FEATURES THAT ANIMALS ALL ANIMALS HAVE
1) heterotrophy 2) mobility
3) multicellularity 4)diploidy
5) sexual reproduction 6) no cell wall
7) blastula formation 8) cells organized into tissue
RADIAL SYMMETRY VS. BILATERAL SYMMETRY
Radial - animals have body parts arranged around a central axis

bilateral - a body design in which there are distinct right and left halves
IMPORTANCE OF A BODY CAVITY
it provides space between the body wall and a digestive tract (gut)
HOW DO SCIENTISTS DETERMINE EVOLUTIONARY RELATIONSHIPS AMONG ANIMALS
by useing a phylogenetic tree
advantage of diploidy
- it allows animals to exchange genes between the 2 copies of a set of chromosomes, creating new combination of genes
advantage of no cell wall
Not having a cell wall has allowed animals mobility that other multicellular organisms do not have

- There are cells moving inside one's body all the time - help do certain functions
blastula
- a hollow ball of cells
-produced when a zygote's cells divide
- blastula produce the primary tissue in our bodies -->which give rise to all organs and tissue in an adult body
Ectoderm
ecto = outside

Gives rise to -
- outer layer of skin; nervous system; sense organs,such as eyes
Endoderm
Endo = inside

gives rise to -
- lining of digestive tract; respiratory system; urinary bladder; digestive organs; many glands
Mesoderm
Meso= middle

gives rise to -
- Most of the skeloton; muscles; circulatory system; reproductive organs; excretory organs
what do tissues do
are groupes of cells that work together to preform a specific function
Body Plan
term used to describe an animal's:
-shape
- symmetry,
-internal organization.

-basic parts: coelom (cavity), fluid space and gut
asymmetrical
- sponges are asymmetrical
- irregular in shape
- not symetrical
Shape depends on where they are growing
Radial Symmetry
animals have body parts arranged around a central axis.

- currently radially symmetrical animals are aquatic
Bilateral symmetry
- all other animals have bilateral symmetry
- a body design in which there are distinct right and left halves
- a plane passes through the animals midline and divides the animal into mirror image halves
- major evolutionary change b/c it enabled diff parts of the body to become specialized in diff things
Cephalization
an anterior concentration of sensory structures and nerves

(all nerves and brains are in the front of the head allowing the rest of the body to move)
3 kinds of internal body plans in Billaterally symmetrical animals
1)Acoelomates,

2)Pseudocolomates,

3)Coelomates.

*** May have basic parts: coelom (cavity), space filled with fluid, and gut***
Coelom
a body cavity

- a "true coelom" is when the cavity is located entirely within the mesoderm (in coelomates)
Acoelomates
animals with no body cavity
- the space between the body wall and gut is completely filled with tissues
Pseudocoelomates
have a body cavity located between the mesoderm and endoderm.

body cavity called = Pseudocoelom (false coelom)
Coelomates
- have a true coelom - provides internal space where mesoderm and endoderm can be in contact with each other during embryonic development
- body cavity located entirely within the mesoderm
- ensures internal organs are suspended and protected by fuid filled coelom
how many phyla are in the kingdom Animalia
35 phyla in kingdom animalia
Phylogenetic tree
this is a diagram to show how animals are related through evolution

- shows relationships b/n diff animals
what functions do the tissues and organs of more complex animals do.
Digestion
respiration
circulation
conduction of nerve impulses
support
excertion
Gastrovascular cavity
gastrovascular cavity
- a digestive cavity with only one opening
- found in simple animals have such as the hydra and flat worms
-doesn't alow for specialization within the gastro cavity b/c every cell is exposed to all stages of digestion
What digesttive system do more complex orginisms have
- "1 way digestive track"
- a digestive tract which has 2 openings a mouth and an anus
- allows for specialization in specific areas (ex; a section for storage of food and a section for breaking down food)
Respiration
the uptake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide
- most large animals have a specilized respitory structures
- simple animals use diffuision
Gills
- Aquatic animals respire with gills
- which are extremely thin projections of tissue that are rich in blood vessels providing a large surface for gas exchange
- land animals don't have gills since they need to be really moist
Circulation
is when oxygen and nutrients musy be transported to the body cells.
Open circulatory system
- heart pumps fluid containg oxy and nutri through series blood vessles into body cavity
- there the fluid whases across body tissues, supplying them with oxy and nutri
- the fluid collects in open spaces in animal and flow back to heart
- OPEN b/c fluid leaves circ vessels
closed circulatory system
- a heart pumps blood through system of blood vessles
- blood vesssles form network that premits blood flow from heart to bodys cells and back
- blood remeains in vessels and does not direct contact with bodys tissues. instead it diffuses
-CLOSED b/c fluid does not leave the circ vessels
Hydrostatic skeloton
Consist of water that is contained under pressure in a closed cavity, such as a gastrovascular cavity or a coelom

(ex - am earthworm)
Exosekeloton
is a rigid external skeleton that encases the body of an animal.

(ex: insects, clams)
endoskeleton
an endoskeleton is composed of a hard material such as a bone

(ex: humans)
excretion
is the removal of waste produced by cellular metabolism
asexual reproduction
- reproduction that does not involve the fusion of two gametes

(ex: sponge grows by fragmenting its body and each fragement grows into a new sponge)
Hermaphrodites
- species animals which have both testes and ovaries
- can functions both as a male and as a female (higher chance of survival)

- But eggs and sperms are produced at diff times so can't self-fertilize

- ex: slugs, earthworms, some fishes
external fertilization
- the egg is fertilized outside of the females body.
- it happens with most aquatic animals where eggs are fertilized in water
Internal fertilizaton
the union of the sperm and egg occur within the females body

- happens in most terrestrial animals

-male places his semen (the fluid that contains the sperm) into the women's body)
- fertilization still takes place in a moist environment (semen) so gametes doen't dry out
Compare a gaastrovascular cavity with a one - way digestive system
a gastrovascular system goes in and out through the same opening
the one way goes in one opening and out another.
differ open from closed circulatory systems
open there is pace between the small vessles
and in closed the blood vessles are connected
distinguish asexual from sexual reproduction
sexual reproduction hapends between a male and a female gametes, the asexual happens between one person.
heterotrophy
- can NOT make their own foods
Diploidy
- Each adult animal has 2 copies of each chromosone

- one from mom, one from dad

-Only the gametes are haploid
layers of blastula
1) ectoderm

2) endoderm

3) mesoderm

*** all make up primary tissue in our bodies***
***leads to the formation of all other tissues/organs in our bodies***
What organism has the simplest body plan of all animals?
sponges
SEGMENTATION

- Advantages
- animal parts are assembled from a series of repeating units "segments"

Adv: -allows segments in worms to move independently so worms can move in complex ways

Advanced organisms show segmentation inside the body (not always visible)
steps to evolution of animals
- body cavities
- segmentation
-jointed appendages
-backbones
How do scientists determine evolutionary relationships?
by exmining DNA sequences
2 diff types of nervous sys
1) simple (in hydra) - all nerve cells are linked together in a "nerve net" - but no coordination b/n nerve cells

2) cluster of neurons developed at the front of the body and became larger (head) - seen in flatworm

3) more complex like grasshopper -= have other parts (liek eyes) that link and are controlled by the head (brain)
