An animal that lacks an internal body cavity

Acoelmate

An opening in the surface of some early embryos ; when cells move around during gastrulation

Blastopore

One plane of symmetry ; humans

Bilateral symmetry

Mitotic cell division without cell growth and no change in cell size

Cleavage

A fluid-filled space separating the digestive tract from the outer body wall with the mesoderm

Coelum

Large number of neurons aggregated into clusters called ganglia ; vertebrates consists of the brain and spinal cord

Central Nervous System (CNS)

Protists that are close living relatives to animals

Choanoflagellates

An animal that has a true coelem ; completely lined with mesoderm

Coelmate

Pattern of embryonic development ; anus first

Deuterostome

Animals that have two types of tissues

Diploblasts

Germ layer that gives rise to skin and nervous system

Ectoderm

Germ layer that gives rise to the lining of the digestive tract

Endoderm

A rearrangement of the embryo ; folds into the blastocoel ; formation of layers (i.e. germ layers)

Gastrulation

Three basic types of tissue formed during gastrulation

Germ layers (Endoderm, Ectoderm, Mesoderm)

Germ layer that gives rise to the circulatory system, muscles, and internal structures such as bones and organs

Mesoderm

A nervous system in which neurons are diffuse instead of being clustered into large ganglia or tracts ; found in cnidarian ctenophores

Neural net



Pattern of embryonic development ; mouth first

Protostome

An animal that has a coelom that is only partially lined with mesoderm

Pseudocoelomate

At LEAST two planes of symmetry

Radial symmetry

Adults live permanently attached to a substrate ; do not move

Sessile

Animals that have three types of tissues

Triploblasts

Protostome animals that secrete external skeletons (exoskeletons)

Ecdysozoa

Protostome animals that have a trochophore larva before metamorphosis

Lophotrochozoa
