2 surviving lophophorate phyla |
Brachiopoda, Ectoprocta |
|
What does the name of the phylum Ectoprocta suggest about it's anatomy? |
anus on ectoderm |
|
A species of Ectoprocta? |
Pectinatella magnifica |
|
Phylum ectoprocta also known as? |
Bryozoa |
|
Brachiopoda; where found |
mostly benthic marine |
|
Distinguishing features of brachiopods? |
Pedicle and shell; no true bivalves have pedicle |
|
How far back in time does the phylum Mollusca go? What are the classes? |
Cambrian period; Polyplacophora Scaphopoda Gastropoda Cephalopoda Bivalvia |
|
Polyplacophora |
Class in Mollusca Chitons; 8 plates |
|
Scaphopoda |
Class in Mollusca Tusk shells- just need to know by sight |
|
Gastropoda |
Class in Mollusca |
|
Torsion (Gastropoda) |
Twisting of GI system and rest of visceral mass, including anus, towards head of animal |
|
Prosobranch |
Full torsion; anus and mantle in anterior position |
|
Opistobranch |
Complete detorsion; anus has moved from anterior to posterior side of animal |
|
Purpose of holes in shells of prosobranch |
To prevent fowling in mouth; water current cleans out area |
|
Nudibranch |
"naked gills" Anterially positioned cerata |
|
cerata |
Typically contain cnidocytes from harvested Cnidarians; for defense |
|
All living body plans of gastropods evolved from which body plan? |
Prosobranch |
|
Which time period had the most phyla? |
Cambrian |
|
Which body plan did the pulmonates evolve from? |
Prosobranchs |
|
What body plan do pulmonate gastropods have? |
Partial torsion |
|
Terrestrial Pulmonates use _______ _______ as a lung. Air enters this through a hole called _________. |
Mantle cavity; pneumostome |
|
Freshwater pulmonates have secondarily evolved __________. |
Gills |
|
In the class bivalvia, what is the function of the mantle? |
Modification for siphons, respiration, and shell formation |
|
A few organisms in Cephalopoda Jay wanted us to know? |
Pacific giant octopus, giant squid (Architeuthis), colossal squid, nautilus, cuttlefish |
|
Important anatomical feature of Nautilus we need to know? |
Siphuncle |
|
What is the siphuncle's function in a nautilus? |
Intestinal tissue which secretes and absorbs gases into chambers which allow the nautilus to go up/down in water. |
|
Important thing to note about the cuttlefish |
Has a vestigal shell |
|
Lung worm phyla and life cycle |
Nematoda Eggs > intestine> pooped out > deer eat larvae > intestine > bloodstream > lung > reproductive adult > beginning When deer cough, larvae are swallowed and pooped to be picked up by other deer |
|
Ascaris life cycle; part 1 |
eggs deposited in feces > picked up by another host > hatch in small intestine > burrow through intestinal lining to bloodstream > enter right atrium > right ventrical > pulmonary arteries to lungs |
|
Ascaris life cycle; part 2 |
Larvae leave lungs via bronchi and trachea > coughed up and swallowed > mature in small intestine |
|
Trichinella mode of transmission |
Ingestion |
|
Trichinella life cycle |
Larvae liberated from cyst in stomach > migrate to small intestine where they mature as dioecious adults |
|
Female Trichinella release ______ larvae |
Oviviviperous |
|
Trichinella larvae get to the muscle how? |
Penetrate intestinal lining > migrate via bloodstream > reach striated muscle |
|
Zooparasites Jay wants us to know with intermediate hosts |
Wuchereria bancrofti (elephantiasis) Loa loa (africal eyeworm) Dracunculus medinensis (guinea worm) |
|
What organism is a vector for Wuchereria bancrofti. How has wuchereria larvae adapted with its environment to optimize transmission? |
Mosquito; microfilarial larvae can fit in capillaries which enables them to move around body to the skin at appropriate time of day for mosquitos- called larval migrans |
|
What tissue can get clogged up from Wuchereria larvae? |
Lymph |
|
Vector for Loa loa? |
Deer fly |
|
Guinea worm vector? |
Copepods |
|
Nematomorpha intermediate host? |
Orthopterans |
|
Largest animal phylum? |
Arthropoda; over 1 million species |
|
Largest arthropod taxon? |

|
Arthropoda distinguishing features? |
Jointed appendages and exoskeletons |
|
Exoskeleton of arthropods is composed of what? |
Chitin with or without calcium carbonate |
|
Subphyla in arthropoda? |

|
Trilobita |
3 lobed body Extinct at end of Permian extinction |
|

|
Merostomata |
Horseshoe crabs; 5 species Marine invertebrates, feed nocturnally Found in Gulf of Mexico and S. Atlantic |
|
