1. Mudflat Habitats

3. Characteristics Low energy areas – sheltered Made up of sand, mud, clay, detritus that has been deposited there Sediment – high organic content Often appear barren – a lot of life is under the sediment

4. What type of animals live here? Marine Worms – Burrow Mollusks – Burrow down into the sediment – using muscular foot Migratory Birds

6. Marine Worms

7. Segmented Worms Phylum Annelida Class Polychaeta – Body consists of a series of similar compartments segments – Gut goes through all segments and lies in the cavity known as the coelom

8. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms Includes earthworm, leeches, marine polychaetes (bristle worms) Body divided into ring-like segments Thousands of species

9. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms Coelom – fluid-filled body space – between digestive tube and body wall

10. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms More developed organ systems: – Digestive system – Nervous system – Circulatory system With hemoglobin to carry oxygen Closed – blood in veins, arteries and capillaries

11. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms

12. Many lifestyles: - burrow - swim - sessile - live in tubes

13. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms feeding strategies: Parasites - attach to other organisms and feed through suckers

14. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms feeding strategies: Suspension feeders – trap particles floating in water feather duster worm Christmas tree worms

15. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms feeding strategies: Deposit feeders – eat particles that have fallen to sea floor

16. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms feeding strategies: Predators – use “teeth” to grab prey

17. Phylum Annelida – segmented worms Sandworm & Clamworm – used for bait

18. The following animals all belong to the same PHYLUM. What characteristics do these animals share?

19. Compare the three classes of mollusks in terms of body plan, defensive strategies, and feeding strategies. Objective

20. Complete Sheet for “Shape of Life” – Remember that you are comparing the three classes based on structures (body plan), defensive strategies, and feeding strategies

21. Mollusks can be divided into three CLASSES: – BIVALVES: two shells – CEPHALOPODS: head connected to foot – GASTROPODS: big foot
