|
|
which phylum includes ribbonworms?
|
nemertea
|
|
which phylum includes roundworms?
|
nematoda
|
|
platyhelminthes are _________ symmetrical
|
bilaterally
|
|
true or false: platyhelminthes have eye spots
|
true
|
|
how many germ layers do platyhelminthes have?
|
three, triploblastic
|
|
platyhelminthes: acoelomate, coelomate, pseudocoelomate?
|
acoelomate
|
|
true or false: platyhelminthes have an anus
|
false, incomplete gut (mouth, no anus)
|
|
platyhelminthes: slow or fast food processing
|
slow due to incomplete gut, can only do one thing at a time
|
|
why are platyhelminthes small?
|
they have no respiratory or circulatory organs
|
|
protonephridia
|
excretory organ (like a kidney) that regulates water balance
platyhelminthes are the first ones to have anything like this |
|
cnidarians have nerve nets, what do platyhelminthes have instead?
|
a little itty-bitty brain and nerve cords
|
|
the cilia and mesoderm in platyhelminthes allow for
|
greater freedom of movement (mesoderm --> muscles)
|
|
cephalization
|
evolution of definite head and brain area
|
|
cephalization requires ______ symmetry
|
bilateral
|
|
parendyma
|
type of mesoderm, more loosely packed cells
|
|
platyhelminthes: flattened _____________ dorsoventrally or laterally
|
dorsoventrally
|
|
why are flatworms flat?
|
increase SA/V ratio, which helps in diffusive transport of gases and wastes
|
|
what are the three classes of platyhelminthes?
|
class turbellaria: only free-living (non-parasite) group
class cestoidea: parasitic tapeworms class trematoda: parasitic flukes |
|
how does class turbellaria feed?
|
carnivores and scavengers
they have a pharnyx coming out of their body with a mouth at the end to vacuum up food to eat |
|
how does class turbellaria reproduce?
|
regeneration
cross-fertilizing hermaphrodites (maintain male & female parts until sex) |
|
hypodermic impregnation
|
parmales actively place spermatophores on the body surface of females, in turbellaria's case, both are hermaphrodites
|
|
parasitic tapeworms: phylum and class?
|
phylum platyhelminthes
class cestoda |
|
tegument
|
natural covering of a body
|
|
true or false: class cestoda tapeworms have a ciliated tegument
|
false, it is nonciliated
|
|
proglottid
|
One of the segments of a tapeworm, containing both male and female reproductive organs
|
|
strobilation
|
Asexual reproduction by division into body segments
Transverse fission |
|
how does class trematoda's complex lifestyle increase regeneration?
|
primary host can eat the infected 2nd host
|
|
what are the three lophophorate phyla?
|
phylum ectoprocta (=bryozoa)
phylum brachiopoda phylum phoronida |
|
how many species does phylum ectoprocta contain?
|
4500 species
|
|
how many species does phylum brachiopoda have?
|
about 335 species
|
|
how many species does phylum phoronida have?
|
20 species
|

|
400 mya in the Paleozoic and Mesozoic
|

|
phoronida
|
|
True or false: phylum brachiopoda has 2 shells dorsoventrally flattened
|
true
|
