Chapter 24- The Invertebrates

animals that do not have a backbone

invertebrates

multicelled heterotrophs that move about during part or all of the life cycle

animals

most animal cells are organized as ____, consisting of one or more cell types organized to perform a specific function

tissues

jellyfish and hydras have what type of symmetry?

radial symmetry

most animals have what symmetry?

bilateral symmetry

in most bilateral animals, nerve cells are concentrated at the head end

cephalization

most animals have this that opens at the body surface

gut

cavity lined by mesodermal tissue

coelom

cavity that is partially lined

pseudocoelom

have no body cavity

acoelomates

first opening in the embryo becomes the mouth, the second becomes the anus

protostomes

first opening in the embryo becomes the anus, second becomes the mouth

deuterostomes

collared flagellate" the modern protists most closely related to animals

choanoflagellates

sponges are part of which phylum?

phylum porifera

animals that attach to seafloor or other surfaces

sessile animals

animals that produce both eggs and sperm

hermaphrodites

zygote develops into a free-living, ciliated ____

larva

cnidarians are part of which phylum?

phylum cnidaria

a tentacle-ringed orifice opens into a _____ that functions in digestion and gas exchange

gastrovascular cavity

jellyfishes, are bell shaped and drift

medusa

sea anemones are tubular with one end usually attached to a surface

polyps

cells with stinging organelles, triggered by contact, used in feeding or defense

nematocysts

simple nervous system of interconnecting nerve cells extending through the tissues

nerve net

fluid-filled structure moved by contractile cells

hydrostatic skeleton

flatworms (phylum ____) have a three-layer embryo that developed into an adult with many organ systems but no coelom

platyhelminthes

annelids (phylum ___) are bilateral worms with a coelom, a closed circulatory system, and a segmented body; typically with chaetae (chitin reinforced bristles)

annelids

a band of cilia above its mouth forms during polychaete development

trochopore larva

mollusks are part of which phylum?

phylum mollusca

covers internal organs, secretes a shell

mantle

for respiration in aquatic species

gills

feed using a hard ____

radula

eight overlapping plates

chitons

snails, slugs, undergo torsion during development- the body mass twist, putting previously posterior parts, including the anus, up above the head, include the only terrestrial mollusks

gastropods

mussels, clams, oysters, hinged, two-part shell

bivalves

squids, octopuses, large, fast and smart, closed circulatory system

cephalopods

tiny bilateral animals, have a pseudocoelom, but are genetically closest to annelids and mollusks

rotifers

tiny bilateral animals, have a coelom and molt, and are probably relatives of roundworms and insects

tardigrades

roundworms (phylum ____) are unsegmented pseudocoelomate worms with a secreted cuticle that is molted

nematoda

are the most diverse animal phylum with more than a million species

phylum arthropoda

detect and touch chemicals

antennae

changing of body plans, example- caterpillar to butterfly

metamorphosis

have a three part body plant: the head has compound eyes, a pair of antennae, and specialized mouthparts, the thorax has three pairs of legs, some have wings, Malpighian tubes in the abdomen eliminate wastes and conserve water, a system of tracheal tubes

insects

have "spiny skins" embedded with interlocking spines and plates of calcium carbonate

echinoderms

they are brainless and have a unique ______ system for locomotion

water-vascular
