Fancy Name for body cavity?
Coelom (Just in case you didn't get that from Part 1)
Peritoneum
A covering membrane that lines the body cavity and covers the internal organs
Less complex invertebrates
May lack a coelom or may have an intermediate structure called a pseudocoelom
Pseudocoelom
A fluid-filled cavity that lacks the mesodermal lining of a true coelom
Acoelomates, such as flatworms
Lack a body cavity.
Pseudocoelomates, such as roundworms,
Do not have a continuous peritoneal lining.
Coelomates, such as the higher invertebrates and vertebrates,
Have a true coelom lined with a continuous peritoneum.
The development of a coelom was probably associated, at least in part...
With an increase in animal size. As a solid structure increases in volume, the exchange of gases, food materials, and waste is less easily accomplished, and the folding of different organs to increase the surface area is somewhat restricted.
Having a body cavity allows space for internal organs such as lungs, heart, stomach, and intestine
To expand and contract and to slide by each other as the animal moves.
Examples of Animals that display radial symmetry
Hydra, jellyfish, and starfish
Bilateral symmetry
(bi meaning two) if one half of a shape is the
mirror image of the other half.
Radial symmetry
If the shape of one part is repeated a number
of times about a central axis
Cephalization
(from the Latin cephalicus , meaning head) The concentration of nerve tissues and receptors at the anterior end of an animal's body
Only animals that display bilateral symmetry
Have a true head region
The invertebrates comprise
95% of all the described animal species on Earth
Sessile
Not capable of independent movement. Sessile animals remain fixed in one place throughout their adult lives.
Motile
Capable of movement. Motile animals are able to move from place to place by expending cellular energy
