1
First Animals Soft bodies so trace fossils only Sponges Jelly fish
Worms Late Proterozoic
2
Time Line of Animal Evolution
1st Fossil evidence of animals 570 mya = Proterozoic Eon Massive adaptive radiation of animals called the Cambrian Explosion signaled the start of the Phanerozoic Eon Cambrian Explosion due to increased oxygen for aerobic respiration more energy = larger more mobile animals move into new areas and adapt
3
Phanerozioc begins with Cambrian Explosion
4
Evolution of Animals Some type of Protist mutated to become multicellular Multicellular organisms start as a single cell (zygote) and grow into organisms with groups of specialized cells performing different functions All animals are multicellular
6
Proterospongia = Protist & common ancestor to all animals?
7
Proterospongia: Colonial, Unicellular Protists
8
Sponge collar cells
9
Phylum Porifera Sponges Only 3 types of cells Collar cells Amoebocytes
Epidermis cells (protective outer layer of cells) No tissues Cells held together by jelly like substance Skeleton make of proteins Asymetrical
11
Intracellular digestion (like protists)
Collar cells take in food by endocytosis Food digested in food vacuoles Some food passed to amoebocytes Amoebocytes carry food around sponge body. (circulaton)
12
All other Animals have True Tissues & symmetry
13
Phylum Cnidaria Have stinging cells = cnidocytes Have tentacles
Radial symmetry = sit and wait predator 1st nervous system = nerve net & eye spots
17
Digestion & Circulation
Have gastrovascular cavity for digestion & circulation 1st extra cellular digestion – cells lining GVC secrete digestive enzymes Evolutionary advantage = can eat larger food Cillia push digested food around the GVC GVC branches into all tentacles: comes near all cells
19
All other animals have Bilateral symmetry
20
Flatworms had it FIRST!! Bilateral symmetry = evolved to facilitate directional motion = 1st mobile predator Cephalization – development of a head Ganglia: bundle of nerve cells make up a pre-brain Nerves concentrated at ‘head end’ since sensory cells were concentrated at that end Sensory nerves formed bundles = ganglion Eyespots detect light, Auricles detect chemicals ‘smell’ 2 nerve cords transmit info to rest of body
21
Evolution of Bilateral Symmetry
22
Flatworm primitive Traits
Central mouth and GVC
23
Free-living Flatworms = Class Turbellaria
Marine Fresh-water
24
Flukes = Class Trematoda
Parasites of blood and liver
25
Swimmer’s Itch =Schistosoma
26
Tape Worms = Class Cestoda
27
Human Tape Worm Sources =Under cooked Prevention Beef (N. America)
Pork(S. America) Fish (Asia) Prevention Cook your meat!!!
28
All Animals more advanced that flatworms have a body cavity
Provides room for organs to develop Body Cavities are called coeloms
29
Types of body cavity (coelom)
Acoelomate Pseudocoelomate Coelomate
30
Round Worms = Phylum Nematoda
1st Animal with a body cavity =pseudocoelom Fake body cavity – just a space between layers.
