1.
Animals are: eukaryotic
cells lack cell walls
multicell
heterotrophs that ingest food
2.
Arthopods: Are characterized by their segmented bodies, jointed appendages, and by their exoskeleton
Examples-
Crustaceans: crab, lobster
Arachnids: spider, scorpion
Insects : butterfly, ant
3.
Cnidarians: These include jellyfish, Portuguese man-of war, hydras and corals
4.
Echinoderms (spiny invertebrates): The echinoderms are slow moving invertebrates which include sea urchins, starfish, sea stars and sea cucumbers.
Adaptations:
Endoskeleton
Water Vascular system
Tube feet
5.
Flatworms: small leaf-like or ribbon-like worms that are free-living or parasitic. Bilateral symmetry
6.
fluke (flatworm): parasitic, life cycle in multiple hosts. Blood fluke
7.
hookworm (roundworm): parasite, enters thru feet, travels to lungs. Host coughs and swallows eggs that hatch in intestine, then is excreted out.
8.
Invertebrates: Animals without a backbone, make up 95% of the animals on Earth. Most live in aquatic or moist environments
9.
medusa: umbrella-shaped (jellies)
10.
Mollusk 3 classes: Gastropods - "Stomach-footed" land snails, slugs
Bivalves - "2 shells" clams, oysters, mussels and scallops.
Cephalopods -squids, octopus
11.
Mollusks (soft bodied): This phyla includes snails, slugs, oysters, clams, octopuses and squids. Some mollusks have shells to protect them, while others don't.
Adaptations:
Mantle
Radula
Open Circulatory System
12.
pinworm (roundworm): parasite, enters by ingesting thru mouth. Grows in intestine, adult pinworms lay eggs around anus and causes itching. (yummy)
13.
planarians (flatworm): free-living, has eyespots to sense light, mouth for feeding and wastes.
14.
polyp: They have cylindrical bodies and tentacles to sting prey (hydra).
15.
Porifera (sponges): Sponges are the simplest animal. They are a few cell layers thick and sift their food from water.
16.
radial symmetry: animal that has body parts arranged like pieces of a pie.
17.
Roundworms (nematodes): small, cylindrical worms that free-living or parasitic. Complete digestive tract - mouth and anus
18.
Segmented worm examples: Earthworm - good for fishing and soil
Sandworms - live in ocean
Leeches - parasitic worm that suck blood.
19.
Segmented worms: -body is in segments. Phylum Annelida, which means "little rings." Free-living or parasitic
Adaptations:
coelom
closed circulatory system
20.
Sessile: Animals that are anchored in place.
21.
tapeworm (flatworm): parasitic, lives in intestines. Segments break off to pass on eggs. Humans-pigs-humans
22.
Vertebrates: Animals with backbones
