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 |
