Sessile as Adults No True Tissues Asymmetrical Pores: Multiple Openings Digestion & Excretion: Diffusion No Nerves or Muscles
Forms: Polyp & Medusa Two Tissues Radial Symmetry One Opening Gastrovascular Cavity: digestion, excretion & circulation Basic Contractile & Nerve Network
Cylindrical body with tentacles projecting outward, stationary Digestive compartment with a single opening. Can function in circulation, body support, waste & gas exchange Umbrella shaped with tentacles, move freely
Flame Cells (Excretion) Acoelomates Digestion & Excretion: Diffusion One Opening Ganglia (Simple Nerve Cells) Muscle
Two Openings Simple Circulatory System Acoelomates
Muscles use Coelomic Fluid Pseudocoelomates No Circulatory System Protostomes = Complete Digestive System
Muscles use Coelomic Fluid Pseudocoelomates No Circulatory System Unsegmented Protostomes
Foot, Visceral Mass & Mantle Protostomes Shell (CaCO 3 ) Gills Open Circulatory System (cephalapods are closed)
No Joints Protostomes Diffusion Muscles Closed Circulatory System Segmented Nervous System (simple)
Subdivision of the body into repeated parts, allows for greater flexibility & mobility Blood pumped into body cavities, organs bathed directly in blood Blood is enclosed in vessels, distributes materials to the body
