3
Why are we learning echinoderms right before chordates?? features characteristic of deuterostome mode of development Their DNA are closely similar copyright cmassengale
6
Diversity Echinodermata means “spiny skin” Echinoderms usually inhabit shallow coastal waters and ocean trenches organisms in this class include: Sea stars Brittle stars Sand dollars Sea cucumbers copyright cmassengale
7
Characteristics change from a free-swimming bilaterally symmetrical larva to a bottom-dwelling adult with radial symmetry. Most have five radii or multiples which is known as pentaradial symmetry they have an endoskeleton that is made up of calcium plates, may include protruding spines copyright cmassengale
8
Have small feet called tube feet that aid in movement, feeding, respiration, & excretion. Do not have circulatory, respiratory of excretory systems. Have a nervous system but no head or brain. There are two sexes and they can produce sexually and asexually. copyright cmassengale
9
Taxonomists have divided 6,000 species of echinoderms into five classes: copyright cmassengale
10
Crinoidea Asteroidea Ophiuroidea Echinoidea Holothuroidea copyright cmassengale
11
Crinoidea (“lilylike”) They include: Sea lilies Feather stars Crinoidea are sessile (attached directly by its base) they have long stalks that attach to rocks or to the ocean floor feather stars eventually detach themselves Sticky tube feet that are at the end of each arm catch food and serve as a respiratory surface. copyright cmassengale

13
Asteroidea (“star-like”) starfish or sea stars belong in this class found all over coastal shores around the world prey on oysters, clams, and other sea food copyright cmassengale

15
Ophiuroidea (“snakelike”) largest echinoderm class includes basket stars & brittle stars primarily reside under stones & in crevices and holes of coral reefs have thin brittle arms that break off & regenerate themselves quickly feed by raking food off the ocean floor with their arms and bottom of tube feet also trap food with mucus strands between their spines. copyright cmassengale

17
Echinoidea (“hedgehoglike”) sand dollars & sea urchins test: rigid endoskeleton that the internal organs are compacted in Aristotle’s lantern: complex jaw-like mechanism that is used to grind their food locomotion: tube feet protection: barbs on their long spines that are sometimes venomous copyright cmassengale

20
Sand dollars live along seacoasts & sandy areas flat, round shape bodies; and adaptation for shallow burrowing locomotion: short spines (also aid in burrowing & cleaning their bodies) use tubes to filter food out of water copyright cmassengale

22
Holothuroidea sea cucumbers belong in this class bodies are soft how they feed: tentacles around the mouth sweep up sediment from the water protection: eject internal organs through the anus. Lost parts are later regenerated. Process called evisceration copyright cmassengale

Structure & Function copyright cmassengale
25
Body Plan of the Sea Star oral surface: mouth located on the underside of the body aboral surface: top of the body ossicles: sharp protective spines made of calcium plates, covered with thin epidermal layer pedicellariae: tiny forceps that protect and clean the body surface copyright cmassengale
28
Water-Vascular System hydrostatic pressure permits movement copyright cmassengale
29
ampulla: bulblike sac that each foot connects to feet contract, water enters and are able to suction onto surface of slippery rocks copyright cmassengale
30
Feeding & Digestion uses feet eat mollusks, worms, and slow-moving animals enzymes help digest food copyright cmassengale
31
Other Body Parts fluid in coelom bathes organs & distributes nutrients & oxygen skin gills: protect coelom lining; gases are exchanged nerve ring: surrounds mouth & branches off into nerve cords in each arm. Eyespots: on each arm that responds to light tentacles: responds to touch copyright cmassengale
32
Reproduction each arm produces sperm & egg occurs externally bipinnaria: free-swimming larva that a fertilized egg develops into settles in the bottom and develops into an adult through metamorphosis reproduce asexually by regenerating lost parts copyright cmassengale
33
