Animal Kingdom
2
Symmetry - None No general body plan or axis of symmetry
3
Symmetry - Radial Body parts repeat around the center of the body
Bicycle wheel
4
Symmetry - Bilateral Only a single plane can divide the body into 2 equal halves
5
Body Plan Anterior front Posterior rear Dorsal top Ventral bottom
6
Porifera Examples Symmetry Digestion Other sponges none Filter-feeding
Collar cells collect food as water filters through the sponge
7
Cnidaria Examples: jellyfish, sea anemone Symmetry: radial
Digestion: 2-way Other: stinging cells (defense & feeding) diffuse nerve net
8
Platyhelminthes FLAT WORMS Examples Symmetry Digestion Other tape worm
bilateral Digestion 2-way Other Eye spots Concentration of nerves at head
9
Nematoda ROUND WORMS Examples Symmetry Digestion Other
Heart worm, pin worm Symmetry bilateral Digestion 1-way Other
10
Annelida SEGMENTED WORMS Examples Symmetry Digestion Other
Earthworm, leech Symmetry bilateral Digestion 1-way Other Segmentation: made up of a linear series of repetitive body parts
11
Arthropoda Examples Symmetry Digestion Other
centipede, insect, spider, crab, lobster Symmetry bilateral Digestion 1-way Other Segmented Exoskeleton made of chitin
12
Mollusca Examples Symmetry Digestion Other snail, squid, octopus, clam
bilateral Digestion 1-way Other Mantle: creates shell Well developed optics
13
Echinodermata Examples Symmetry Digestion Other
sea star, sand dollar, sea urchin Symmetry Bilateral (larvae) --> radial (adult) Digestion 1-way (some become 2-way) Other endoskeleton
14
Chordata Examples Symmetry Digestion Other
fish, amphibian, reptile, bird, mammal Symmetry bilateral Digestion 1-way Other Endoskeleton Closed circulatory system
15
Chordata - cont’d 4 shared characteristics: Dorsal nerve cord
brain & spine Notochord backbone Gill slits gills or lungs Post-anal tail Exothermic: “cold-blooded” -body temp is regulated by external environment Endothermic: “warm-blooded” -maintain body temp by converting food to heat
16
Fish Amphibian Reptile Bird Mammal
Classes of Chordata Fish Amphibian Reptile Bird Mammal
17
Agnatha - jawless fish
18
Chondrichthyes Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization Other
Exothermic Some homeothermic? Heart 2-chambers Respiration Gills Fertilization External or internal Other Skeleton = cartilage Inhibits tumor growth? Some lay eggs, some give live birth Large, oily liver helps with bouyancy
19
Osteichthyes Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization Other
exothermic Heart 2-chambers Respiration gills Fertilization External (sperm & egg meet outside the body) Other Swim bladder Lateral line system
20
Amphibian Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization Other exothermic
3-chambers Respiration gills, skin, lungs Fertilization external Other Adapted to life in & out of water All must return to water for reproduction
21
Reptiles Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization
Exothermic chambers (crocs = 4-chambers) Respiration Fertilization Lungs internal (sperm+egg meet inside the body) Other : internal fertilization Makes return to water unnecessary Provides better protection for sperm Do not need to lay as many eggs
22
Amniotic Egg Reptiles first to introduce amniotic egg
Yolk = food for embryo Allantois = collects waste Chorion = allows gas exchange Shell = protection *Prevents embryo from drying out
24
Aves (aka Birds) Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization Other
endothermic Heart 4-chambers Respiration lungs (very efficient) Fertilization internal Other Eggs must be incubated Adapted for flight …..
25
Adaptation for flight Decreased body weight Feathers Hollow bones
No teeth Strong muscles Excrete highly concentrated urine with very little water (uric acid) Strong muscles Excree highly concentrated urine with very little water (uric acid)
27
Mammals Body temp Heart Respiration Fertilization Other endothermic
4-chambers Respiration lungs Fertilization internal Other Hair, fur, or vestiges Mammary glands Largest, developed brains Specialized teeth Increased parental care
28
Monotremes Reproduce by laying eggs Platypus, echidna
29
Marsupials Give birth to small, immature young that further develop inside an external pouch Kangaroo, koala
30
Placenta Young develop inside mother’s body until birth
95% of all mammals are placental
31
