1
Asymmetry Animals have different patterns of symmetry, the arrangement of body parts around a central axis Asymmetry – no general body plan Example: Sponges 1
2
Radial Symmetry Radial symmetry – body can be divided into equal parts around a central axis Example: starfish, jellyfish Oral = side containing the mouth Starfish Morro Bay, CA 2
3
Bilateral Symmetry Bilateral symmetry – body can be divided along one plane of symmetry into two mirror halves Example: humans, crocodiles, crayfish 3
4
Compare the Difference
Symmetrical Compare the Difference versus no symmetry 4
5
Ventral – underside (belly) Dorsal – back (top side)
Bilaterally symmetrical animals can be divided into the following planes: Anterior – front end Posterior – back end Ventral – underside (belly) Dorsal – back (top side) Dorsal Anterior Posterior Ventral 5
6
Cephalization Bilaterally symmetrical animals also have cephalization, which is the concentration of nerve and sensory tissue at the anterior end of the organism 6 6

CNS – Central Nervous System

Note the formation of the embryonic tissue layers: endoderm, mesoderm, ectoderm

Animals have different body plans based on the development of body cavities
Acoelomate Pseudocoelomate Eucoelomate 10
11
Body Cavities Acoelomate – animal that lacks a body cavity
Pseudocoelomate – animal that has a cavity between the mesoderm and endoderm (Not a true body cavity.. thus pseudo) 11
12
Body Cavities Coelomate / Eucoelomate – animal that has a cavity that develops within the mesoderm ( a true coelom/body cavity) 12
13
Animalia One main distinction between the phyla is the presence of a notochord, which can develop into a vertebral column (backbone) If animals do NOT possess a backbone, they are invertebrates, and if they do possess a backbone, they are called vertebrates Vertebrate Invertebrate 13
14
Porifera Invertebrate Animals The following phyla will be discussed in more detail in class: Phylum Porifera Phylum Cnidaria Phylum Platyhelminthes Phylum Nematoda Cnidaria Nomura Jellyfish Nematoda Platyhelminthes 14
