Scientific Method
|
A way of knowing about some natural phenomena
A way of finding out through hypothesis testing IMRaD |
|
Hypothesis testing
|
When scientists ask questions about how natural processes work
Based on observations Tested and re-tested Supported or refuted |
|
Ethology–
|
the study of animal behavior
|
|
Innate behaviors
|
pre-programmed into the genetic code of animals.
|
|
Learning
|
behaviors that are greatly modifiable by experience
|
|
Imprinting
|
learning what iimageto follow at a critical age
|
|
Habituation
|
the ability to ignore stimuli that at first appear to be a threat.
|
|
Territoriality
|
a complex behavior that organizes some animal societies
|
|
Characteristics Used in Animal Phylogeny
|
-Symmetry:
-Level of Organization -Cleavage -Body Segmentation -Body Cavity -Two lines of Coelomates |
|
Symmetry:
|
1. Asymmetrical: SPONGES
2. Radial Symmetry: Jellies, starfish 3. Bilateral Symmetry: (most derived symmetry). Faltworms-Chordates |
|
Level of Organization
|
1. Cellular: SPONGES
2. Tissue Level: a. Diploblastic: Cnidarians b. Triploblastic: Flatworms-Chordates |
|
Cleavage: Mitosis of the Zygote
|
1. Pattern:
Radial:(Deuterostome) . Spiral: (Protostome) |
|
Fate of cells
|
. Determinate: (Protostome)
. Indeterminate: (Deuterostome) |
|
Body Segmentation:
|
Body divided into repeated series of structures
More effective locomotion |
|
Body Cavity
|
1. Acoelomate: (sponges, jellyfish, flatworms)
2. Pseudocoelomate: (nematodes) 3. Coelomate(eucoelom): (mollusks-chordates). |
|
Advantages of a body cavity
|
a. Increased ease of locomotion, hydrostatic skeleton (internal support via water pressure).
b. Circulation increased via fluid in cavity c. Allows space for heart & other internal organs. e. Digestive Tract can coil |
|
Two lines of Coelomates
|
a. Schizocoel---Split Mesoderm. (Protostomes)
b. Enterocoel---Outpocketsof Mesoderm. (Deuterostomes) |
