cleavage
|
The process of cytocinesis in animal cells sharacterized by pimching of the plasma membrane: the succesion of rapid cell divisions eithout groeth during the early embrionic development that converts the zygote into a ball of cells
|
|
Blastula
|
The hollow ball of cells making the end stage of cleavage during early embrionic development
|
|
Grastulation
|
the formation of the Gastula from a bastula
|
|
Gastrla
|
the three layered, cup shaped embrionic stage
|
|
Larva
|
A free living sexually immature form in some animal life cycles that may differ from the adult in morphology, nutrition and habitat
|
|
metaporphosis
|
The resurgence of development in an animal latca that transforms it in to a secially mature adult.
|
|
Ediacran Fauna
|
Earliest generally accepted animal fossils datingfrom about 575 MYA
|
|
Cambrian Explosion
|
A burst of evolutionary orgins when most of the majority of animals appeared in a realitive breif time in geologic history; recirded in fossil record 542-525 MYA
|
|
Grade
|
Group of animal species that share the same level of organization complexity
|
|
Body Plan
|
In animals, the set of morphological and developmental traits that define a grade (a level of organizational complexity)
|
|
radial Symmetry
|
Characterizing a body shape like a pie or barrel, with many equal parts radiating outwards like the spokes of a wheel; present in CNIDARANS and ECHINODERMS
|
|
Bilateral Symmetry
|
Characterizing a body form with a central longitudinal plane that divides the body into two equal but opposite halves
|
|
Dorsal
|
Referrers to the BACK of a bilaterally symmetrical animal
|
|
Ventral
|
Pertaining to the underside or bottom of a bilaterally symmetrical animal
|
|
Anterior
|
Referring to the head of a bilaterally symmetrical animal
|
|
Posterior
|
Pertaining bilaterally symmetrical animal to the rear, or tail end, of a
|
|
Cephalization
|
An evolutionary trend towards the concentration of sensory equipment on the anterior end of the body
|
|
germ layers
|
The three main layers that form the various tissues and organs on an animal body
|
|
Ectoderm
|
The outer most of the three germ layers in animal embryos; gives rise to the outer covering and , in some phyla the nervous system, inner ear and lens of the eye
|
|
Endoderm
|
The inner most of the three germ layers in animal embryos; lines the archenteron and gives rise to the liver, pancreas lungs and lining of the digestive tract
|
|
Archenteron
|
The endoderm lined cavity, form during he gastualation process, that develops into the digestive tract of an animal
|
|
Diploblastic
|
of having two germ layers
|
|
Mesoderm
|
The middle primary germ layer that develops into the notocord, the lining of the coelom, muscles, skeleton, gonads, kidneys and most of the circulatory system
|
|
Triploblastic
|
Processing tree germ layers; the ectodermis, mesodermis and endodermis. Most EUMETAZOANS are triploblasts
|
|
Body cavity
|
A fluid-containing space between the digestive tract and the body wall
|
|
Coelom
|
A body cavity completely lined with mesoderm
|
|
Coelomates
|
Animal that posses a true coelom
|
|
Pseudococlamates
|
An animal whose body cavity is not completely lined with mesoderm
|
|
acoclomates
|
A solid-bodied animal lacking a cavity between the gut and outer body wall
|
|
protostome development
|
A developmental mode distinguished by the development of the mouth from the blastopore; often also characterized by schizocoelous development of the body cavity and by spiral cleavage
|
|
Deuterosome Devlopment
|
A developmental mode distinguished by the development of the anus from the blastopore; often characterized by ENTEROCOELOUS development of the body cavity by radial cleavage
|
|
Spiral Cleavage
|
A type of embryonic development in protosomesin which the planes of division that transforms the zygote into a ball of cells occur obliquely to the polar axis, resulting in cells of each tier sitting in the groves btw cells of adjacent teirs.
|
|
Determinate Cleavage
|
a type of embryonic development in protosomes that rigidly casts development fate of each embryonic cell very early
|
|
Radial Cleavage
|
A type of embryonic development in deuterostomes in which the planes of cell division that transform the zygote into a ball of cells are either parallel or perpendicular to the polar axis, therby aligning tiers of cells one above the other
|
|
Indeterminate cleavage
|
A type of embryonic development in deuterostomes in which each cell produced by early cleavage division retains the capacity to develop into a complete embryo
|
|
Schizocoelous
|
pattern of formation of the body cavity common in protosome develop in which initially solid masses pf mesoderm split, forming the body cavity
