1
What you already know (I hope)
2
Early Eukaryotes Kingdom Protista –Most diverse Kingdom Polyphyletic Should be split into multiple Kingdoms Many have sexual reproduction Autotrophs and heterotrophs
3
Acoelomates Key Features Three germ layers –Ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm –Mesoderm forms muscle and mesenchyme Organ-system level of organization –Cephalization –Excretory system –Some have circulatory and one-way alimentary canal
4
Acoelomates Body Plan
5
Phylum Platyhelminthes Specialized Cells –Rhabdites - secrete mucous sheath –Tegument - outer covering of syncytial cells –Flame cells – Osmoregulation –Some have endolecithal egg cells – yolk contained within egg cell
6
Platyhelminthes Cross Section
7
Tegument Syncytium –Apical cell membrane missing
8
Flame Cell Osmoregulation –Beating flagella creates negative pressure to draw fluid into chamber –Water is directed through channels then through an external pore
9
Major Classes of Platyhelminthes Class Turbellaria –Planaria – free living Class Trematoda –Liver flukes – endoparasites Class Monogenea –Fish ectoparasites Class Cestoda –Tape worms – endoparasites
10
Class Trematoda Similar in structure to Turbellaria Special adaptation for endoparasitic life style –Cyst glands –Suckers and hooks for griping host Digenetic – complex life cycle with multiple hosts
11
Liver Fluke
12
Liver Damage Caused By Flukes Scar tissue Blocked bile ducts
13
Flukes in Liver Section
14
Fasciolopsis - Anterior End
15
Schistosoma mansoni Blood fluke Male and female are dioecious
16
Schistosoma cercaria
17
Class Cestoda Tapeworms - endoparasites Key Features –Lack a digestive system –Composed of reproductive units called proglottids –Adult tegument covered in microvilli-like projections – increases surface area, non- ciliated
18
Tapeworm New proglottids are added just behind the scolex
19
Tapeworm Tegument Microvilli help with food adsorption Sensory cells – no other sense organs
20
Mature Proglottid Reproductive unit Mature proglottids are either shed or produce shelled embryos Each proglottid has both male and female organs
21
Tape Worm Life Cycle
22
Taenia solium Pork tapeworm
23
Taenia Cyst in Muscle
24
Phylum Nematoda Found everywhere Use pseudocoel as a hydrostatic skeleton –Collagen cuticle –Longitudinal muscles Free living and parasites Dioecious
25
Nematode Body Plan
26
Muscle Structure Longitudinal muscles –Parallel to ventral and dorsal nerve cords –Muscle cells form processes to associate with nerve cells –Muscles act against the hydrostatic skeleton
27
Muscle/Nerve Structure
28
Digestion and Metabolism Pharynx –Radial muscles Intestine –Single cell layer with no muscles –Body movement and ingestion moves food Parasitic nematodes often lack complete aerobic respiration
29
Arthropods Adapted to aquatic and terrestrial environments Probably first animals on land and in air Most diverse animal phylum
30
Segmentation Pair of appendages per segment –Reduced number for most arthropods –Specialized – locomotion, feeding, defense… Fused segments – tagmata –Head, thorax, abdomen
31
Exoskeleton Composition –Chitin – cross-linked polysaccharides –Protein and lipids –Calcium salts – very hard Advantages –Protection –Muscle attachment –Joints –Wings
32
Ecdysis
33
Respiration Terrestrial – trachea (network of breathing tubes) Aquatic – gills High oxygenation = high metabolic rate
34
Sense Organs Compound eye –Ommatidia Photoreceptors Lens Pigment cells Nerve fiber Antennae –Tactile, chemosensitive
35
Compound Eye
36
Subphylum Chelicerata No mandibles – mostly suck food Two tagmata –Cephalothorax –Abdomen Six pairs of appendages –1 pair chelicera –1 pair pedipalp –4 pair walking legs
37
Class Arachnida Spiders, mites, scorpions, ticks Terrestrial and marine Chelicera often develop into fangs or pincers Most feed by sucking fluid from prey or host Specialized organs –Excretory system - Malpighian tubles Allows conservation of water –Book lungs or book gills
38
Uniramia Key Features –Legs do not branch –Specialized feeding mandibles –Tracheal system of gas exchange –Malpighian tubules –Single pair of antennae
39
Insecta Over one million species Found all over the world –Not found in marine environment – dominated by crustaceans Structural Features –Tagmata – head, thorax, abdomen –Legs only from thorax –Wings
40
Insect Flight Muscles
41
Figure-8 Pattern Upstroke –Leading edge faces up Downstroke –Leading edge faces down
42
Flight Muscle Control Synchronous –One impulse = one stroke –Dragonflies, butterflies Asynchronous –One impulse = multiple strokes –Flies, bees, midges
43
Basic Anatomy
44
Digestive System Foregut –Mouth, esophagus, crop, gizzard –Grinding and storage Midgut –Stomach and gastric ceca (increases surface area) –Digestion and most absorption Hindgut –Intestine, rectum, anus
45
Excretion Malpighian Tubules –Extensions off of the intestine –Project into the haemocoel –Exchanges waste with haemolymph
46
Metamorphosis Holometabolous –Complete – example: butterfly –Egg Larva Pupa Adult –Many larval tissues disintegrate during pupa stage
47
Metamorphosis Hemimetabolous –Partial – example: roach –Egg Nymphs Adult –Nymphs are similar to adults
