Introduction to Animal Evolution
Animals Introduction to Animal Evolution
2
What is an Animal? Multicellular, heterotrophic, eukaryotes
Cells lack cell walls, held together by structural proteins (collagen) Contain nervous and muscle tissue Most reproduce sexually with a dominant diploid stage
3
Development Zygote (cleavage) Morula Blastula Gastrula Blastopore
Archenteron Two layers of tissue (endoderm & ectoderm)
4
Origin of Animals
5
Animal Phylogeny Overview
Organization Level Body Symmetry Body Cavities Development Segmentation
6
Organization Level Cellular Level vs. Tissue Level
Cellular Level: Porifera (sponges) Tissue Level: all others
7
Body Symmetry Radial vs. Bilateral
Radial Symmetry: Cnidaria & Ctenophora Bilateral Symmetry: all others
8
Body Cavities Acoelomates: Platyhelminthes (flatworms)
Pseudocoelomates: Nematoda (roundworms) Eucoelomates: all others store nutrients movement hydrostatic skeleton space for organ development
9
Development Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes
10
Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes
Cleavage Radial and Indeterminate Coelom Formation Enterocoelous Formed from pockets of the archenteron Fate of Blastopore Anus Cleavage Spiral and Determinate Coelom Formation Schizocoelous Formed from 4D cells Fate of Blastopore Mouth
11
Development Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes Protostomes: Deuterostomes
Mollusca (clams, snails) Annelida (segmented worms) Arthropoda (Crustaceans, insects) Deuterostomes Echinodermata (Seastars) Chordata (vertebrates)
12
Animal Phylogeny
13
Points of agreement 1. All animals have common ancestor
2. Sponges are basal animals 3. All other animals have true tissues 4. Most animals are bilateral 5. Chordates and Echinoderms are related (deuterostomes)
14
Protostome Clades Animals not in the clade deuterostomes (protostome development) are divided into two groups: Ecdysozoans Lophotrochozoans
15
Animal Structure and Function
16
Groups of cells with a common structure and function
Tissue Groups of cells with a common structure and function
17
Tissues Epithelial Tissue Connective Tissue Nervous Tissue
tightly packed cells used for lining Connective Tissue cells scattered through an extracellular matrix Nervous Tissue transmits signals (neurons) Muscle Tissue fibers for contraction
18
Epithelial Tissue Cell layers Shape of Cells Simple Stratified
Pseudostratified Shape of Cells Cuboidal Columnar Squamous
23
Connective Tissue Collagenous Fibers Elastic Fibers Reticular Fibers
Collagen (most abundant protein) Elastic Fibers Elastin (protein) Reticular Fibers Collagen join connective tissues
25
Connective Tissue Loose Connective Tissue
binds epithelial to underlying tissue Fibroblasts (extracellular fibers) Macrophages (immune system)
26
Connective Tissue Adipose Tissue Fibrous Connective Tissue stores fat
Tendons Ligaments
27
Connective Tissue Cartilage Bone chondrocytes osteoblasts
Haversian system
28
Connective Tissue Blood plasma erythrocytes leukocytes platelets
29
Nervous Tissue Neurons Cell body Axons Dendrites
30
Muscle Tissue Skeletal Cardiac Smooth
34
Organ Systems
