An Introduction to Animal Diversity

Characteristics of Most Animals

• 1. multicellular eukaryotes• 2. cell specialization

– (cells tissues organs)• 3. heterotrophs• 4. locomotion (sometime in lifecycle)• 5. nervous + muscle systems (stimuli)• 6. sexual reproduction

– (large, nonmotile eggs; flagellated sperm)

Marine Environments

• Advantages– Buoyancy – support– Temperature – stable– Fluid + salt balance easily maintained

• Challenges – Water movement/currents

• Adapt:– Strong swimmer – squid, fish, mammals– Sessile– Burrow in sand/silt– Small body size plankton (food supply around as tossed)

Other environments - problems

• Fresh water– Water hypotonic to animal fluids

• Osmoregulation - pump out water, keep salts (ATP)

– Less constant – Less food– Oxygen and temp. vary– Turbidity + water volume change

• Land – Desiccation

• Adapt: body covering; respiratory surface deep within animal

– Reproduction (desiccation)• Adapt: internal fertilization; shells on eggs; embryo

in mom– Temperature extremes

Body Symmetry

• 2 types– Radial

• wheel or cylinder form• Spokes from central axis

– Cnidarians – jellyfish, sea anemones– Echinoderms – sea stars

– Bilateral • Right and left halves – mirror images

(b) Bilateral symmetry

Types of Body Cavities

• Coelom = fluid-filled space between body wall and digestive tube

• Acoelomate– No body cavity

• Pseudocoelomate– Body cavity, not lined with mesoderm

• Coelomate – Body cavity completely lined

2 Main Groups of Coelomates

• Protostomes– “first, the mouth”– Mollusks, annelids, arthropods

• Deuterostomes – “second, the mouth”

• Echinoderms, chordates

Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesCleavage

• Protostomes– Spiral

• Deuterostomes– radial

Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesDevelopmental Fate of the Embryo

• Protostomes– “determinate”

cleavage– Fixed early– Can only become

certain cell types

• Deuterostomes– “indeterminate”

cleavage– Can adapt to become

another cell type

Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesBlastopore = (opening from outside to gut)

• Protostomes– Develops into the

mouth

• Deuterostomes– Develops into the anus– Later, 2nd opening

makes mouth

Sponges – Phylum Porifera

• “to have pores”• Bodies – tiny holes• Marine

Fig. 33-3a

A sponge

3 main classes of sponges

• Calcarea– Chalky, calcium carbonate spikes (spicules)

• Hexactinellida (glass sponges)– 6-rayed spicules with silica

• Demospongiae– Variable

• Fibrous protein = spongin• Silica• OR spongin + silica

Amoebocytes

Sponge Anatomy• Spongocoel

– Central cavity – water flows

• Ostia– Tiny pores, water enters

• Osculum– Open end, water exits

• Epidermal cells– Outer layer, line canals

Sponge Anatomy

• Canals– SA – food capture

• Porocytes– Tube like cells – form

pores– Regulate diameter by

contracting• Collar cells

Sponge Anatomy

• Collar cells– Inner layer– Create water current,

bring food and water to cells, carries away waste and CO2

– Trap and phagocytize food

– Tiny collar at base of flagellum

Sponge Anatomy

• Mesohyl– Gelatin-like layer– Between inner and

outer layers of sponge body

• Amoebocytes – In mesohyl– Digestion, food

transport, secrete spicules

Sponge Feeding

• Suspension feeders– Trap + eat whatever food the water brings– Water circulates in body– Food trapped on sticky collars of choanocytes– Food digested in collar or amoeboid cell – Undigested – out to water through osculum

Gas exchange/Excretion

• Diffusion – in/out of individual cells

Response to Stimuli

• No special nerve cells – can’t react as a whole

• Individual cells can respond

Reproduction of sponges

• Asexual– Fragment or bud

• Sexual – Hermaphrodite – egg + sperm– Some amoeboid cells become sperm, some eggs– Eggs/sperm made at different times cross fertilize– Sperm released into water, taken in by other sponges

of same species– Fertilization and early dev. In mesohyl– Embryo moves to spongocoel, leaves with water– Swims, attaches to solid object sessile

Cnidarians – Phylum Cnidaria

• marine• Solitary• colonies

Fig. 33-3b

3 classes of Cnidarians:

• Hydrozoa– Hydras, hydroids– Polyp dominant

• Scyphozoa– Jellyfish– Medusa dominant

• Anthozoa – Sea anemones, corals– No medusa

Body of Cnidarians

• Radial symmetry• Hollow sac w/ mouth + surrounding

tentacles at 1 end• Mouth leads to GV cavity (digestive)• Mouth – ingests food, expels waste

• Epidermis– Protective covering

• Gastrodermis– Lines gut, digestive

• Mesoglea– Gelatinous, acellular– Separates epidermis + gastrodermis

2 body shapes of Cnidarians

• Polyp– Dorsal mouth w/ tentacles– Hydra

• Medusa – Mouth on lower oral surface– Jellyfish

Response in Cnidarians

• Nerve nets– Nerve cells that connect sensory cells in body

wall to contractile + gland cells– Cells contacted, entire body responds –

crunches in

Feeding in Cnidarians (hydra)

• Paralyze prey with Nematocysts – Nematocysts

• Stinging cells (“thread capsules”)• In cnidocytes• Stimulated – release coiled, hollow thread• Sticky OR long and coil around prey OR

barbs/spines

• Prey pushed into mouth• GV cavity – digestion

– Body motion helps circulate contents

Gas exchange/Excretion

• Diffusion– No cell far from surface

Reproduction in Cnidarians

• Asexual– Budding – good conditions– Colony – buds remain on parent

• Sexual– Fall or stagnant water– Become males and females

• Female – ovary – single egg• Male – testis - sperm

– Zygote – may become covered with shell for winter

Comb Jellies – Phylum Ctenophora

• Marine• Luminescent• 8 rows cilia (comb)• 2 tentacles – no nematocysts – adhesive glue

cells• Radial symmetry• 2 cells layers w/ mesoglea• Mouth – food in; 2 anal pores – waste out (other

end)

Flatworms – Phylum Platyhelminthes

• Flat, elongated, acoelomate• Bilateral symmetry• Cephalization

– “head” at anterior – moves forward; eyespots• 3 germ layers –

– ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm• Muscular pharynx

– Takes in food – 1 opening mouth

Flatworms cont.

• Nervous system– Simple brain = 2 mass nerve tissue = ganglia

– connect to 2 nerve cords• Protonephridia

– Osmoregulation, waste disposal• Complex reproductive organs• No organs for circulation, gas exchange

– Diffusion through body wall

3 classes of Flatworms

• 1. Turbellaria– Free-living– Planarians – pond

• Crossed eyes• Auricles (“ears”) – locate food• Carnivore – mouth, pharynx, GV cavity• Reproduction

– asexual – splits in 2– Sexual – hermaphrodite – cross-fertilization

• 2. Trematoda + Monogenea– Flukes – blood + liver– Parasites– Hooks, suckers – attach to host– Complex reproduction

• 3. Cestoda– Intestinal parasite– Tapeworm – long, flat, ribbon-like – Suckers, hooks on scolex (head)– Body – proglottids (segments)

• Each proglottid – male and female organs (100,000 eggs)

– No mouth/digestive sys. – diffusion– Lacks sense organs
