4 characteristics of cnidarians.

Dimorphism


Radial symmetry


Diploblastic


Sting

_______ sponges appear to be larger versions of ascanoids, still having just a single osculum. However, the body wall is generally thicker and more complex with incurrent canals rather than simple pores.

Sycanoid

_______ sponges are the most complex in design in that not all the chambers are flagellated. These sponges are the best adapted to increase sponge size.

Leucanoid

_______ sponges have the simplest type of organization. Small and tube-shaped, water enters the sponge through dermal pores and flows into the atrium.

Ascanoid

How are intestinal platyhelmintheses protected from harsh digestive juices?

Using teguments, they are able absorb nutrients and block out digestive fluids.

Where does mature female schiztosome live and why?

Inside a groove in the male because otherwise finding a mate would be difficult.

Lives mostly in marine environments

Turbellaria

Main body mass is composed of proglottids

Cestoda

Parasitic flukes of various vertebrates, maybe endoparasites or ectoparasites

Trematoda

Mouth located along mid-ventral line of organism

Turbellaria

Endoparasite of human and other vertebrates

Cestoda

Mostly carnivores, feeding on smaller invertebrates

Turbellaria

Hermaphroditic, but do not self fertilize

Turbellaria
Cestoda

Totally dependent on host for nutrition, lack digestive track

Cestoda

Snail is first intermediary host, then fish, then final host

Trematoda

Usually swim or crawl by cilliary propulsion, sometimes by waves of muscle contraction

Turbellaria

What is a choanoflagellate, and why is it evolutionarily important?

Flagellated aquatic eukaryote
