Animals

Heterotrophic, multicellular, lacking cell walls. Proteins (collagen) assist in cell to cell communication. Most animal cells are organized into tissues (nerves and muscles) which can be used for mobility [not sponges, basal animal]

Fertilization occurs by

2 haploid gamètes that were produced by meiosis

Developmental stages for animals

Cleavage-mitotic cell divisions without cell growth



Blasula: hollow (hole is the blastocoel) ball of cells



Gastrulation: embryo folds inward and fills blastocoel, producing embryonic tissue.



Gastrula: developmental stage. A blastopore emerges from the fold, the hole it in the blastopore is the archenteron, the blastocoel is smaller. Tissues are ectoderm, endoderm and (occasionally) mesoderm.

Metamorphosis

Developmental, transformation turning larval into a juvenile that resembles and adult, but not yet sexually mature.

Animals have body plans

Morphological and developmental traits integrated into the functional whole.

Bilateral symmetry

Dorsal, ventral, anterior, posterior with often cephalization.

Radial

Function the same from any side

Ectoderm

Tissue that becomes Skin, nervous system

Endoderm

Becomes digestive tract

Mesoderm

ALL BILATERIANS ARE TRIPLOBLASTIC the mesoderm becomes the circulatory system, muscle, bones, organs

Coelom

From the mesoderm, is the body cavity that can suspend internal organs between the digestive tract and the outer body wall.

Coelomates

Animals with a coelom

Acoelomates

No coelom, but triploblastic

Pseudocoelomates

Body cavity made of mesoderm and ectoderm

Protostome development

Only with TRIPLOBLASTS. Annelids and molluscs. Cells are spiral and determinate, coelom broke off from mesoderm, blastopore becomes mouth.

Deuterostome development

ONLY TRIPLOBLASTS. Echinoderms and chordates. Indeterminate cells at cleavage, coelom formed from archenteron, blastopore becomes anus

Are protostome development and deuterostome development convergent, homologous, or cannot be determined

Convergent. They are not synapomorphies and are only to distinguish taxa

Evolution of animals

~710 MYO first fossil, likely aquatic.

Closest living relative to animals?

Choanoflagellates:


-shared morphology with sponges, that have similar choanocytes and cadherin like proteins


-dna evidence suggest sponges and choanoflagellates are sister taxa
