What are the nine phylum of invertebrate?
Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca, Nematoda, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, Chordata
Who are the Porifera? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? 2 layers or 3?
Sponges. No organs, no symmetry, no movement, no digestive cavity, no layers
Who are the Cnidaria? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? 2 layers or 3? Other defining characteristics?
Hydras, jellyfish, corals,etc. Radial symmetry. No organs. Incomplete digestive cavity (mouth no anus). 2 layers. Have nematocysts (to sting). Some can move
Who are the Platyhelminthes? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? 2 layers or 3? Other defining characteristics?
Free living planarians. Tapeworms,flukes. First with organs-Simple organs. Bilateral symmetry. Incomplete digestive cavity. First with 3 layers (ecto, endo, meso)
Who are the Annelida? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? 2 layers or 3? Other defining characteristics?
Earthworms, leeches, polychaetes. Organ systems. Bilateral with segmentation. First with complete digestive cavity. 3 layers. Have a body cavity called a coelom-absorbs shock around organs, allows organs to grow independently of body wall
Who are the Mollusca? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? Coelum? Other defining characteristics?
Bivalves(clams,oysters,mussels), gastropods(snails/slugs), cephalopods(squids,octopus). Yes, advances in respiratory organs to gills and in circulatory system. Bilateral not segmented. Yes complete.Yes, small. Radula=rasping organ used to scrape food. Mantle=fold of tissue that drapes over body to form a shell in some (snails).
Who are the Nematoda? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? Coelum? Other defining characteristics?
Roundworms-hookworms, heartworms, etc. Bilateral with no segmentation. Yes complete. Pseudocoelom (not entirely lined by mesoderm). Most members contain a flexible external cuticle that sheds as it grows
Who are the Arthropoda? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? Coelum? Other defining characteristics?
Crustaceans, arachnids, insects(only winged invertebrates), centipedes,etc. Bilateral symmetry with specialized segmentation head, abdomen, thorax. Yes complete. Reduced coelum. Jointed appendages,exoskeleton
Who are the Echinodermata? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? Coelum? Other defining characteristics?
Sea "critters"- sea corals, sea cucumbers, starfish, sand dollar. adults radial, larvae bilateral. yes.yes. Water vascular system, spines,endoskeleton
Who are the Chordata? Organs? Symmetry type? Digestive cavity? Coelum? Other defining characteristics?
Vertebrates, lancelets, tunicates. Yes, highly developed. Bilateral with segmentation. complete. yes. Dorsal hollow nerve tube,notochord-flexible supportive rod b-t digestive tube and nervePharyngeal slits – gill-like structures, Muscular tail (posterior to the anus)
What are the different types of tissues?
Epithelial tissues, Connective tissues, Muscle tissues, nervous tissue
What type of tissue is simple squamous and what is its structure and function? Where can it be found
Epithelial. Single layer of flattened cells. diffusion and filtration. found lining blood vessels and in air sacs of lungs
What type of tissue is simple cuboidal and what is its structure and function? Where can it be found
Epithelial. Single layer of cube shaped cells. Secretion and absorption. Ducts, kidney tubules, testes, ovaries
What type of tissue is simple columnar and what is its structure and function? Where can it be found
Epithelial. One layer of tall cells. Secretion and movement of materials. Digestive tract, lining airways
What type of tissue is stratified squamous and what is its structure and function? Where can it be found
Epithelial. Multiple layers of flattened cells. Protection, covers areas of high abrasion. Skin, esophagus
What are connective tissues and what are the 6 types?
Cells that secrete specific protein fibers and ground substance. Loose connective, fibrous (or dense), adipose, cartilage, bone, blood
What is the function of loose connective tissue and where is it found?
Elastic binding and packaging. Found under skin and under most epithelial tissue.
What is the function of adipose tissue and where is it found?
Padding, insulation, energy storage. Found AROUND organs, under skin.
What is the function of Fibrous tissue and where is it found?
Support strength elasticity. Ligaments (bone to bone), Tendon (bone to muscle), in skin, under many organs
What is the function of cartilage and where is it found?
Flexible support, resists compression, low friction around joints. Nose, ears, end of long bones, airways
What is the function of bones?
sturdy support, movement, protection of organs and brain
considered a connective tissue because its cellular components form within bone, which is a connective tissue
Blood
What is muscle tissue?
bundles of long contractile cells with many mitochondria
What are the 3 types of muscle tissues?
Skeletal, cardiac, smooth
What is the structure and function of cardiac tissue? Where is it found?
bundles of long striated cells that are branched with numerous gap junctions (important for communication). Purpose is to contract heart in unison. Found only in heart
What is the structure, function and location of skeletal muscle tissue?
Bundles of long striated cells used for voluntary movements. Attached to bones (by tendons)
What is the structure, function and location of smooth muscle tissue?
Not striated, spindle shaped cells used for involuntary muscles. Digestive tract, uterus, blood vessels arteries...
What is the structure, function and location of nervous tissue?
Cells with long extensions, close to each other. Send and receive electrical signals along plasma membrane. Located throughout the body and affect the muscles
What is an organ?
cooperative of several tissues working together to perform specific functions
What is a system?
Cooperative of several organs to perform specific functions.
What are the two sides of epithelial tissue?
free surface-inside a cavity or outside surface of skin; Basement membrane surface-side attached to a dense mat of extracellular consisting of fibrous proteins and polysaccharides (side opposite free surface)
Exocrine
secretions released onto the free surface. EX sweat, mucus, semen, milk, etc
Endocrine
no ducts, secrete from free surface directly into body fluid/blood. EX sex hormones, insulin, etc
What is epithelial tissue?
Sheets that cover external surfaces or line the inside of organs/cavities
Interstitial fluids
fluids that bathe all the cells of the body
homeostasis
steady state-the activities of cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems that keep an organism’s internal environment in a range that cells can tolerate
negative feedback
control mechanism that keeps small changes from becoming too large
positive feedback
amplifies a reaction
