Cards

Term
2 Annelid clades
Definition

Clitelleta (earthworms & leeches)

Polychaeta (marine worms)

Term

Who live in bearded worms?

What do they do there?

Definition
Chemosynthetic Archea convert hydrogen sulfide into energy for the host. Thus, the worms need no digestive track, mouth, anus etc. These worms contain hemoglobin, and have segmented posterior. Hence, an Annelid.
Term

What are the segments of worms called?

What separates the segments?

Definition
Metameres are seperated by septum=metamerization
Term
Synapomorphies of annelids
Definition

Metamerization.

Setae extending from Parapodia. Water regulation and excretion by Metanephridia out nephridiopores.

Ganglia coordinate locomotion hydrostatic skeleton with longitudinal and circular muscles. Closed Circulatory system[image]

Term
What is the difference between Errant Polychaetes and Sedentary Polychaetes?
Definition

Errant: sensory organs, parapodia with prominent setae all needed to be ACTIVE PREDATORS

Sedentary: (think sediment) only have shadow reflex, filter feed, reduced setae, many protect themselves in tubes or shells: such as the SPIROBIS species[image][image]

Term
What was Darwin's crazy idea?
Definition
earthworms are good! they mix topsoil w/deep soil. bring potassium and phosphorus to soil from their digestion.
Term

3 characteristics of Leeches.

What ar they missing?

What clade are they in?

Definition

Saliva contains 3 things: anasthetic, capillary dilator, anti-coagulant.

Lack septa. 

Hirudinea, a Clitellata subclade.

Term
Name 3 cousin clades.
Definition

Nemertia (ribbon worms)

Sipuncula (peanut worm)

Echiura is closest (spoon/Fat Innkeeper Worm)

[image][image]

Term
Synapomorphy of Sipuncula, Echiura and Nemertia clades
Definition
Proboscis to catch food
Term
Example of Sipuncula and a distinguishing characteristic.
Definition
Peanut worm..a.k.a butthead "figure 8" digestive track puts mouth and anus at same end.[image]
Term
Synapomorphy of Nemertians
Definition
stylet on tip of proboscis (ex: Ribbon Worms) [image]
Term

How do earthworms reproduce?

Definition
Hermaphrodites. fertilized eggs are shed into a mucus cocoon secreted from the clitellum.
Term
What is the difference between zooids and epitokes?
Definition
Zooids are clones that are somewhat attached still. Epitokes are swimming sex organs w/eyes and parapodia. they swim up and shed the gametes..then die.[image]
Term
What is the mother clade of annelid?
Definition
Lophotrochozoa
Term

Where can you find a spoon worm around here?

What is its clade name?

Definition
Echiura is the clade. Elkhorn Slough is the place
Term
How do spoon worms feed?
Definition
paristaltic body waves pump water through their mucus net to trap detritus (organic decomposing matter).
Term
Can a female spoone worm rightfully call a male a parasite?
Definition
yes. males are dwarf males w/o much more than reproductive organs. they live inside the female. without the female they could not exist.
Term
How do spoon worms determine their sex?
Definition
if a young'n lands in the sediment it becomes female: if on the proboscis of a female it becomes a parasitic male.[image]
Term
[image] Who is this and what is special about its digestive tract?
Definition
Sipunculid Peanut worm. They have a figure 8 digestive tract, thereby having a mouth near their anus.
Term
How do peanut worms feed?
Definition
most filter feed with frilled tentacles. they evert their probuscus (introvert) and can catch large prey such as snails.
Term
In what clade would you find a ribbon worm?
Definition
Nemertean
Term
Describe feeding habits of most ribbon worms.
Definition
Carnivorous: many have a neurotoxin injecting proboscis.
Term
what is the use of a nephridiopore?
Definition
To excrete metabolic wastes.[image]
Term
List the subclades of Clitellata.
Definition
Oligochaeta and Hirudinia[image][image]
Term
List the types of Polycheata.
Definition
Errant, Sedentary, & beard worms
Term
Give an example of a Oligochaete Clitellate.
Definition
earthworm
Term
Give an example of a Hirudinian Clitellate.
Definition
leeches
Term
In what clade does the sea mouse belong?
Definition
Polychaeta Errantia[image]
Term
[image] What is this and in what clade does it belong?
Definition
Sea Mouse. Errant Polychaete.
Term
[image] What is going on here?
Definition
Worm Sex. double the organs, double the reproductivity, double mint gum.
Term
How do errant polychaetes feed?
Definition
They hunt and forage. They has tentacles and eyes cuz they gotsta look around fo they food. (ie. they are NOT filter feeders).
Term
[image] In what clade does this belong? and how does it feed? what are some closely related animals?
Definition
It's a plume worm. Polycheata Sedentaria (sedentary polychaetes). Filter feed with tentacles. Related to x-mas tree worm and feather duster this is a X-mas Tree worm: [image]
Term
in what clade would you find a tube worm?
Definition
polychaete sedentaria; sedentary polychaete. sister of the errant polychaete (the sea mouse).[image]
Term
Tube worms are sedentary Polychaetes: what do they make their tubes from?
Definition
sand, leathery proteins or CaCO3. some incorporate their tube into coral.
Term
Synapomorphies of Bryozoa
Definition

Resemble colonial hydrozoan cnidarians, but have lophophore.

Have a CALCAREOUS or PROTEINACEOUS exoskeleton with closable OPERCULUM.

Reproduce via sexual zooids.[image]

Term
Synapomorphies of Brachiopoda
Definition

Look a lot like bivalves, but w/o the same symmetry. They attach to substrate w/ pedicel.

Shell is calcium phosphate.[image]

Term
What is the function of metanephridia?
Definition
Collect metabolic waste from body cavity (coelom) and send it out the nephridiopore. [image]
Term
Do annelids have an open or closed circulatory system?
Definition
Closed
