Chapters 25 and 26
Objectives
List the characteristics
that all animals share.
Differentiate between
invertebrates and
chordates.
Describe some features
of animal body plans.
Heterotrophic
Multi-cellular
Eukaryotic
No cell walls
Invertebrates – 95% of animals
Lack a backbone
Examples:
Jellyfish
Seastar
Worm
Insect
Chordates – 5% of animals
Characteristics:
1. Dorsal, hollow nerve chord
2. Notochord
Long supporting rod running length of body
3. Tail extending past anus
4. Pharyngeal pouches
Paired structures in throat region
Most are vertebrates (animals with backbones)
Examples: fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds,
mammals
List the characteristics all animals have
Multicellular, heterotrophs, eukaryotes, no cell
walls
What characteristic do all invertebrates share?
No backbone
What characteristics do all chordates have
sometime in their life cycle?
Hollow nerve cord, notochord, postanal tail,
pharyngeal pouches
Cells
Tissues
Organs
Organ systems
Organism
Asymmetry – no symmetry
Radial symmetry – body parts
extend from central point
Bilateral symmetry – two sides
(mirror image)
Anterior – front
Posterior – back
Dorsal – upper
Ventral - lower
Cells of most animal embryos differentiate
into:
Endoderm – innermost layer
Mesoderm – middle layer
Ectoderm – outermost layer
Body cavity – fluid filled space between
digestive tract and body wall
Acoelomate – no body cavity
Pseudocoelomate – body cavity partially lined
with mesoderm
Coelomate – body cavity lined with mesoderm
Zygote – fertilized egg
Develops into blastula
(hollow ball of cells)
Blastopore – single
opening to outside
formed as blastula
folds inward
Protostome –organism in which blastopore
becomes mouth
Deuterostome –blastopore becomes anus
List the levels of organization
Cells Tissues Organs Organ systems
Organisms
What type of symmetry do each of the
following have?
Radial
Bilateral
Asymmetry
Radial
Identify the sides of the animal that are labeled:
dorsal
ventral
anterior
posterior
What germ layer is the outermost layer?
Ectoderm
What germ layer makes up the linings of the
digestive tract and respiratory system?
Endoderm
If an organism has a body cavity partially
lined with mesoderm, what is it called?
Pseudocoelomate
What is a fertilized egg called?
Zygote
Organism in which blastopore becomes
anus:
Deuterostome
What is an organism with a body cavity
partially lined with mesoderm called?
Pseudocoelomate
Objectives
Describe characteristics of
invertebrate phyla.
“Pore-bearer”
Ex. Sponges
No tissues or organ
systems
Asymmetrical
Filter feeders
“Nettle” or “Stinger”
Ex. Hydras, Jellyfish,
Sea anemones, Corals
Cells organized into
tissues
Radial symmetry
Feed by stinging prey
with nematocysts,
mouth
gastrovascular cavity
Arthropods- “Jointed
foot”
Ex. Insects,
crustaceans, spiders
Segmented body,
exoskeleton of chitin,
jointed appendages
Ex. pinworms
Bilateral symmetry
Tissue layers
Pseudocoelomate
Digestive system with
mouth and anus
Molt (shed skin) as
they grow
Ex. planarians,
flukes, tapeworms
Bilateral symmetry
Three tissue layers
Acoelomate
Ex. earthworms, leeches,
bristleworms
Bilateral symmetry
Tissue layers
Coelomate
Digestion- mouth
and anus, pharynx
Circulation- closed
system (blood
contained in vessels)
Respiration- some
gills, skin
Excretion- Nephridia,
anus
Nervous- brain and
nerve cords
Reproduction Sexual: (most),
separate sexes,
hermaphrodites
Mollusks
Ex. Gastropods
(snails), Bivalves
(clams), Cephalopods
(squid)
Internal or external
shell
Bilateral symmetry
Tissue layers
Coelomate
Echinoderms- “Spiny
skin”
Ex. Sea Stars, Sea
Urchins, Sand Dollars
Internal skeleton
Water vascular
system (tube feet)
Radial symmetry
Objectives
Describe characteristics of chordate phyla.
Two invertebrate subphyla:
Cephalochordata:
Urochordata:
lancelets
tunicates
No true jaws or teeth
Lack vertebrae
Skeleton made of cartilage
Ex. Lampreys, hagfish
Skeleton made of cartilage
Paired fins
Most have tooth-like scales
Ex. Sharks, rays, skates
Skeleton of true bone
Paired fins, scales, gills
Swim bladder
Ex. Perch, bass, flounder
Means “double life”
Young: live in water and breathe with
gills
Adult: live on land and breathe with
lungs and skin
Undergo metamorphosis
Dramatic change in body form
Moist skin with mucous glands
Lack scales and claws
Ex. Frogs, toads, newts,
salamanders
Digestive/Excretory:
Developed: stomach, intestines, etc.
Nervous:
Developed: large eyesgreat sight
Circulatory:
Closed circulatory system
Three chamber heart
Reproductive:
Most lay eggs without shells in water
External Fertilization
Respiratory:
Gills when immature, lungs and skin when mature
(skin must stay moist to function)
Vertebrates with lungs
Scaly skin
Leathery shelled amniotic eggs
Ex. Lizards, snakes, turtles,
crocodiles, dinosaurs
Warm-blooded
Feathers
Strong light-weight bones
Hard-shelled amniotic eggs
Two scaly legs and wings as
fore-limbs
Ex. Hawk, eagle, penguin,
ostrich, hummingbird, robin
Warm-blooded
Feed young with milk from
mammary glands
Hair or fur
Breathe air
Four-chamber heart
Many groups of mammals Insect-eating, Water-dwelling,
Hoofed, Gnawing, etc.
Monotremes
Egg-laying mammals
Ex. Platypus
Marsupials
Give birth to under-developed young
Young develop in the pouch of the mother
Ex. Kangaroo, koalas, possum
Placental mammals:
Give birth to young that have developed in
the mother’s body
Ex. Humans, Dogs, Mice
