• Development of a Body Cavity
• Body Segmentation
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Development of Tissue Layers
Most animals have tissues that arise from
three embryologic tissues layers:
• Ectoderm – produce skin and nervous
system
• Endoderm – produces GI tract
• Mesoderm – produces muscle, skeleton and
most organs
Three embryologic tissue layers
Ectoderm
Endoderm
Mesoderm
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Patterns of Body Symmetry
• Asymmetrical
• Bilateral symmetry
• Radial symmetry
Body symmetry
Radial = any cut
through main
body axis
produces mirror
image halves
Bilateral = a
cut through
main body
axis produces
right-left
halves
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Development of a Body Cavity:
• Allows independent movement of body
wall
• Cushions internal organs
• Provides a hydrostatic skeleton
• Increases flexibility and mobility
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Development of a Body Cavity:
• Coelomate – true body cavity fully lined
with mesoderm
• Pseudocoelomate – body cavity in direct
contact with gut
• Acoelomate – lack body cavity
Acoelomate
Pseudocoelomate
Coelomate
Coelomates: Protostomes VS Deuterostomes
Protostomes:
mesoderm forms
from mass of cells
between endoderm
and ectoderm
Deuterostomes:
mesoderm forms as
outpocketing of
gastrulation cavity

Deuterostomes
Visualizing Protostome & Deuterostome Development
Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Body Segmentation
• Most animals have segmented bodies
• Segmentation increases body flexibility
and mobility
Forms of asexual reproduction
• fission: splitting off of new individual from existing one,
parent cell divides into two parts
• budding: new individual grows from body of original,
can detach (solitary lifestyle) or remain attached
(colonial lifestyle)
• fragmentation: breaking of the body into several pieces,
each of which forms a complete adult (aka regeneration)
• gemmulation: release of specialized groups of cells that
are enclosed in a capsule and grow into new individuals
Sexual Reproduction
• Two haploid gametes (produced by meiosis) fuse to
form a diploid zygote.
• female gamete = ovum = unfertilized egg; usually large
and non-motile cell.
• male gamete = spermatozoan = small, usually
flagellated cell.
• Fertilization occurs in two ways:
– external fertilization -eggs & spermatozoa are shed into the
environment.
– internal fertilization -sperm are deposited or near the
female’s reproductive tract and egg and sperm unite within
the female’s body.

end

Hallmark characteristics of flatworms:
• Bilateral symmetry
• Three tissue layers
• Acoelomates – solid bodies without a body
cavity
Phylum Platyhelminthes
 flat, thin body and there are no spaces between tissue layers
therefore no cell is far from the environment, diffusion for
circulation and respiration
 most primitive animals w/ bilateral symmetry
 bilateral symmetry allow for further specialization w/ a
dorsal and ventral end, anterior and posterior end, allows
organism to respond more immediately to environment
 "brain"-collection of nerve cells at anterior end
• "cephalization" tendency towards brain formations

Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Development of
segmentation
Phylum Annelida
Earthwormsterrestrial worm
movement
Polychaetes –
marine segmented
worms swimming
Leeches
Segmentation:
The combination of a true coelom that acts as
a hydrostatic skeleton and segmentation
allows for controlled directed movements.
• A skeleton gives muscles something to
contract against and allows coordinated
movement.
• Segmented circular muscles along with
longitudinally directed muscles allows for
forward directed movements.
Phylum Annelida
 Coelomate: w/ all organs suspended in the body cavity by
an attached membrane “peritoneum”
 Have a closed circulatory system w/5 hearts which pump
blood through ventral vessel and blood returns to heart
through dorsal blood vessel
 Segmented repeating body parts: metamerism
evolutionary advantage: an animals can increase in size by
adding segments and the segments can become specialized
 Locomotion through unsegmented body parts
• Body= respiratory surface (can use gills)
• Earthworm Systems
• Ecological Importance of Annelids
Class Polychaetes
(greatest variety in annelids)
• Marine, can reach up to 3
meter VD.LS.4.11.16756

Major Trends in Animal Evolution:
Development of
jointed appendages
Phylum Arthropoda:
Arthropod =
“jointed foot”
Jointed appendages and
a hard exoskeleton has
made arthropods the
most successful phyla
of animals.
Exoskeleton
• chitinous exoskeleton (a cuticle
secreted by underlying epidermis
that contains chitin) chitin is a
polysacchride also found in the cell
walls of fungi
• the exoskeleton serves as an armor
to protect the soft body of the insect,
as well as to aid in mobility
• this outside skeleton must be shed
periodically as the athropod grow
the shedding is called “ecdysis”
External skeleton made of chitin allowed the
arthropods to inhabit the land:
• protection
• waterproofing
• anchor site for attachment of muscles
Disadvantage of an exoskeleton :
• most be shed to allow growth (molt)
• restricts movements around joints
• limits ultimate size of the organism (heavy)
Metamorphosis
• growth accompanied by ecdysis
(molting) of the exoskeleton, can
become 33% larger than before
the shed
Incomplete Metamorphosis
• Can grow by complete or
incomplete metamorphosis
• Butterfly emerging
Complete Metamorphosis
Introduction to Arthropods

 largest phylum, most successful & ubiquitous, 3x's all other
animals species
 coelomate
 exoskeleton w/ chitinous (polysaccharide) plates & hinges
which must be shed
 muscles attached to inner exoskeleton
 molting necessary, many larval stages, complete &
incomplete metamorphosis
 loss of metamerism: segments fused
 segmental structures (appendages) b/co struct & fnctally
diff.
Arthropods Videos
 modified head, thorax and abdomen (cephalothorax)
 nervous sys. w/ dorsal ant. brain -> ventral nerve
cord w/ ganglionic swellings in each segment
 open circ system, tissues bathed in blood

• 5 senses: compound & simple eyes, taste, smell
through pheromones, touch, hearing

Protostomes:
mesoderm forms
from mass of cells
between endoderm
and ectoderm
Deuterostomes:
mesoderm forms as
outpocketing of
gastrulation cavity
• Deuterostomes (echinoderms and chordates) develop the anus first,
then the mouth at the other end of the embryo. Deuterostomes are
coelomate animals these embryological characteristics:
– Radial cleavage in embryonic cell division: the daughter cells sit on top of
previous cells.
– Fate of cells is indeterminate; if embryonic cells are separated, each one
develops a complete organism.
– The blastopore is associated with the anus, and the second embryonic opening is
associated with the mouth.
Phylum Echinodermata
Sea star
Sea urchin
Brittle star
Sea Lily
Echinoderms:
• All are marine organisms
• Larvae are bilaterally symmetrical
• Adults are slow moving or sessile and have
have petamerous radial symmetry (although
they are not perfectly symmetrical)
• Embryologic development makes them more
similar to chordates than to the cnidarians
• Visualizing an Echinoderm
• Unique to echinoderms is the water vascular
system, a network of hydraulic canals branching
into extensions called tube feet.
– These function in locomotion, feeding, and gas exchange.
Echinos=spiny
Derma=skin
Echinoderms include : sea star, sea urchin, sea cucumber,
sand dollar, basket stars brittle stars
