|
Identify and list the characteristics of a mouse that make it a member of the animal kingdom.
|
It is a multicellular heterotroph, moves to get food, and has cells without cell walls.
|
|
|
Explain why movement is an important characteristic of animals.
|
Animals must search for food and mates.
|
|
|
Compare and contrast a protostome and a deuterostome.
|
Protostomes: the mouth develops from the opening in the gastrula; deuterostomes: the mouth develops elsewhere on the gastrula
|
|
|
Identify cell differentiation in the development of an animal.
|
Ectoderm: skin and the nervous system; Endoderm- digestive organs and the digestive tract’s lining; Mesoderm: muscles, the circulatory, and excretory systems, and in some animals, the respiratory system
|
|
|
Describe gastrulation.
|
Gastrulation occurs when cells of the blastula move inward and form an indentation on the surface of the blastula. It is now called a gastrula. (like pottery)
|
|
|
Name a land animal that is sessile. Why would this adaptation be a disadvantage to an animal in a land biome?
|
Scale insects mature as sessile animals after they pierce plant tissues with their mouths to feed on plant liquids. A sessile land animal could not locate a mate or find more food if its current food source disappeared.
|
|
|
Make a concept map of animal development using the following stages, beginning with the earliest stage: gastrula, larva, adult, fertilized egg, blastula
|
fertilized egg--->blastula----> gastrula---> larva---> adult
|
|
|
organism that is permanently attached to a surface.
|
sessile
|
|
|
hollow ball of cells in a layer surrounding a fluid-filled space; an animal embryo after cleavage but before the formation of the gastrula.
|
blastula
|
|
|
animal embryo development stage where cells on one side of the blastula move inward forming a cavity of two or three layers of cells with an opening at one end.
|
gastrula
|
|
|
layer of cells on the outer surface of the gastrula; eventually develops into the skin and nervous tissue of an animal.
|
ectoderm
|
|
|
layer of cells on the inner surface of the gastrula; will eventually develop into the lining of the animal's digestive tract and organs associated with digestion.
|
endoderm
|
|
|
middle cell layer in the gastrula, between the ectoderm and the endoderm; develops into the muscles, circulatory system, excretory system, and in some animals, the respiratory system.
|
mesoderm
|
|
|
animal with a mouth that develops from the opening in the gastrula.
|
protostome
|
|
|
animal whose mouth develops from cells other than those at the opening of the gastrula.
|
deuterostome
|
