What do Echinoderms look like?
Pentamerous radial symmetry. Oral and aboral surfaces. Oral surface has ambulacral grooves associated
with tubefeet called podia.
What do Echinoderms look like?
Oral and aboral surfaces.
What do Echinoderms look like?
Arms (ambulacra) numbered with reference to the madreporite. Ambulacrum opposite is A then proceed couterclockwise.
Ambulara C and D are the bivium, A B and E are the trivium.
What do Echinoderms look like?
Epidermis covers entire body. Endoskeleton of ossicles with
tubefeet and dermal branchia protruding through and spines and pedicellaria on outside.
Body wall
What do Echinoderms look like?
Ossicles can be fused into a test (urchins and sand dollars). Ossicles spread apart in cucumbers. Ossicles intermediate and variable in seastars. Muscle fibers beneath ossicles.
Body wall
What do Echinoderms look like?
Tubercles and moveable spines on skeletal plates of echinoids.
Small muscles attach spines to test.
Body wall
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Fluid-filled canals for internal transport and locomotion.
Fluid similar to sewater but has coelomcytes and organic molecules.
Moved through system with cilia.
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Asteroidea: Madreporite on aboral surface. Grooved with ciliated epidermis. May
allow seawater into vascular system. Ampulla under madreporite connected to water vascular system and
hemal system. Stone canal connects ampulla to rest of system. Connects to ring canal. Ring canal leads to radial canals in each arm. Also has Polian vessicles
(maintain internal pressure) and Tiedemann’s bodies (produce coelomcytes).
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Radial canals lead to lateral canals which pass through pores in the skeletal plates and end in tube feet. Each tube foot has an ampulla on top
and a suckered muscular podium on bottom.
Tube feet used for locomotion, prey capture, adherence to substratum.
Terminal tubefeet are chemosensory.
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Tube feet move by combination of muscles and hydraulics.
Valve at lateral canal that shuts and isolates the tubefoot.
Ampulla contracts and pushes fluid into the tubefoot to extend it.
Sucker pressed on substratum and sticks with adhesive secretions. Longitudinal muscles contract to raise middle of sucker to create a
vacuum. Also shortens podium, forcing water back into ampulla. For release, longitudinal muscles relax, ampulla contracts and water
forced back into podium. Suction released.
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Ophiuroids: Madreporite on oral surface. Tudefeet don’t have suckers.
Flexible used for feeding.
Crinoids: Water vascular system entirely
coelomic fluid. No madreporite, many stony canals.
Radial canals extend up each arm. Suckerless podia on branches called
pinnules.
What do Echinoderms look like? Water vascular system
Echinoids: Madreporite on special plate around
aboral pole. Podia pass through holes in
ambulacral plates
Holothuroids: Madreporite internal and open to
coelom. Three rows of tube feet (trivium) on “ventral” surface, two rows (bivium) on “dorsal” surface.
How do Echinoderms support themselves and move? Support Calcareous endoskeleton with different degrees of calcification. Holothuroids have very muscular body walls.
How do Echinoderms support themselves and move? Movement
How do Echinoderms support themselves and move? Movement
Cucumbers crawl on podia of trivium or by muscular action of the body wall.
Sand dollars use spines to burrow in sand.
How do Echinoderms support themselves and move? Nervous system Decentralized without cerebral ganglia. Relatively simple receptors: chemoreceptors, statocysts, touch. Some brittle stars have sclerites that act as tiny lenses across their
dorsal surface and work together as one giant lens.
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? s
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Asteroids Most are predators and scavengers. Eversible portion of stomach
(cardiac stomach) extruded onto or into prey.
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Asteroids Mouth ---> cardiac stomach ---> pyloric stomach ---> pyloric ducts
---> pyloric cecae ---> intestine ---> anus
How do Echinoderms feed and digest?
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Echinoids Herbivores, suspension feeders, detritovores. Urchins have Aristotle’s lantern. Hard plates and muscles that
control protraction of five teeth. Teeth scrape algae off rocks and take
bites of macroalgae. Can excavate holes in rocks.
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Echinoids Digestive mouth system ---> esophagus out of Aristotle’s lantern --->
long intestines ---> rectum ---> anus.
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Holothuroids Suspension and deposit feeders. Extend mucus-covered buccal tentacles into water. Tentacles are
pushed into mouth one at a time. Mouth ---> esophagus ---> long intestines ---> rectum ---> anus.
How do Echinoderms feed and digest? Holothuroids Cuverian tubules - blind sticky tubes at base of respiratory tree.
Entangle predators. Evisceration.
How do Echinoderms maintain homeostasis? Circulation Internal transport by coeloms, water vascular system, and hemal
systems. Hemal system - array of canals and spaces enclosed within coelomic
channels called perihemal sinuses. Parallels water vascular system. Probably helps distribute respiratory gases and nutrients.
How do Echinoderms maintain homeostasis? Gas exchange Across podia and dermal gills (dermal
branchia). Countercurrent exchange.
How do Echinoderms maintain homeostasis? Gas exchange
How do Echinoderms maintain homeostasis? Gas exchange Holothuroids have respiratory trees. Water is actively pumped
by muscular hind end. Gases picked up by coelom and hemal system.
How do Echinoderms maintain homeostasis? Osmoregulation Osmoconformers. Waste is usually ammonia lost across podia and dermal
branchia.
How do Echinoderms reproduce and develop? Asexual reproduction Most capable of regenerating lost parts. Holothuroids
regenerate intestines and respiratory trees. Asteroids and ophiuroids regenerate lost arms and suckers.
How do Echinoderms reproduce and develop? Sexual reproduction Most gonochoristic. Gonads housed in genital sinuses. In classes with multiple
gonads, each has own gonopore in an interambulacral area.
How do Echinoderms reproduce and develop? Sexual reproduction Free spawning with indirect development to brooding with
direct development.
How do Echinoderms reproduce and develop? Sexual reproduction Isolecithal egg with small amount of yolk. Radial holoblastic cleavage ---> coeloblastula --->
coelogastrula by invagination ---> blastopore becomes anus ---> coelom formation by enterocoely ---> embryo becomes bilaterally symmetrical and develops into a larva.
Vitellaria of crinoid
Bipinnaria and brachiolaria of seastars
