How are names written in Latin?
-ALWAYS underlined or italicized
-Genus = 1st word and is capitalized noun
-Species = all letters lowercase, adjective
Typological Species concept
(Aristotle)

physical attributes
OR
where a species was found first
Biological species concept
(Dobzhansky and Mayr)

based on reproduction
Phylogenetic species concept
by DNA
Taxononomy
study of principles of classification, systematic ordering and naming of organisms
Genus name is shared among ________________ related species
closely
specific epithet DOES NOT indicate relatedness. True or False?
TRUE
Authority is...
person who gave that name is listed after the scientific name
Linneaus devised a system with _______ taxonomic levels.

How many now?
7

8
Domain
most inclusive taxon. there are 3
1. Eukarya
2. Bacteria
3. Archea
systematics
field of bio that classifies organisms based on EVOLUTIONARY relationships
monophyletic
one common ancestor
paraphyletic
has one common ancestor AS WELL as a certain species that isn't in that group anymore
phylogenetic systematics
uses derived traits to produce phylogenies
homology vs analogy
homology is same trait from same ancestor.

analogy is same trait without relatedness.
phylogenetic trees should be viewed as:
hypotheses
how may levels of organization?
1-protoplasmic
2- cellular grade
3- cell-tissue grade
4- tissue-organ grade
5-organ-system grade
protoplasmic grade
all fx's are done in ONE cell

unicellular
cellular grade
multicellular...NO TISSUES

ex) porifera
cell-tissue grade
body is made up of tissues

ex) cnidaria (jellyfish, hydra..)
tissue-organ grade
have organs with MORE THAN ONE type of tissue working towards common fx

ex) platyhelmintes (flatworms)
organ-system grade
organs arranged so that MULTIPLE organs work together to perform a fx

ex) digestive tract
extracellular structured components
materials produced by cells and are secreted into interstitial space (fluid filled area btwn cells)
spherical symmetry
ANY plane passing through produces 2 identical halves
radial symmetry
2 or more planes passing through the main axis create equal halves
bilateral symmetry
only ONE plane along the main axis creates 2 identical halves

ex) lady bug
cephalization
when specialization becomes localized in the head
protostome
blastopore becomes the MOUTH
deuterostome
blastopore becomes the ANUS
ecdysozoan vs lophotrochozoa
ecdysozoan does MOLTING
acoelomate body plan
NO body cavity
pseudocoelomate body plan
body cavity btwn endoderm and mesoderm
eucoelmoate body pan
body cavity COMPLETELY SURROUNDED by mesoderm
segmentation
body composed of repeated units called metamenes or somites
incomplete vs complete digestive tract
incomplete: ONE opening

complete: TWO openings
Cope's Law
general tendency for body size to increase over time
egestion vs excretion:
excretion: ALL nitrogenous wastes

egestion: JUST FECES
hydrostatic skeleton
fluid filled chamber
exoskeleton
support structures COVER soft tissue
endoskeleton
support structures INSIDE soft issue
kingdom animalia
multicellular
heterotrophic
eukaryotic-well defined nucleus, single strand DNA
colonial flagellate hypothesis
chanoflagellates are closest related to animals

*chanoflagellates are out group
phylum porifera
-sponge
-sessile
-5000 marine species, 150 freshwater
-INTRAcellular digestion
choanocytes
fliter food
pinacocytes
cover outside
porocytes
tubes for h2o to enter through
sclerocytes
form spicules
archaeocytes
distribute nutrients
mesohyl
gelatenous material
ostium
opening on the side for h2o
spongocoel
large chamber in the middle of the sponge
osculum
opening for outflow of h2o
3 basic body plans for porifera:
1- asconoid
2- syconoid
3- leuconoid
asconoid body plan
choanocytes line SPONGOCOEL
syconcoid body plan
choanocytes line RADIAL CANALS
leuconoid body plan
choanocytes are SCATTERED AROUND
reproduction of porifera
asexual- budding, fragmentation, gemnules

sexual- monecious ( have BOTH egg and sperm)
porifera differentiated from....
flagellated protistans
phylum placozoa
plate animals
phylum cnidaria
-jellyfish, sea anenomes
-9000 species, aquatic
-tissue: diploblastic
-radial symmetry
-nerve net- no cephalization
cnidocytes
injects neurotoxin into prey

contains nematocyst
how they eat
extracellular digestion- specialized cells secrete digestive enzymes that break apart prey organism

COMPLETE digestive tract
polymorphism
during lifetime, individuals have different body shapes

ex) cnidaria
1-polyp
2-medusa
polyp
SESSILE body plan
medusa
MOBILE body plan
how do cnidaria reproduce?
asexual- budding, fragmentation, pedal laceration, gonangium

sexual- MEDUSA produce egg and sperm
