Phylum Annelida: Segmented Worms Body divided into repeating segments
Phylum Annelida Annelida: annulus- ring, annual Body appears to be divided into segments metamerism- each segment contains body systems, excretory, circulatory, nervous, digestive 3. Bilateral symmetry two body openings (mouth & anus) “ True” Eucoelomates- Live in every environment 7. Reproduce sexually (hermaphrodites) 8. Setae- hair or bristles- except for leeches Examples: bristleworms, earthworms, leeches
Body Systems No Respiratory- gas exchange through skin *Circulatory Complete Digestion Nervous Muscular Excretory Reproductive
* Circulatory System Closed – blood always in closed vessel Five pairs of aortic arches(hearts) Ventral and dorsal blood vessels and capillaries Hemoglobin
Digestive system Crop-”stomach”- stores food Gizzard- grinds food Intestine- nutrient absorption anus
Nervous System Pair of cephalic ganglia(bundle of nerves) Ventral nerve cord with ganglia in each segment (segmental ganglia)
Muscular System Longitudinal and Circular muscles Allows for better movement- can thrash and inch, raise head, etc.
Body wall Epithelium Circular muscle Longitudinal muscle
Excretory System Wastes processed through two nephridia(kidney) in each segment Nephridia, bladder and excretory pore

Reproductive System -Hermaphrodites -sexual reproduction - trochophore larvae
Trochophore larva- paddlelike, bristles Apical tuft Stomach Ciliary band Mouth Anus
Annelid development
Class Polychaeta Many setae(bristles) Parapodia(paddlelike appendages Marine Gonads only appear during breeding season Predators of small animals, prey for larger

Earthworms Digestive structures: Crop: temporary storage sac after mouth Gizzard: sac with muscular walls to grind soil Intestine: stretches length of body to aid in digestion of soil Anus: wastes are removed Other structures: Setae: bristles used for movement (ventral side) Clittelum: enlarged segment; secretes mucus & contains reproductive parts Anus Setae gizzard crop Clittelum Mouth

Class Hirudinea Anterior & posterior sucker-ectoparasite No setae hermaphrodites Most live in fresh water Dorsoventrally compressed(flat) Ex. leeches Feed Invertebrates Body fluids Blood
Fig. 17.21
Leeches Parasitic segmented worm Most live in fresh water Have no bristles for movement move with muscular contractions Suckers used for attachment to host Some have suckers on tail also http://arkive.org/medicinal-leech/hirudo-medicinalis/video-00.html
Secrete anesthetic during bite and release anticoagulant into blood during feeding (to keep blood flowing) Leeches were used in medical procedures years ago to “bleed” the sick remove “bad blood” now they are used in cosmetic surgery, digit and limb reattachment, and blood removal from bruises
