all invertebrates except - exhibit snme type of body symmetry
|
sponges
|
|
cnidarians and echinoderms exhiibit - - , body parts extend from hte center of the body
|
radial symmetry
|
|
worms, mollusks, and arthropods exhibit - -, or have mirror-image left and right sides
|
bilateral symmetry
|
|
the concentration of sense organs and nerve cells in the front of the body
|
cephilization
|
|
in most worms and artropods, nerve cells are arranged in strucutres called -
|
ganglia
|
|
in more complex invertebrates, such as certain mollusks, nerve cells form an organ called a
|
brain
|
|
most complex animal phyla have a true coelom that is lined completely with tissue derived from -
|
mesoderm
|
|
the simplest animals break down food primarily through - digestion, but more complex animals use - digestion
|
intracellular, extracellular
|
|
when food is digested inside cells
|
intracellular digestion
|
|
in - digestion, food is broken down outside the cells lin a digestive cavity or tract and then absorbed into the body
|
extracellular
|
|
respiratory organ have - surface area that are in contact with the air or water
|
large
|
|
for - to occur, the respiratory surfaces must be moist
|
diffusion
|
|
most complex animals move - through their bodies using one or more hearts and either an open or closed circulatory system
|
blood
|
|
in an - circulatory system, blood is only partially contained within a system of blood vessels
|
open circulatory system
|
|
open circulatory systems are characteristic of - and -
|
arthropods and mollusks
|
|
in - circulatory system, a heart or heartlike organ forces blood thorough vessels that extend throughout the body
|
closed circulatory system
|
|
Invertebrates show 3 trends in the evolution of the nervous system: - - -
|
centralization, cephilization, and specialization
|
|
simplest nervous systems , found in cnidarians
|
nerve nets
|
|
consists of individual nerve cells taht form a netlike arrangement
|
nerce nets
|
|
the concentration of nerve tissue and organs in one end of the body is called
|
cephilization
|
|
in flatworms and roundworms, the nerve cells are more concentrated, or
|
centralized
|
|
the more complex an anima's nervous system is, the more developed its - organs tend to be
|
sense
|
|
invertebrates have one of three main kinds of skeletal systems:
|
hydrostatic skeletons, exoskeletons, or endoskeletons
|
|
some invertebrates, such as annelids and certain cnidarians have - - (skeletal system)
|
hydrostatic skeletons
|
|
(skeleton) muscles surround a fluid-filled body cavity taht supports the muscles; when the muscles contract, they push against fluid in the body cavity, causing the body to change shape
|
hydrostatic skeletons
|
|
in arthropods, the - or external skeleton, is a hard body covering made of chitin
|
exoskeleton
|
|
the shells of some - can also be considered exoskeletons
|
mollusks
|
|
an - is a structural support located inside the body
|
endoskeletons
|
|
sea stars and other echinoderms have an endoskeleton made of - plates
|
calcified
|
|
most invertebrates reproduce - during at least part of their life cycle
|
sexually
|
|
depending on - conditions, many invertebrates may also reproduce asexually
|
environmental
|
|
allows animals to reproduce rapidly and take advantage of favorable conditions in teh environment
|
asexual reproduction
|
|
maintains genetic diversity in a population by creating individuals with new combinations of genes
|
sexual reproduction
|
|
eggs are fertilized outside of the female's body
|
external fertilization
|
|
eggs are fertilized inside the female's body
|
internal fertilization
|
