Phylum Platyhelminthes "flatworms"

Phylum Platyhelminthes Flatworms Basic Characteristics Symmetry: Bilateral Parasites (absorb), carnivores, scavengers Aquatic(fresh & salt), Terrestrial, within a host Reproduction: Asexual (REGENERATION) and sexual acoelomate -no body cavity CEPHALIZATION or a head with ganglia or small brain

= mouth & anus Tape Worms (detect light) PLANARIA

Phylum Platyhelminthes Flatworms Special Adaptations One opening to digestive system, mouth&anus rely on diffusion to get oxygen eyespots to detect light move by cilia and body muscle reproduce asexually by fission & regeneration and sexually by being hermaphrodites, contain both male & female parts

Phylum Platyhelminthes Flatworms The Good And the Bad Free living flatworms often eat dead matter Flukes are parasitic flat worms Tapeworms, eat your digested food.

Schistosoma mansoni

Phylum Platyhelminthes Flatworms For Example…. Parasitic Tapeworm Non-parasitic planaria Parasitic Liver fluke

Phylum Nematoda “roundworms”

Phylum Nematoda Roundworms Basic Characteristics Symmetry: Bilateral Carnivores, Parasites, Scavengers Habitat: Aquatic, terrestrial, within a host, very diverse Reproduction: Sexual (internal fertilization)

Phylum Nematoda Roundworms Special Adaptations Two body openings, mouth & anus Pseudocoelom-false body cavity Diffusion carries nutrients and wastes

Phylum Nematoda Roundworms The Good And the Bad Used in scientific research Phylum well know for parasite species Some parasite worms can clog blood vessels Other worms eat host digested food

Phylum Nematoda Roundworms For Example…. Hook worms Trichinosis Ascaris (Heartworms) C. Elegans

Phylum Annelida “segmented worms”

Phylum Annelida “segmented worms” Basic Characteristics Symmetry: Bilateral Feeding: Carnivores, Scavengers, Parasites, very diverse Habitat: Terrestrial and Aquatic Reproduction: Mostly sexual (external fertilization for separate sexes), some species are hermaphroditic

Phylum Annelida “segmented worms” Special Adaptations Well-developed nervous system (brain and nerve cords Coelom-first to have true body cavity Closed circulatory system-does not rely on diffusion Hydrostatic Skeleton-longitudinal and circular muscles

Phylum Annelida “segmented worms” The Good And the Bad Decomposer, earthworms Medical uses, leeches Important part of food chain, terrestrial & aquatic

Phylum Annelida “segmented worms” For Example…. Earthworms Leeches Polychaetes, marines annelids

Germ Layers Segmented worms Roundworms Flatworms Coelomate Acoelomate Pseudocoelomate Coelomate Acoelomate  Ectoderm  Nervous system, epidermis of the skin, pituitary, lens of eye  Mesoderm  Muscles, skeleton, notochord, circulatory system, kidney, reproductive system  Endoderm  Lining of digestive tract, liver, pancreas, epithelial lining of lungs, many endocrine glands

Phylum Mollusca “the mollusks”

Phylum Mollusca “soft body” Basic Characteristics Bilateral Symmetry Herbivores, Carnivores, Filter-feeders, Scavengers, or Parasites Aquatic and Terrestrial Movement: Motile (very diverse ways, even jet propulsion!) Reproduction: Sexual (often external fertilization

Phylum Mollusca “soft body” Special Adaptations Gastropods shell-less or single-shelled mollusks, use muscular foot to move ex: slugs, snails Respire through diffusion Bivalves: Have two shells held together by muscles Ex: clams, oysters, mussels Respire with gills Cephalopods Squids, Octopi, and Chambered Nautiluses Show very intelligent, learned behaviors Feet with suckers

Phylum Mollusca “soft body” The Good And the Bad Large food source for humans and other animals Live symbiotically with other organisms Some are filter feeders, decomposers Used in scientific research

Phylum Mollusca “soft body” For Example…. Clams Oysters Nautilus Snails, slugs Octopus Squid

Phylum Echinodermata “spiny skin”

Phylum Echinodermata “spiny skin” Basic Characteristics Radial Symmetry Carnivores and scavengers Marine Motile, most use tube feet Reproduction: Sexual (external fertilization)

Phylum Echinodermata “spiny skin” Special Adaptations Spiny skin Internal skeleton Water vascular system Tube feet (suction), used to pry open clams, oysters

Phylum Echinodermata “spiny skin” The Good And the Bad Important in predator of urchins, clams Bio-indicators of marine life Crown-of-thorns, destroyed extensive areas of coral, especially the Great Barrier Reef

Phylum Echinodermata “spiny skin” For Example…. Sea Cucumbers Sea Urchins Brittle Star Sea Stars

Phylum Arthropoda “jointed appendages”

Phylum Arthropoda “jointed legs” Basic Characteristics Bilateral Symmetry Herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores Aquatic and Terrestrial, VERY diverse habitats Motile, using well-developed groups of muscles Sexual Reproduction(internal and external fertilization) Open Circulatory System

Basic insect internal structure HEAD THORAX ABDOMEN ANTENNA *Legs are always attached to thorax

Phylum Arthropoda “jointed appendages” Special Adaptations Exoskeleton of chitin, molting Jointed appendages Respiration: tracheal tubes, spiracles, book lungs Can taste and smell with mouthparts, antennae & legs Heightened sense of hearing and detecting movement Specialized mouthparts for eating almost anything Many can fly-have spread everywhere!
