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)
PROTOSTOME
Spiral
Determinate
Mouth:

DEUTEROSTOME
Radial
Indeterminate
Anus
Outpocketsof mesoderm
Echinodermata & Chordata
Porifera)-
separate origin from protozoans
Cnidarians
radial symmetry, diploblastic, incomplete DT, acoelomate, two body forms (polyp-hydra, medusa-jellyfish), cnidocyte
Platyhelminthes
cephalization
a. Blastopore--mouth
b. Triploblastic
c. Spiral cleavage
d. No coelom, Incomplete DT
Nematoda roundworms
a. Blastopore--mouth
b. Triploblastic
c. Spiral cleavage
d. Complete DT
e. Pseudocoelom
Mollusks

Coelom and Segmentation
Annelids-- segmented worms
segmentation well developed
Arthropods
Segmentation, jointed appendages, Exoskeleton of chitin
Echinodermata--
radial symmetry (2nd), water vascular system, endoskeleton
Chordata--
bilateral, segmented, pharyngeal gill slits, dorsal hollow nerve cord, notochord
