Characteristics of Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes:

Mouth origin
Protostomes - blastopore
Deuterostomes - never from blastopore
Characteristics of Protostomes vs Deuterostomes:
Coelom formation
Protostomes: Schizocoely
Deuterostomes: Enterocoely
Characteristics of Protostomes vs Deuterostomes:

Cleavage pattern
Protostomes: Spiral
Deuterostomes: Radial
Characteristics of Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes:

2nd Cleavage cell fates
Protostome: Determinate
Deuterostome: Indeterminate
Schizocoelous
Solid masses of mesoderm split to form coelom
Enterocoelous
Folds of archenteron form coelom
Characteristics of Platyhelminthes
Flat, acoelomate, gastrovascular cavity, cephalization with anterior brain and paired longitudinal nerve cords, protonephridial system, and hemaphodites
Photonephridial system
flame cell (ciliated)
solenocyte (single flagellum)
3 Classes of Platyhelminthes and their common names:
Class Turbellaria – freshwater, terrestrial, and marine flatworms
Class Cestoda - tapeworms
Class Trematoda - flukes
Characteristics of Class Turbellaria
-Freshwater, marine and terrestrial
-Active carnivores (free living)
-Variation in development of gastrovascular cavity
-Both marine and terrestrial (still prefer damp, trop. or subtropical places)
Characteristics of Cestoda
-Scolex
-Proglottids
-No gut
-Tegument
-Non-ciliated syncytial covering
-Parasitic
Characteristics of Class Trematoda
Bilobed or two-branched gut
Tegument
Parasitic - 2 + hosts in life cycle
Definitive host – home of adult fluke
Intermediate hosts – homes of larval stages
Ectoparasites
parasites that remain on the outside of the host

(examples include monogenea, ticks, fleas, mosquitos, etc.)
Endoparasites

Define and provide 4 main types:
parasite that inhabits the internal organs or tissues of an animal

1. Parasitoid
2. Parasitic castrators
3. Single host
4. Multiple host
Parasitoid
Completely consumes host; many wasps and flies

Example: Wasp eggs on catepillar - Kills the host
Parasitic castrator
Castrates host prolonging host life; barnacles on crab
Single host (parasites)
Only one host is involved - primary host without the use of an intermediate.
Multiple host (parasites)
Definitive host – home of adult stage
Intermediate hosts – home of larval stages
Challenges for survival and reproduction by parasites?
1) Dispersal - Some produce massive number of propagules; Alter host behavior to enhance transmission;Prolong host life span

2) Evading host defenses -Cloaking and the parasite vaccine issue; Encapsulation

3) Energy - Alter host metabolism - castrators
