Cards

Term
Body Plan
Definition
- is the particular structure and form and developmental traits that join a whole functional living animal
Term
Cephalization
Definition
- when animals that have bilateral symmetry ( arthopods & mammals) contain the sensory equipment that is concentrated at their anterior end that includes a central nervous system that is the (brain)
Term
Lophotrochozoa
Definition
- : Refers to the two different features observed in this clade, some lophotorochozoa such as ectoprocts develop into a structure that is a crown of ciliated tentacles that function for feeding. In the other phyla that includes molluscs and annelids go through a developmental stage called the trochopore larva which explains the name of lophotrochozoan
Term
Ecdysozoans
Definition
- A characteristic shared by nematodes, anthropods & other Ecdysozoans secrete external skeletons which can also be called exoskeletons. The animals grow out of it’s old exoskeleton and secretes a larger one. And the process of shedding an old exoskeleton is called ecdysis.
Term
Nutrition Mode
Definition
- animals do not make all their own organic molecules like plants
- they ingest them by either eating other living organisms or by eating nonliving organic material
- most animals do not feed by absorption, instead animals ingest their food and then use enzymes to digest it within their bodies
Term
Cleavage
Definition
- process of cytokinesis in animal cells, it is the pinching of the plasma membrane
Term
Blastula
Definition
- hollow ball of cells that marks the end of the cleavage stage during early embryonic development in animals
Term
Gastrulation
Definition
- embryonic stage in animal development, a series of cell and tissue movements in which the blastula stage embryo folds inward, which produces a three-layered embryo the gastrula
Term
Gastrula
Definition
- embryonic stage in animal development encompassing the formation of 3 layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, & endoderm
Term
Radial Symmentry
Definition
- when an animal does not have a right or left side & an imaginary slice through the central axis divides the animal into mirror images
- top & bottome
Term
Bilateral Symmentry
Definition
- has left & right side an imaginary cut divides the animal into mirror-image halves
- 2 axis of orientation, top & bottom, front & back
Term
Dorsal
Definition
- bilateral
- topside
Term
Ventral
Definition
- bilateral
- bottomeside
Term
Anterior
Definition
- bilateral
- frontal
Term
Posterior
Definition
- bilateral
- behind
Term
Ectoderm
Definition
- located in the gastrula
- germ layer covering surface of embryo
- gives rise to outer covering of the animal & in some phyla the central nervous system
Term
Endoderm
Definition
- located in gastrula
- innermost germ layer
- lines the pouch that forms during gastrulation (the archenteron) & gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract (or cavity)
- and organs such as the liver and lungs of vertebrates
Term
Diplobastic
Definition
- have only the ectoderm & endoderm
- animals like that include cnidarians (jellies & corals & comb jellies
- some do have a mesoderm but not as well developed as the mesoderm of animals that are triploblastic
Term
Mesoderm
Definition
- bilateral symmetrical animals
- is the 3rd germ layer which fills much of the space between the ectoderm & endoderm
- forms the muscles & most other organs between the digestive tract & the outer covering of the animal
Term
Tripoloblastic
Definition
- 3 germ layers
- Bilateral symmetry
- mesoderm forms muscles & other organs
- include broad range of animals from flatworms to arthropods to vertebrates
Term
Acoeloomatesmate
Definition
- when a triboblastic animal lack a body cavity
Term
Pseudocoelmates
Definition
- when tripoblastic animals have a body cavity that is formed from mesoderm & endoderm. cavity is called (pseudocoelom)
- fully functional body cavity
Term
Body Cavity
Definition
- most tripoblastic animals have this
- a fluid or air filled space between the digestive tract and the outer body wall
Term
Coelomates
Definition
- body cavity = coelom
- forms from tissue derived of the mesoderm
- inner & outer layers of tissue that surround the cavity connect & form structures that suspend the internal organs
Term
Protostome Development
Definition
- in animals, developmental mode that is distinguished by the development of the mouth from the blastopore; often catagorized as by spiral cleavage & by the body cavity forming when solid masses of mesoderm split
Term
Deutoersome development
Definition
- developmental mode in animals that is the development of the anus from blastopore that is characterized by radial cleavage and by the body cavity forming as outpockets of mesodermal tissue
Term
Indeterminate Cleavage
Definition
- type of embryonic development in deuterostomes in which each cell is produced by early cleavage divsions retains the capacity to develop in a complete embryo
Term
Determinate Cleavage
Definition
- type of embryonic development that in protostomes that rigidly casts the developmental fate of each embryonic cell very early
Term
Archenteron
Definition
- the endoderm lined cavity, formed during gastrulation, that develops into the digestive tract of the animal.
Term
Blastopore
Definition
- in the gastrula
- the opening of the archenteron that typically develops into the anus in deuterostomes and the mouth in protosomes
Term
Points of Agreement in Phylogeny
Definition
1. All animals share a common ancestor
2. Sponges are basal Animals
3. Eumetazoa is a clade of animals with true tissues
4. Most animal phyla belong to the Blade Bilateria
Term
Trochophore larva
Definition
- distinctive larval stage observed in some lophotrochozoan animals, including annelids & molluscs
