1
Evolution of Animals (Metazoa) BIOL 1407
2
Animal Body Plan Tissues –Absent = Parazoa –Present = Eumetazoa
4
Radial Symmetry Encounter environment equally from all sides Sessile, sedentary or planktonic Sea Anemone Feeding Video http://www.mbayaq.org/efc/video_library/vid eo_library.aspxhttp://www.mbayaq.org/efc/video_library/vid eo_library.aspx Then click on “Anemone Feeding” Jellyfish Swimming http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=760lUxyle6I
5
Bilateral Symmetry Central nervous system in head Active movers Frilled lizard video http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/pl ayer/animals/reptiles- animals/lizards/lizard_frilled_ontherun.html?f s=animals.nationalgeographic.comhttp://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/pl ayer/animals/reptiles- animals/lizards/lizard_frilled_ontherun.html?f s=animals.nationalgeographic.com Crocodile gallop video http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/natsci/herpetology/ brittoncrocs/images/cj-gallop2.mpghttp://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/natsci/herpetology/ brittoncrocs/images/cj-gallop2.mpg
6
Number of Germ Layers Diploblastic: has two germ layers –Endoderm –Ectoderm Triploblastic: has three germ layers –Endoderm –Mesoderm –Ectoderm
7
Question?
8
Body Cavities What is a body cavity? –Fluid-filled cavity separates digestive tract from body wall
9
Body Cavities Advantages: –Fluid cushions organs –Acts as hydrostatic skeleton –Allows internal organs to move independently of body wall –Allows internal organs space for folding
13
Development Protostome –Fate of blastopore –Type of cleavage: spiral and determinate –Coelom formation Deuterostome –Fate of blastopore –Type of cleavage: radial and indeterminate –Coelom formation
15
Animation of Spiral and Radial Cleavage http://worms.zoology.wisc.edu/urchins/rad_spir.html
16
Schizocoelous Enterocoelous
18
Sister Taxon
19
Model of Early Animal Evolution
20
Evolution of Animals Earliest animal fossils Fossilized embryos from China 575 mya
21
Ediacaran Fauna 565-550 mya Australia Soft-bodied animal fossils What type of symmetry?
22
Ediacaran Fauna Animal fossil Many body segments Head What type of symmetry?
23
Cambrian Explosion 535-525 mya Animal diversity ↑↑ 50% extant animal phyla in fossil record
24
Burgess Shale Fossils
25
Cambrian Explosion First animals with hard mineralized skeletons 1 st arthropods, chordates & echinoderms
26
Hypotheses for Cambrian Explosion (1) Predator-prey coevolution (2) Rise in atmospheric oxygen levels ↑ metabolic rate and body size (3) Evolution of Hox genes developmental flexibility
27
Traditional Phylogenetic Tree Was based on body plans –Tissues absent or present –Type of symmetry –Types of body cavities –Protostomes versus deuterostomes
29
Modern Phylogenetic Tree Based on molecular data
30
Modern Phylogenetic Tree Reinforces some of traditional tree –Parazoa vs. Eumetazoa –Radial vs. Bilateral –Deuterostomes are a clade
31
Modern Phylogenetic Tree Radical affects on other parts –Body cavity characteristics are analogous –Two main lineages for most invertebrates Lophotrochozoa Ecdysozoa
33
Lophotrochozoa Clade named for presence of either a: –Lophophore (horse-shoe shaped ciliated feeding apparatus) –Trochophore larva
34
Lophotrochozoa
36
Ecdysozoa Clade was named for presence of Ecdysis = molting Produce an exoskeleton Must be shed as animal grows
