Bell Ringer
What is the function of the chloroplast?
Objectives• Identify shared characteristics in animals
• Distinguish radial and bilateral symmetry
• Summarize the importance of a body cavity in animals
• Identify how scientists determine evolutionary relationships between animals
Characteristics of AnimalsHeterotrophy
MobilityMulticellularity
DiploidySexual reproductionBlastula Formation
Tissue
HeterotrophyAll animals are heterotrophsAnimals cannot make their own food
MobilityAnimals have the ability to perform rapid,
complex movementsAnimals move by using muscle cells
Swim, walk, crawl, run, fly
MulticellularityAll animals have more than one cell
DiploidyDiploidy-two copies of each chromosomes
All animals have two copies of each chromosome. One copy from mom and one from dad.
Sexual ReproductionAlmost all animals reproduce sexually by
producing gametes.Sperm cells of all animals have a flagella and
they are highly mobile.
Blastula FormationBlastula- a hollow ball of cells
Cells within the blastula eventually develop into three distinct layers of cells
EctodermEndodermMesoderm
Blastula
• Ectoderm- Outer layer of skin, nervous system, sense organs
• Endoderm- Lining of digestive tract, respiratory, system, digestive organs, urinary bladder
• Mesoderm- Most of the skeleton, muscles, circulatory system, reproductive organs
TissuesThe cells of all animals except sponges are
organized into structural and functional units called tissues
Tissues- groups of cells with a common structure that work together to perform a certain function
Bell RingerWhat are the three distinct cellular layers that the Blastula forms into?
Body SymmetryAll animals have their own Body Plan.
Different types of Body PlansAsymmetryRadial SymmetryBilateral Symmetry
AsymmetryAsymmetry- irregular in shape.
Asymmetry is the simplest body plan in the animal KingdomExample: Sponges
Asymmetry
Radial SymmetryRadial Symmetry- Body parts arranged
around a central axis.
Most animals that exhibit radial symmetry are aquatic.Example: Starfish or Sea Anemone
Radial Symmetry
Bilateral SymmetryBilateral Symmetry-A body design in
which there are distinct right and left halves.In Bilateral Symmetry there are
Dorsal Surfaces(Top) Ventral Surface(Bottom) Anterior End(Front) Posterior End(Back)
Bilateral Symmetry
Bell RingerWhat are the three different types of symmetries?
CephalizationMost bilaterally symmetrical animals have
evolved an anterior concentration of sensory structures and nerves.
This is called Cephalization
Animals with cephalic ends are often active and mobile.
Cephalization
Internal Body CavityBilaterally Symmetrical Animals have three
basic internal body plans
Acoelomates Pseudocoelomates
Coelomates
Coelom-Body cavity; a fluid filled space found between the body wall and the digestive tract.
AcoelomateAceolomate-No Body cavity
PseudocoelomatePseudocoelomate-A body cavity that
is located between the mesoderm and endoderm.
CoelomateCoelomate-Have a body cavity located entirely within the mesoderm. Provides an internal space where
mesoderm and endoderm can be in contact during embryonic development.
This helped complex organs evolve, why?
CoelomateEarthworms are coelomates
True coelom wraps around the digestive tract to protect organs.
Provides are firm base for animals muscles to push against.
Body SegmentationSegmented animals are composed of
repeating segments.
ChallengeEarth worms are segmented animals that can
live without certain segments, why do you think that is?
Phylogenetic TreeKingdom Animalia contains 35 divions
PhylaScientists use a Phylogenetic tree to visualize
classificationThe animal kingdom can then be divided into
vertebrates and non-vertebrates
