evolved from a common flagellated unicellular
ancestor
– Independent evolution of multicellularity

crustaceans and insects; in the radula of
molluscs; and in the beaks of cephalopods |

Term
|
Definition
- The zygote undergoes cleavage, a succession of mitotic cell divisions, leading to the formation of a multicellular stage called the blastula, which takes the shape of a hollow ball in many animals. - During gastrulation, layers of embryonic tissues that will develop into adult body parts are produced. -The resulting development stage is called a gastrula.(Gastrulation)

What regulates animal development? How common is it? How does it work? |
|
Definition
Animals share a unique homeobox-containing family of genes known as Hox genes. o All eukaryotes have genes that regulate the expression of other genes. o Many of these regulatory genes contain common modules of DNA sequences called homeoboxes. o Because all animals share Hox genes, this gene family may have arisen in the eukaryotic lineage that gave rise to animals. • Hox genes play important roles in the development of animal embryos, regulating the expression of dozens or hundreds of other genes that influence animal morphology.

What is a body plan? What are the two main types? |

Definition
A body plan is a set of morphological and developmental traits integrated into a functional whole—the living animal. • Like all organismal features, animal body plans have evolved over time.
-bilateral symmetry and radial symmetry
|
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Some animals, such as sea anemones, have radial symmetry. These animals have top (mouth) and bottom sides, but not front and back ends and no left and right sides.
|
|
|
Term
Describe bilateral symmetry |
|
Definition
Many animals have bilateral symmetry. A bilateral animal has two axes of orientation: front to back and top to bottom. Bilaterally symmetrical animals have dorsal (top) and ventral (bottom) sides, left and right sides, and anterior (head) and posterior (tail) ends. Linked with bilateral symmetry is cephalization, an evolutionary trend toward the concentration of nervous and sensory equipment on the anterior end.
|
|
|
Term
What is spiral cleavage? What is determinate cleavage? What is this development most common with? |
|
Definition
Many protostomes undergo spiral cleavage, in which the planes of cell division are diagonal to the vertical axis of the embryo. • Some protostomes also show determinate cleavage, whereby the developmental fate of each embryonic cell is determined very early.
|
|
|
Term
What is radial cleavage? What is indeterminate cleavage? What is this development most common with? |
|
Definition
Most deuterostomes undergo radial cleavage, in which the cleavage planes are parallel or perpendicular to the vertical axis of the embryo. Most deuterostomes show indeterminate cleavage, whereby each cell in the early embryo retains the capacity to develop into a complete embryo. o The indeterminate cleavage of the human zygote makes identical twins possible. o Indeterminate cleavage also explains the developmental versatility of embryonic “stem cells,” which may provide new ways to overcome a variety of diseases, including type 1 diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease.
|
|
|
Term
What are the two different types of coelom formations? What do they mean? How do they seperate the two development styles? |
|
Definition
In gastrulation, the developing digestive tube of an embryo initially forms as a blind pouch, the archenteron.
-in protostome, initially solid masses of mesoderm split to form the coelomic activities; This is called schizocoelous
-in deuterostomes the mesoderm buds from the wall of the archenteron and hollows to become the coelomic cavites; this is termed enterocoelous. |
|
|
Term
What are true tissues? Who lacks them? |
|
Definition
Animal body plans also vary according to the organization of the animal’s tissues. o True tissues are collections of specialized cells isolated from other tissues by membranous layers. • Sponges and a few other groups lack true tissues.
|
|
|
Term
What are germ layers what do they do? |
|
Definition
As development progresses, germ layers, concentric layers of embryonic tissue, form various tissues and organs. o Ectoderm, the germ layer covering the surface of the embryo, gives rise to the outer covering and, in some phyla, to the central nervous system. o Endoderm, the innermost germ layer, lines the developing digestive tube, or archenteron, and gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract and the organs derived from it, such as the liver and lungs of vertebrates.
|
|
|
Term
What are animals with only two germ layers called? |

Term
What are the animals with three germ layers called? What is this third germ layer? What does it do? |
|
Definition
-Other animals are triploblastic and have three germ layers. - In these animals, a third germ layer, the mesoderm, lies between the endoderm and the ectoderm. -The mesoderm develops into the muscles and most other organs between the digestive tube and the outer covering of the animal. -Triploblasts include a broad range of animals, from arthropods to vertebrates. |
|
|
Term
What do most triploblastic animals posses? What is the name for these animals? |
|
Definition
Most triploblastic animals possess a body cavity (a fluid- or air-filled space separating the digestive tract from the outer body wall) known as a coelom. -A “true” coelom forms from tissue derived from mesoderm. - The inner and outer layers of tissue that surround the coelom connect dorsally and ventrally and form structures that suspend the internal organs. - Animals that possess a true coelom are known as coelomates.
|
|
|
Term
What are animals with out "true" coeloms called? What makes them not true coelmates? |
|
Definition
Some triploblastic animals have a cavity formed from mesoderm and endoderm. o Such a cavity is a “pseudocoelom,” and animals that have one are called pseudocoelomates. o A pseudocoelom is a fully functional body cavity, despite its name.
-only partially lined by mesoderm tissues
|
|
|
Term
What are animals that lack colons called? |
|
Definition
Some triploblastic animals lack a coelom. These animals, known as acoelomates, have a solid body without a body cavity.
|
|
|
Term
What are some functions of body cavities? |
|
Definition
• A body cavity has many functions. o Its fluid cushions the suspended organs, helping to prevent internal injury. o In soft-bodied coeleomates, the noncompressible fluid of the body cavity can function as a hydrostatic skeleton against which muscles can work. o The presence of a body cavity enables the internal organs to grow and move independently of the outer body wall. • Current research suggests that true coeloms and pseudocoeloms have evolved many times in the course of animal evolution. o Thus, the terms coelomate and pseudocoelomate refer to grades, not clades.
