1
Animal Architecture
2
Structure Hierarchy Cell Tissue Organ Organ System
3
Cell Structure Plasma membrane –Isolates cytoplasm from environment –Regulates molecular movement into and out of cell –Interacts with other cells/environment Cytoplasm –Water, salts, organic monomers and polymers –Often contains organelles Genetic material –DNA
5
Epithelial Tissue Covers internal and external structures Purpose –Protection –Secretion –Gas exchange Basement membrane and connective tissue support epithelial tissue
7
Connective Tissue Very diverse functions –Support Cartilage, bone, dense, loose –Energy storage Adipose –Gas exchange Red blood cells –Immune system White blood cells
9
Muscle Tissue Contain contractile unit composed of actin and myosin fibers Smooth Striated –Skeletal –Cardiac
10
Smooth Muscle –Invertebrates Body wall, ducts, sphincter –Vertebrates Controls diameter of tubes (blood vessels and digestive system) Involuntary
11
Striated Densely packed actin/myosin fibers gives striated appearance Multinucleated cells – syncytial Skeletal –Found in both vertebrates and invertebrates –Attaches to bones and cartilage in vertebrates Cardiac –Only found in vertebrate heart
17
Nervous Tissue Neurons – send and receive signals Neuroglia – support and protection
19
Metazoa Multicellular Motile (at some point in life cycle) Heterotrophic (consumer) Diploid (two sets of chromosomes) Development proceeding via a blastula
20
Choanoflagellate Protozoan Simple colonial flagellates No specialization Precursor to Metazoa
21
Spherical Colonies of Choanoflagellates Reproduction of the whole cell aggregate through gametes Cell specialization
22
Metazoa Classification
23
Three Basic Tissues Ectoderm –Outer germ layer –Skin, nervous system, etc… Mesoderm –Forms between ectoderm and endoderm –Connective tissue, muscle, vascular etc… Endoderm –Innermost germ layer –Gastrointestinal tract
24
Eumetazoa
25
Animal Symmetry Spherical – Radiolarians (protists) Radial – Cnidarians (jellyfish) Bilateral – Acoelomates (flatworms)
26
Symmetry
27
Developmental Patterns Cleavage Pattern –Radial vs. Spiral –Regulative vs. Mosaic Blastopore formation Coelom formation
28
Mesoderm and Coelomic Formation
29
Protostomes Vs. Deuterostomes Protostomes –Molluscs –Annelids –Pseudocoelomates –Acoelomates Deuterostomes –Chordates –Echinoderms
31
Bilateria
32
Protostomes Body Plans
33
Segmentation Body divided into somites (segments) Phyla –Annelida –Arthropoda –Chordata
34
Cephalization Concentration of nervous tissue –Development of brain and senses –Movement toward stimulus
35
Overview of Body Plans
