1 Introduction to the Animal Kingdom & Animal Diversity

2 Are all of these animals? YES

3 Characteristics of Animals: Heterotrophic Eukaryotic Multi cellular Lack cell walls. 95% = invertebrates (do not have backbone) 5% = vertebrates (have a backbone)

4 Biology = study of life Physiology = Study of the functions of organs Anatomy = the structure of the organism/organs Zoology = study of animals

5 Characteristics if Life 1.Feeding: Herbivore = eats plants Carnivore = eats animals Omnivore = eats plants and animals Detritivore = feed on rotting organic material Filter Feeders = aquatic animals that strain food from water Parasite = lives in or on another organism (symbiotic relationship)

6 2. Respiration: Take in O 2 and give off CO 2. Lungs, gills, through skin. Simple diffusion.

7 3. Circulation: Very small animals rely on diffusion. Larger animals have circulatory system. Closed or open circulatory systems.

8 4. Excretion: Primary waste product is ammonia. 5. Response : Receptor cells = sound, light, smell, taste, touch, external stimuli Nerve cells => nervous system 6. Movement: Most animals move

9 7. Reproduction : Most reproduce sexually = genetic diversity Many invertebrates can also reproduce asexually to increase their numbers rapidly

10 Classification: showing how all life is connected

11 Animalia Branch = Eumetazoa Grade = Bilateria Division = Protostomia Deuterostomia Chordata Group= Craniata Sub Phylum = Vertebrata Super class = Gnathostomata Mammalia Primate Hominidae Homo sapiens

12 Phylogenetic tree: showing evolutionary development & connectedness.

15 Body Symmetry -the body plan of an animal, how its parts are arranged. Asymmetrical - no pattern (corals, sponges) Radially Symmetrical – round shape (starfish, hydra, jellyfish) Bilaterally Symmetrical - 2 mirror images along lateral line (humans, insects, cats, etc)

16 Identify the Symmetry

17 Gut types: Single opening: Through gut:

18 Cephalization -an anterior concentration of sense organs (to have a head) *The more complex the animals becomes the more pronounced their cephalization Octopus – member of the class Cephalopoda

19 Body Sides Anterior - toward the head Posterior - toward the tail Dorsal - back side Ventral - belly side

20 Segmentation - "advanced" animals have body segments, and specialization of tissue (even humans are segmented, look at the ribs and spine)

21 Trends in Animal Evolution Early Development Animals begin life as a zygote (fertilized egg)

22 The cells in the zygote divide to form the BLASTULA - a hollow ball of cells

23 The blastula pinches inward to form three GERM LAYERS TRIPLOBLASTIC

24 BODY CAVITY Coelom

25

26 THUS: Diploblastic = Never has coelom = diploblastic acoelomate Triploblastic = Doesn’t have coelom = triploblastic acoelomate Triploblastic = Does have coelom = triploblastic coelomate

27

28 Phylum Porifera – sponges Phylum Cnidaria – sea anemones, jellyfish, hydra

29 Phylum Platyhelminthes - flatworms Free-living PlanarianParasitic Tapeworm

30 Phylum Annelida – segmented worms

31 Phylum Arthropoda – crustaceans, insects, spiders This is the largest phylum in the animal kingdom and contains the most number of species

32 Phylum Chordata – includes all vertebrates
