Mollusca Bilateral symmetry Unsegmented, usually have a defined head
Main parts include: a muscular foot, a head, and a visceral mass (contains organs) Live in oceans, freshwater, and on land

Mollusca
7
Cone Snail 400 to 500 species of cone snaill mollusks
harmful to humans - deadly nerve poisons Hunt prey with a muscular, retractable proboscis that has a mouth, a salivary gland, and teeth.
8
Chambered Nautilus The Chambered Nautilus is a “living
fossil” – a member Of the cephalopods which includes octopus and squid. Close relatives date back 100’s of millions of years. It propels itself close to the sea floor by shooting water from its movable siphon.
9
Squid & Octopus Phylum Mollusca
10
Arthropoda Phylum includes 2/3 of all named species
Exoskeletons made of chitin—shed as the animal grows Segmented – head, thorax, abdomen Mouth and anus for digestion Developed special appendages Antennae for sensing environment Legs for walking or jumping, defense Wings for flying Mouthparts for chewing, piercing, sucking
11
5 Main Classes of Arthropods
Chilopoda Insecta Arachnida Crustacea Diplopoda
12
Arthropoda - Insecta Stink bug hawkmoth King cricket butterfly fly
dragonfly
13
Spiders
14
Scorpions The male and female scorpion sort of dance
around each other. The male drops the sperm packet; the female places it in her genital opening. After mating, the male may be eaten by the female. The female stores the sperm until an optimal time for fertilization. There are no eggs; the little scorpions develop and then move to the mother’s back for about a week.
15
Crustaceans Barnacles Lobster Crabs Water fleas - Daphnia
Horseshoe Crabs Candy Stripe Shrimp The Phylum Of Arthropods Crabs Water fleas - Daphnia
16
Echinodermata Echinoderm means ‘spiny skin’ in Greek
Endoskeleton – skeleton inside of skin Able to regenerate Radial symmetry Thousands of feet for moving across the seafloor
17
Sea Urchins and Starfish
Green Sea Urchins – Galapagos
18
Underside of Starfish Note tube feet Larva of starfish
19
Sand dollars, sea biscuits & sea cucumbers
Live ↓ The adult body is long and soft, with a muscular wall. The retractile tentacles around the mouth represent modified tube feet. Spines and rays are all lacking. Echinoderms
20
What is a vertebrate? Spinal cord - Vertebrates have a spinal column (vertebrae) to protect this Internal skeleton Many have jaws, paired appendages, lungs, 4 limbs Includes jawless fish, carilaginous fish, bony fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals Phylum Chordata
21
Jawless fish Have no jaw, lack vertebrae, skeletons of fiber & cartilage Hagfish Lamprey – “vampire of the sea”
22
Cartilaginous fish Lack true bone, skeleton built of cartilage
Paired fins, scales, gills Includes sharks, skates, and rays Grey nurse shark Hammerhead shark
23
Bony Fish Live in fresh water and salt water
Skeletons are made of true bone Live in fresh water and salt water
24
Amphibians Amphibian means “double life” because they live in water as larvae and on land as adults Larvae breathe through skin and gills Most adult species breathe with lungs, lack scales and claws, have moist skin that has mucous glands Reproduce through laying eggs without shells
25
Amphibians Cane Toad Poison dart frog Newts Salamanders
26
Birds and Reptiles Reptiles have dry, scaly skin.
Birds have feathers and wings.
27
Reptiles
28
Birds
29
Mammals 4 chambered hearts, lungs, kidneys Internal fertilization
Hair and mammary glands Flexible backbone
