Protosomes belong to which two Clades?

Ecdysozoa and Spiralia

Sprilia

-Embryos develop in water (spiral cleavage)


-live in water


-move with cilia or muscle contractions


-Two Clades: Platyzoans and Lophotrochozons


Platyzoans

Most prominent group is flat worms


-simple bodies, no circulitory or respiratory systems but complex reproductive system


-includes marine and freshwater planarians (parasitic fluke worms and tapeworms

Lophoptrochozoa

Two defining characteristics:




Trochophore-free living larva




Lophophore- a horseshoe shaped crown of tentacles surrounds the mouth used for filter feeding.



Ecdysozoa

contains animals that molt


exoskeleton


Two large groups


-Arthropods


- Nematodes

Flatworms

-flatworms are ciliated


-bodies are soft but solid aside from an incomplete digestive cavity


-many are parasitic


-others free-living-marine, freshwater, moist terrestrial


-only one digestive cavity


-no circulatory system- gas diffusion for transport


-have an excretory and osmoregulatory system


-metabolic wastes are excreted into gut and eliminated through the mouth


-Simple nervous system- eye spot can distinguish light from dark


-Reproduction-most hermaphroditic but also have capacity for asexual regeneration



2 Major groups of Flatworms

Free-living Tubellaria- common planaria in bio labs




Parastic: Trematoda-flukes, attach inside host with suckers or hooks, may have 2 or more hosts in life, Schistosoma




Cestoda(Ceromeromorpha)- tapeworms, adults hold onto inner wall of host intestine using scolex



Lophotrochozoans-Phylum Mollusca

-Second in diversity only to arthropods


-includes snails. slugs, clams, octopi, and others


- some have shells, some not


-evolved in oceans and most still there


-human food


-Economically significant (pearls, mother of pearl)


-Zebra muscles are pests

Mollusk Body Plan

Mantle- thick epidermal sheet, secrete shell if they have one




Foot- primary means of locomotion, in cephalopods the foot is divided into arms or tentacles

Mollusk Internal Organs

-Coelom is very reduced


-Digestive, excretory, and reproductive concentrated in a visceral mass


-Gills in aquatic mollusks



Mollusk Shell

Protects against predators and adverse environments

Secreted by outer surface of mantle

Radula

-characteristic of most mollusks


_rasping, tongue-like structure used in feeding


-used to scrape algae


-in predatory gastropods, modified to drill through clam shell


-In Conus snails modified into harpoon with venom glands



Mollusks waste removal

Nephridia



Mollusk Circulatory System

Open circulatory system : Hemolymph sloshes around hemocoel


-3 chambered heart


-cephalopods have closed circulatory system

Mollusk Reproduction

- most are gonochoric (two distinct sexes)




-most engage in external fertilization




-trochophore- free swimming larval stage-




-veliger -free swimming second larval stage only present in bivalves and most marine snails




-both forms drift widely in the ocean



Classes of Mollusks

-Polyplacophora (chitons)




-Gastropoda (limpets, snails and slugs)




-Bivalvia- clams, oysters, scallops




-cephalopodia- squids, octopi, cuttlefish, and chambered nautilus

Class Polyplacophora (chitons)

-marine mollusks that have oval bodies




-8 overlapping dorsal calcareous plates




-most chitons are grazing herbivores

Class Gastropodia

-Limpets, snails, slugs


-Primarily marine group, some freshwater and only terrestrial mollusks


-most have single shell- some have lost it


-heads typically have a pair of tentacles with eyes





Nudibranchs

-marine snail without a shell


-exposed gills


-many secret distastefull chemicals


-some extract nematocysts from cnidarian prey and transfer them to their body surface

Class Bivalvia

-Includes clams, scallops, muscles, oysters, and others


-most marine some freshwater


-no radula or distinct head


-have 2 shells (valves) hinged together (abductor muscles counter hinge ligament)


-water enters through inhalant siphon and exits through exhalant sipon

Class Cephalopoda

-more than 600 strictly marine species


-active marine predators


-only mollusk with closed circulatory system


-foot has evolved into a series of arms with suctions cips and have beaklike jaws with toxic saliva


-Largest relative brain sizes among invertebrates


-highly developed nervous system


-living cephalopods lack external shell (except chambered nautilus and squid and cuttlefish have internal shells)


-jet propulsion using siphon


-ink can be ejected from siphon


-chromatophores allow for changing color in skin for camoflouge or communication


-

Lophotrochozoans-Nmertea (ribbonworms)

-about 900 species of cylindrical to flattened very long worms


-most are marine: a few species live in fresh water and humid terrestrial habitats


-body plan resembles a flat worm


- has complete gut


-Rhynochocoel- fluid filled coloemic cavity



Lophotrochozoans




Phylum Annelida

-segmented worms


-body built of repeated units


-allows for specialization


- may not be monophyletic


-roughly 12000 species occurring in many environments


2 classes- Polychaeta and Clitella



Phylum Annelida Body plan

- head has well-developed cerebral aglion


-sensory organs in ringlike segments


-many species have eyes


-segments divided internally by septa ( each segment has excretory organs, a ganglion and locomotry structure


-closed circulatory system


-ventral nerve cord


-each part of digestive tract specialized for different function







Annelida Locomotion

-coelmic cluid creates a hydrostatic skeleton


- alternating muscle contractions allows complex movements


- chateae- bristles of chitin found in most groups



Annelida Circulatory system

closed circulatory system- gas exchange by diffusion across body surfaces

Annelida Excretory system

nephrida similar to mollusks

Class Polychaeta (Polychaetes)
