Introduction to animals Introduction to Animals
2
Traits
3
Characteristics of Animals All multicellular (metazoans) Eukaryotes (cells with nucleus & organelles) Ingestive heterotrophs (take in food and internally digest it) Store food reserves in the liver as glycogen
4
Lions Feeding (Ingestion)
5
Support Systems Have some type of skeletal support Endoskeleton inside and made of cartilage &/or bone Exoskeletons found in arthropods –Cover the outside of the body –Limit size –Must be molted making animal vulnerable to predators
6
Cicada Molting Exoskeleton
7
Support Systems Worms and echinoderms (starfish) have fluid-filled internal cavities giving them support Called hydrostatic skeletons
8
Movement Animals such as sponges may be sessile (attached & non-moving) Animals that move very little are said to be sedentary (clam) Animals that can move are motile Have muscular tissue to provide energy for movement
9
SESSILESEDENTARY MOTILE Sponge Chiton Cheetah
10
Reproduction in Animals sexual reproduction Some like sponges and earthworms are hermaphrodites produce eggs and sperm may exchange sperm and NOT fertilize their own eggs
11
Leeches Exchange Sperm During Mating Mating leech
12
Reproduction in Animals Females of some animals produce eggs, but the eggs develop without being fertilized Called Parthenogenesis New offspring will be all female occurs in some fishes, several insects, and frogs and lizards
13
Parthenogenesis in the Komodo Dragon
14
Mating and Mating Behaviors Beetles Mating Male Female Young Courtship
15
Levels of Organization Sponges =ONLY animals with just cellular level All others show– cell, tissue, organ, and system Cells may specialize (take own different shapes and functions) Cells held together by cell junctions to form tissues
16
Atom Molecule or compound Organelle CELL Levels of Organization Tissue Organ Organ system Organism Life begins
17
Invertebrate groups
18
Characteristics of Invertebrates Simplest animals greatest number of different species Most aquatic (found in water) NO backbone Includes sponges, cnidarians, flatworms, roundworms, annelids, mollusks, arthropods, and echinoderms
19
Sponge - Porifera Osculum of Sponge
20
20 Sponges and Cnidarians
21
Sea Anemone - Cnidaria Tentacles of Sea Anemone
22
More Cnidarians Brain Coral Red jellyfish
23

24
Flatworms - Platyhelminthes Planarian Marine Flatworm
25
Roundworms (Nematoda) and Segmented Worms (Annelida) Nematode Leech (segmented worm)
26
Mollusca (With and Without Shells) snailscallop nautilus sea slug octopus
27
Arthropoda (insects, spiders, crustaceans, horseshoe crab) Dung beetle Horseshoe crab crayfish spider
28
Echinoderms Sea cucumber Sand dollar starfish Brittle star Sea fan (crinoid)
29
Vertebrate Groups (Phylum Chordata, Subphylum Vertebrata)
30
Vertebrata More complex backbone of vertebrae simplest phylum to most complex: fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals
31
Vertebrate Backbone
32
Vertebrata endoskeletons (internal) Some have skeletons of cartilage (sharks, rays, and skates)
33
Bone & Cartilage in Fetus
34
Fish lancelet ray anglerfish damselfish
35
Amphibia toad newt frog salamander
36
Reptilia Turtle Snake Alligator Lizard
37
37 Reptiles
38
Birds - Aves hummingbird ostrich lovebirds
39
Mammalia
40
Body Areas
41
Surfaces Dorsal – back Ventral – belly Anterior –front end Posterior –hind end Oral surface–mouth Aboral surface–opposite the mouth
42
DORSAL VENTRAL Surfaces (Most Animals) ANTERIOR POSTERIOR
43
Surfaces (Echinoderms) ORAL ABORAL mouth
44
Symmetry
45
Body Symmetry
46
Symmetry = arrangement of body parts around central axis Asymmetry
47
Body Symmetry Radial symmetry = body parts arranged around central point like spokes (echinoderms) –Most with radial symmetry are sessile (attached) or sedentary (move very little)
49
Body Symmetry Bilateral symmetry = divided into equal halves right and left sides are mirror images More complex
50
Body Symmetry bilateral symmetry, usually motile anterior and posterior ends Show cephalization concentration of sensory organs on the head
52
Segmentation
53
Segmentation Earthworms show external segmentation Humans show internal segmentation (backbone) Segments may fuse (cephalothorax)
54
Segmentation cephalothorax
55
Tissues
56
Tissue Development Zygote (fertilized egg) undergoes rapid cell divisions =cleavage Forms a hollow ball of cells =blastula
57
Blastula The blastocoel = center cavity of blastula with 1 germ layer (blastoderm)
58
Tissue Development folds inward at one point =Gastrulation opening =blastopore blastopore Archenteron
59
Tissue Development Blastopore may become mouth (Protostome) or anus (Deuterostome) Protostomes (mollusks, arthropods, & annelids) Deuterostomes (echinoderms & vertebrates) Some animals form a middle germ layer called mesoderm
60
Embryonic Development
61
Germ Layers NOT present in sponges Ectoderm (outer) – forms skin, nerves, sense organs Endoderm (inner) – forms liver and lungs Mesoderm (middle) – forms muscles & other systems
63
Body Layers All worms, mollusks, arthropods, echinoderms, and vertebrates have three cell layers –Ectoderm –Endoderm –mesoderm
64
Stages of Development
65
Larval Forms Animals with Indirect development Larva does NOT resemble adult Cnidarian larva = Planula
66
Larval Forms Mollusk (squid & octopus) larva = trochophore Echinoderm (starfish) larva is = Dipleurula
67
Metamorphosis Usually found in arthropods May be complete or incomplete Incomplete Metamorphosis: egg nymph adult Complete Metamorphosis: egg larva pupa adult
68
Metamorphosis COMPLETE INCOMPLETE
69
Body Cavities
70
Coelom - Body Cavity Internal body cavity fully lined with mesoderm Body organs suspended in this cavity
71
Coelom - Body Cavity Acoelomate =solid bodies filled with cells Ex.sponges, cnidarians, & flatworms
72
Coelom - Body Cavity Pseudocoelomate = (roundworms) = functional body cavity NOT fully lined with mesoderm
73
Animal Systems
74
Support Systems Spongin & spicules (sponges) Limestone cases (corals) Exoskeletons of Chitin (arthropods) –Must be shed or molted to grow Inner Calcium plates (echinoderms) Bone/cartilage endoskeleton (vertebrates)
75
Digestive Systems All animals = ingestive heterotrophs Gastrovascular cavity with one opening in cnidarians & flatworms = two-way digestive system
76
Two-Way Digestion
77
Digestive Systems one-way digestive system = mouth and an anus Includes annelids, arthropods, & vertebrates
78
One-Way Digestion Mouth anus
79
Circulatory Systems Transports oxygen & nutrients to cells Carries away wastes & carbon dioxide from cells Sponges, cnidarians, & flatworms do NOT have circulatory systems
80
Circulatory Systems In closed circulation, blood remains inside blood vessels until it reaches cells (annelids & vertebrates) In open circulation, blood is pumped out of blood vessels to bathe tissues in the body cavity or hemocoel (arthropods & mollusks)
81
Open Circulation Closed Circulation
