3. Flatworms Are soft, flattened worms that have tissues and internal organ systems. The simplest animals to have three embryonic germ layers, bilateral symmetry, and cephalization Three embryonic layers include: ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm

6. Flatworms Form and function FFeeding Free living flatworms feed on tiny aquatic animals or they can be scavengers and feed on recently dead animals RRespiration, Circulation, and Excretion Do not need circulatory system because their body is thin and flat They rely on diffusion to transport oxygen and nutrients to their internal tissues and to remove carbon dioxide and other waste. RResponse Head encloses several ganglia or groups of nerve cells Eyespot – group of cells that can detect changes in the amount of light in their environment.

7. Movement MMove two ways Cilia – helps them glide through the water and over the bottom of a stream or pond. Muscle cells – twist and turn to react to environmental stimuli. Reproduction RReproduce sexually and asexually (Sexually) Hermaphrodite – an individual that has both male and female reproductive organs. (Asexually) Fission – organism splits in two and each half grows new parts to become a new organism Flatworms

8. 3 Groups of Flatworms Turbellarians  Free living  Live in marine or fresh water under stones, shells, sand, or mud Flukes  Parasitic  Infect organs of their host  Live in skin, mouth, gills, or other outside parts of the host. Tapeworms  Long, flat, parasitic  Adapt to life inside the intestines of their host where food is absorbed through their body walls.  They have no digestive tract

9. Roundworms Unsegmented worms that have psedocoeloms and digestive systems with two openings – a mouth and an anus.

10. Roundworms Form and function  Feeding Use grasping mouthparts and spines to catch and eat other small animals. Some eat algae, fungi, or pieces of decaying organic matter  Respiration, Circulation, and Excretion Exchange gases and excrete metabolic waste through their body walls. They rely on diffusion to carry nutrients and waste through their body.  Response Several ganglia or groups of nerve cells Nerves that extend from the ganglia in the head and run the length of the body. Sense organs that detect chemicals given off by prey or hosts.

11. Movement  Muscles that extend the length of their body Aquatic – contract muscles to move like snakes Soil dwelling – push their way through soil by thrashing around. Reproduction  Reproduce sexually Have separate sexes – either male or female Use internal fertilization Roundworms

12. Pain and suffering in humans 4 human disease 4 human disease 1. Trichinosis causing worms  Adult worm live and mate in the intestines of the host including humans, pigs, and other mammals. 2. Filarial worms  Found in tropical regions of Asia  Threadlike worms that live in blood or lymph vessels of birds and mammals  Transmitted through biting insects (mosquitoes)

13. Pain and suffering in humans 3. Ascarid worms  Found in humans and other vertebrate animals  Causes malnutrition in more than 1 million people  Absorbs digested food from the host’s small intestine.  Spreads by eating vegetables or other foods that are not washed properly. 4. Hookworms  Eggs hatch outside the body and develop in soil  Enters through an unprotected foot  Sucks the host’s blood causing weakness and poor growth.

14. How are the eggs released from the body? How do the worms get back into the host (dogs)? Through its feces Dog ingest the larva/egg or by eating the transport host

15. Eating undercooked meat containing larval cysts Elephantiasis Hookworms Worms attach to intestinal wall and suck blood, causing weakness and poor growth

16. Annelids Worms with segmented bodies Have a true coelom that is lined with tissue derived from mesoderm.

17. Annelids Form and function  Feeding Uses a pharynx that is covered with sticky mucus Pharynx holds two or more sharp jaws Feed on decaying vegetation  Respiration Aquatic – use gills to breathe Land dwelling – breathe through their moist skin  Circulation Have a closed circulatory system – blood is contained within a network of blood vessels

18. Movement  Move by alternately contracting two sets of muscles Longitudinal muscles – run from the front of the worm to the rear and can contract to make the worm shorter and fatter. Circular muscles – wrap around each body segment and can contract to make the worm longer and thinner. Reproduction  Reproduce sexually Fertilization takes place in the clitellum – band of thickened specialized segments, secretes a mucus ring into which eggs and sperm are released. Annelids

19. Groups of Annelids Oligochaetes CContains earthworms and their relatives SStreamlined bodies LLive in soil or fresh water EEarthworm castings are a mixture of sand, clay, and undigested food that an earthworm expels from its anus. Leeches PParasites that suck blood and body fluids of their host. CCan be used to treat medical conditions Polychaetes MMarine annelids that have paired, paddlelike appendages tipped with setae. LLive in cracks and crevices in coral reefs, in sand, mud, and piles of rocks.

21. Mollusks  Soft bodied animals that usually have an internal and external shell.  Include:  Snails  Slugs  Clams  Squids  Octopus

22. Mollusks Label: A.__________________ B.__________________ C.__________________ D. _________________ Have a larval stage called trochophore.

23. Soft bodies

24. Mollusks Form and function  Body Plan Has four parts  Foot - flat structures for crawling, spade-shaped structures for burrowing and tentacles for capturing prey.  Mantle – thin layer of tissue that covers most its body  Shell – made of glands in the mantle that secrete calcium carbonate.  Visceral Mass – beneath the mantle, consists of the internal organs.

25. Mollusks  Feeding Snails and slugs use a radula – tongue like structure to which hundreds of tiny teeth are attached.  Respiration Aquatic – use gills to breathe Land dwelling – breathe using a mantle cavity that has a large surface area lined with blood vessels.  Circulation Have a open and closed circulatory system Open circulatory system – blood is pumped through vessels by a simple heart. Octopi and squid have a closed circulatory system

26. Movement  Several methods Snails – secrete mucus along the base of the foot and move over surfaces using a rippling motion of the foot. Octopi draws water into the mantle cavity and then forces the water out through a siphon – a tubelike structure through which water enters and leaves the body. Reproduction  Reproduce sexually Fertilization takes place in the clitellum – band of thickened specialized segments, secretes a mucus ring into which eggs and sperm are released. Roundworms

27. Groups of Mollusks Gastropods  Shell less or single shelled that move by using a muscular foot located on the ventral side. Ex:Snail Bivalves  Two shells that are held together by one or two powerful muscles. Ex: Clams and oysters Cephalopods  Soft-bodied; head is attached to a single foot. The foot is divided into tentacles or arms. Ex: Octopus and squids

30. Just Slinking or Wriggling in the Rain Have you ever noticed that after a spring rain, earthworms come out of the soil and appear on driveways, in puddles, and on sidewalks? Why does this happen? Section 27-3 1. An earthworm breathes through its skin. If its skin dries out, it cannot breathe. Why would an earthworm be more likely to “surface” during the rain than at other times?  The rain keeps the skin of the earthworm moist. At other times, the earthworm is likely to dry out and suffocate. 2. What types of weather conditions might be fatal for an earthworm? Hot and dry weather is fatal for an earthworm because its skin dries out quickly.
