1. Kingdom Animalia

2. Eukaryotic with no cell walls Heterotrophs (consumers)
~ Characteristics ~
Multi-cellular
Eukaryotic with no cell walls
Heterotrophs (consumers)
motile

3. Characteristics Cont. Animal Movement
Motile, mobile
Most animals are capable of complex and relatively rapid movement compared to plants and other organisms.

4. Animal Reproduction
Most animals reproduce sexually, by differentiated haploid cells (eggs & sperm).
Most animals are diploid, meaning that the cells of adults contain two copies of the genetic material.

5. Characteristics of Life
1. Living things are organized.
2. Living things are made up of cells.
3. Living things metabolize.
4. Living things maintain an internal environment.
5. Living things grow.
6. Living things respond.
7. Living things reproduce.
8. Living things evolve.

6. Animal Sizes
Animals range in size from no more than a few cells to organisms weighing many tons
blue whale
a mesozoan

7. Animal Habitats
Most animals inhabit the seas, with fewer in fresh water and even fewer on land.

8. Animal Cell Diagram

9. Animal Bodies
The bodies of most animals are made up of cells organized into tissues.
Each tissue is specialized to perform specific functions.
Cells->tissues->organs->organ sys >organism

11. Animal Symmetry Describes how animal body structures are arranged
Allows animals to move in different ways
Cnidarians and echinoderms are radially symmetrical.
Most animals are bilaterally symmetrical.

12. Symmetry:
The most primitive
animals are
asymmetrical:
No symmetry

13. Radial Symmetry
forms that can be divided into similar halves by more than two planes passing through it.
Animals with radial symmetry are usually sessile, free-floating, or weakly swimming.

14. Radial Symmetry

15. Bilateral Symmetry
Animals with bilateral symmetry are most well-suited for directional movement.

16. Bilateral Symmetry

17. 95% of all animals are in this group
~Invertebrates~
No backbones
95% of all animals are in this group

18. ~ Protection and Support ~
exoskeleton – a hard, waxy coating on the outside of the body
endoskeleton – support framework within the body

19. ~Invertebrate Phylum Porifera~
Sponges
simplest form of animal life
live in water
Do not move around
no symmetry
5000 species

20. ~Invertebrate Phylum Porifera~
Examples: Tube Sponge, Glass Sponge, Sea Sponge

21. ~Invertebrate Phylum Cnidaria~
Live in water
Most have tentacles
catch food with stinging cells
gut for digesting

22. ~Invertebrate Phylum Cnidaria~
2 different shapes
Medusa - like a jellyfish
Polyp - like a hydra

23. ~Invertebrate Phylum Cnidaria~
Examples - Jellyfish, Hydra, sea anemones, and corals

24. ~Invertebrate Phylum Mollusca ~
Soft bodies
Hard Shells
Live on land or in water
have a circulatory system and a complex nervous system.
Important food source for humans

25. ~Invertebrate Phylum Mollusca ~
Class Gastropoda
snails and slugs
may have 1 shell
stomach-footed - move on stomach

26. ~Invertebrate Phylum Mollusca ~
Class Bivalves
2 shells hinged together
clams, oysters,
scallops and mussels

27. ~Invertebrate Phylum Mollusca ~
Class Cephalopods
squids and octopuses
internal mantel

29. ~Invertebrate Phylum Platyhelminthes: worms ~
Flatworms Example: Planaria, tape worms
Flat, ribbon-like body
Live in water or are parasites
lives in intestines of host absorbing food
bilateral symmetry
Regeneration- regrow body parts

30. ~Invertebrate : Flat WORMS Cont.~
eyespots detect light
scavengers & predators
lives in intestines of host absorbing food
food and waste
go in and out the same opening

31. Examples of flat worms

32. ~Invertebrate Phylum Annelida ~
Are Segmented worms
Have Body divided into segments (sections)
Live in water or underground
have a nervous and circulatory system

33. ~Invertebrate Annelida Cont~
Earthworms
eat soil and breakdown organic matter, wastes provide nutrients to soil

34. More annelids: segmented worms
leeches
parasites that feed on blood of other animals

35. ~Invertebrate Phylum Arthropod ~
Body divided into sections/segments
Exoskeleton – outer
Molt – shed exoskeletons as they grow
Jointed appendages (legs)
well developed nervous system
largest group of organisms on earth

36. ~Invertebrate Phylum Arthropod ~
Include the classes:
Crustaceans, arachnids, centipedes, millipedes, and
***Class insecta
Classified into classes according to the number of legs, eyes and antennae they have.

40. ~Invertebrate Phylum Arthropods~
Insects- 3 body sections
Head – antenna
Thorax – midsection (wings and legs)
Abdomen – (internal organs/structures)
grasshoppers, ants, butterflies, bees

44. ~ Phylum Chordata: Vertebrata~
5 classes
Fish
Mammals
Reptiles
Amphibians
Birds

45. Fish Are cold-blooded Have gills and scales Live in water
Have a Backbone
