Archenteron

The primitive digestive sac of a gastrula

Sponges

Sponge: Feeding

~ Filter Feeder which sift microscopic particles of food from water that passes through them. Food sticks to collar cells and is engulfed or it may be passed to amebocytes for digestion

Sponge: Internal Transport

~ The flow of water through the sponge serves as internal transport for O2, CO2 and wastes. The flagella of the collar cells sets up water currents through the sponge body

Sponge: Excretion

~ Metabolic wastes such as ammonia are released into the water and carried away


Sponge: Respiration

~ H20 flowing through the sponge releases O2 and gives off CO2

Sponges: Reproduction

~ Eggs are kept w/i the body wall; sperm may enter another sponge by H2O currents and are picked up by ameobocytes and carried to that sponges eggs where fertilization occurs.


~ Zygote > Larvae (swims) > Settles on substrate to grow into an adult

Cnidarians

~ Soft bodied animals


~ Stinging tentacles


~ Examples: Jellyfish, Corals, Hydras


~ Exhibit Radial Symmetry


~ Have specialized cells and tissues


~ an internal space called a gastrovascular cavity where digestion takes place


~ Capture and Eat Small Animals


~ Lack a central nervous system and muscle cells


~ Specialized epidermal cells that serve the same functions as muscle cells


~ Possess 2 true germ layers > Endoderm & Ectoderm


~ Ex) Hydra, Jellyfish

What is the function of the trigger?

The trigger is sensitive to touch and fires ~ the dart uncoils and buries itself in the skin of its prey

Tapeworm

Liver Fluke

Flatworms

~ Simplest animals with bilateral symmetry


~ Exhibit cephalization


~ Have a head

Roundworms

~ Simplest animals with a digestive system with two openings, a mouth and an anus


~ Several parasitic roundworms cause diseases in humans such as ascaris, Trichinella and hookworms

What is the purpose of the branches within the gastrovascular cavity of the Flatworm?

The enzymes help breakdown food into small particles which are taken inside of the cells which digestion is completed; Can diffuse to other body tissues.

Evidence Of Flatworm Cephalization

There is a simplified brain which is the centre of a simple nervous system that stretches along one or more nerve cords along either side of the body. They also have light sensitive eyespots in the head region.

Characteristics Of Roundworms

~ Bilateral symmetry


~ Cephalization


~ Tube Within A Tube Body Plan


~ Pseudocolem


~ Cylindical body that is tapered at each end


~ Organ system level of organization

Phylum Nematoda: Ascaris

~ Parasitic; Lives in humans


~ De-worming for pets


~ Sexes are separate


~ Has a cuticle which protects the worm from the digestive action of enzymes in the hosts small intestine.

Phylum Nematoda: Trichinella

~ Causes Trichinosis


~ Humans can get it by eating improperly cooked pork


~ Larvae form cysts which "hide out" in muscle tissue

Phylum Nematoda: Filarial Worms

~ Transmitted through biting insects in tropical regions


~ May cause tissue swellings or elephantitis

Phylum Nematoda: Eye Worm

~ Found in Africa predominantly


~ Causes River Blindness
