How do animals differ from plants and fungi
animals cannot construct all of their own food and most animals use enzymes to digest food only after they have ingested it
What do animals lack that plants and fungi contain
cell wals
What are animal bodies held together by
structural proteins mostly collagen
What are the three types of intercellular tissue that animals contain
tight junctions desmosomes and gap junctions
What are two specalized cell types only found in aminals
muscle cell and nerve cells
The haploid stage in dominant in animals
false
What is cleavage
A succession of mitotic cell divisions without cell growth between cell devisions
What does the cleavage lead to
the formation of a multicellular blastula
Describe the process the blastula goes through in order to move to the next stage
gastrulation the layers of embryonic tissues that will develop into adult body parts are produced after this process a gastrula is formed
What is a larva
a sexually immature form of an animal that is morphologically distinct from the adult stage
How does the larva turn into an adult
Metamorphois
In animals what gene during the development controls the expression of other genes
Hox genes
What is the common ancestor of all animals
a colonial flagellated protist
What are the first fossils called
Ediacaran fauna
When did the animal population emerge
in the early Cambrian period of the Paleozoic era
What are the ideas behind the Cambrian Explosion
1) New methods in predation which generated new species through natural selection
2)Higher oxygen levels supported bigger creatures
3)The development of the HOX gene
When where the first arthropods found
Cambrian period
What two lineages of early vertebrates still survive today
1) Amphibians( frogs and salamanders)
2) Amniotes(reptiles and mamals)
What happened in the Mesozoic Era
Animals began to spread in their nitches. coral reefs were found , wings, dinosaurs, first tiny nocternal mamals
What happened in the early Cenozoic Era
mass extinctions due to land freezing over
What happened in the late Cenozoic Era
1)Mamals took over the niches left by extinct animals
2) The climate cooled
What is a grade
a group of animal species that share the same level of organizational complexity
Is the grade the same as the clade
no
What are the germ layers
Ectoderm, Endoderm, Mesoderm
What does Ectodem do
makes the outer covering as well as the nervous system
What does the Endoderm do
It is the innermost germ layer makes the digestive tube or archenteron and makes everything else responsible for digestion
If you have two germ layers you are
diploblastic
What are some common diploblasts
cnidarians and comb jellies
What is the third germ layer and what does it do
mesoderm which is in the middle and this makes muscles and other organs between the digestive tract and the outer covering of the animal
When you are triploblastic what do you have
mesoderm
What is a fluid filled space separating the digestive tract from the outer body wall
a body cavity or the coelom
What is the purpose of coelom
it is mesentery and it suspends the internal organs
If you posess true coelom what are you
a coelomate
If you are a triploblast and do not have a body cavity covered in mesoderm what are you
pseudocoelomate
If you are a triploblas and lack coelom altogether what are you
acoelomate
What are the two developnamtal modes
protostome or deuterostome
What is characteristic in protostome development
a spiral cleavage
What is determinante cleavage
cleavage that determines the developmental fate of each embryonic cell
What kind of cleavage is found in deuterostomes
radial
What is indeterminate cleavage
each cell produced by cleavage divisions retains the capacity to develop into a complete embryo
Are human determinate or indeterminate and how do we know this
indeterminate
the development of twins and stem cells
WHat is schizoxoelous development
when solid masses of mesoderm split and form the coelomic cavity as the archenteron forms
What is it called when the mesoderm buds from the wall of the archenteron and that caity becomes the coelom

what type of development is this characteristic of
enterocoelous and deuterstome
What is the blastopore
It is the indentation that leads to the formation of the archenteron (the first opening)
in the protostome which is first mouth or anus
mouth
In the deuterstome which is first mouth or anus
anus
How many phyla are there
