1 Introduction to the Animal Kingdom

2 Which of these is an “animal”?

3 Answer: They are all animals! Characteristics of Animals: Heterotrophic Motile(at least once Eukaryoticin lifetime) Multicellular Lack cell walls. 95% = invertebrates (do not have backbone) 5% = vertebrates (have a backbone)

4 Biology = study of life Physiology = Study of the functions of organs Anatomy = the structure of the organism/organs Zoology = study of animals

5 Animal Functions 1. Feeding: Ingesting Herbivore = eats plants Carnivore = eats animals Omnivore = eats plants and animals Detritivore = eats decaying organic material

6 Filter Feeders = aquatic animals that strain food from water Examples: whale shark, sponges

7 Parasitic = obtains all or part of nutrition from another organism(symbiotic relationship) Examples: roundworms, tapeworms, ticks, lice

8 2. Respiration: Take in O 2 and give off CO 2 Lungs or gills or through skin (diffusion)

9 3. Circulation: Very small animals rely on diffusion Larger animals have circulatory system

10 4. Excretion: Primary waste product is ammonia The kidney is the main organ of excretion in higher animals.

11 5. Response: Nervous System Stimulus → Response

12 6. Movement: How they move can vary (swim, crawl, fly, run, slither) *All move at least once during their lifetime.

13 What is the difference between: Quadrupedal & Bipedal Terrestrial & Aquatic Sessile & Motile

14 7. Reproduction: Most reproduce sexually = genetic diversity Many invertebrates can also reproduce asexually

15 Quick Check 1. A basking shark obtains its food by _________ _________ 2. An animal that eats plants and other animals is called a(n) __________________ 3. Any animal that lives on or in another animal and causes harm is called a _____________________________ 4. The study of the functions of organs is called ____________ 5. An animal that feeds on dead or decaying matter is called a(n) ___________________ 6. Animals can respire with lungs, gills, or _________________ 7. Sexual reproduction increases genetic _______________ 8. What is the main organ of excretion? ______________ 9. The study of animals is called _________________ 10. Responses occur as a result of a(n) ________________

16 What are the seven functions of living systems? 1. Feeding 2. ________________________ 3. Circulation 4. __________________________ 5. Response 6. Movement 7. __________________________

17 Body Symmetry - the body plan of an animal, how its parts are arranged Asymmetry - no pattern (sponges)

18 Radial Symmetry - shaped like a wheel (starfish, coral, anemone, hydra, jellyfish)

19 Jellyfish are animals with radial symmetry They are predators Some are venomous

20 Bilateral Symmetry - has a right and left side (humans, insects, cats, etc)

21 Identify the Symmetry

22 Cephalization - an anterior concentration of sense organs (to have a head). Evolved with bilateral symmetry Octopus – member of the class Cephalopoda (head-foot)

23 Body Sides anterior - toward the head posterior - toward the tail dorsal - back side ventral - belly side

24 Segmentation Animals have body segments, and/or specialization of tissue (even humans are segmented, look at the ribs and spine)

25 Trends in Animal Evolution Early Development Animals begin life as a zygote (fertilized egg)

26 The cells in the zygote divide to form the BLASTULA - a hollow ball of cells

27 The blastula pinches inward to form three GERM LAYERS

28 MOUTH FIRST ANUS FIRST Protostome = mouth develops first, mesoderm splits to form coelom. Mollusks, annelids, arthropods Dueterostome = anus develops first, mesoderm/coelom develops from pinching off. Echinoderms and chordates.

29 Body Plans Acoelomate: no fluid filled body cavity. Organs surrounded by solid tissue. Coelomate: True, fluid filled body cavity surrounding digestive system Psuedocoelomate: partial, fluid filled body cavity

30 Animal Kingdom Phyla Phylum Porifera – sponges Phylum Cnidaria – sea anemones,coral, jellyfish, & hydra

31 Phylum Platyhelminthes - flatworms Free-living Planarian Parasitic Tapeworm Lives in intestines Food contamination Lives in freshwater Can regenerate

32 Phylum Annelida – segmented worms Phylum Nematoda – roundworms

33 Phylum Mollusca – clams, squid, snails, slugs

34 Phylum Arthropoda – crustaceans, insects, spiders This is the largest phylum in the animal kingdom and contains the most number of species

35 Phylum Echinodermata - starfish

36 Phylum Chordata – includes all vertebrates
