2. 34-2 Animal Bodies 3 structural features used to classify animals 1. Symmetry 2. Germ layers 3. Body cavities

3. Animal bodies range from those which have no body and lack tissues (sponges) to those that have tissues and body shape (most animals).

4. 1. Symmetry Symmetry * (constant overall pattern of structure) a. Asymmetrical b. Radial c. Bilateral

5. Symmetry

6. A. Asymmetrical No symmetry (sponge)

7. B. Radial Similar parts branch out from a central line (ex. Hydra)

8. C. Bilateral Two similar halves (most animals have this type of symmetry) dorsal: upper surface ventral: lower surface anterior: head region posterior: tail region right left

9. Cephalization Bilateral symmetrical animals exhibit cephalization  Sensory and brain are in anterior region  Have a head As move through their environment, the head proceeds to sense danger, prey or mate

11. 2. Germ Layers  issue type found in embryos of all animals except sponges.  ll body features, organs and tissues arise from a germ layer. All animals but cnidarians ( Jellyfish) and ctenophores ( relative) have 3 germ layers. The two listed here have only 2 germ layers.

12. Germ Layers

13. 3. Body Cavities (coelom)   Fluid filled space between digestive tract and outer wall of body Flatworms lack a body cavity (tapeworms). a. Aids in movement by providing a firm structure against which muscles can contract b. Allows movement of exterior of body, gives more freedom of movement c. Fluid acts as medium to transport nutrients and wastes

14. Coelom

15. Animal Diversity  Similarities in body parts and patterns of development allow scientists to classify animals and hypothesize about their evolutionary history.  Animals on same branch are more closely related. Chordates more closely related to echinoderms Fig. 34-5 p. 672

16. Invertebrates: 10 phyla 1.Annelida: earthworm 2.Arthropoda: lobster, crab, spiders 3.Echinodermata: starfish, sea star 4.Cnidarians: hydra, jellyfish 5.Mollusca: clams, snails, octopus, slugs, squids 6. Rotifera: rotifers 7. Protista: amoebas, paramecium, euglena

17. Vertebrates: 1 phylum   Phylum: Chordata (chordates) *has notochord: firm, flexible rod of tissue located in dorsal part of body and has dorsal nerve cord *in most vertebrates, the notochord forms backbone and dorsal nerve cord develops into the brain and spinal cord.   Subphylum: vertebrata 1. Chordata: amphibians (frogs), reptiles ( lizards), birds, mammals, fish
