Animal Diversity
• Key features of animals
• Adaptations to land• Anatomical features
of the evolutionary tree
• Major animal phyla
Squid-- Invertebrate
-
Kingdom Animalia

Key Features of Animal
Hippotamus amphibius
• Multicellular• Heterotrophic• Sexual reproduction• Lack a cell wall• Motile (during some
part of their life cycle)• Respond to stimuli
rapidly
-
Phylogeny
-
Animal Diversity
• Arose in Pre-Cambrian era
• ~1 billion years ago• Fossils, 610-540
million years ago• Invertebrates• Major body plans
formed at Cambrian period
-
Major Body plans
• Tissues vs no tissues• Symmetry• Body cavity• Embryo development• Vertebrate

Major Animal Phyla
-
Major Animal Phyla
• Phylum Porifera• Sponges• Lack tissues and
organs• Colony properties
-
Diversity of sponges
-
Cnidarians
• Jellyfish• Sea anemones• Corals• Two forms: polyps
and medusa• Radial symmetry• Two tissue layers• Nerve net
-
Cnidarian diversity
-
Platyhelminthes
• Flatworms• Bilateral symmetry• Cephalization (head)• Organs and tissues
-
Tapeworm
-
Nematoda
• Roundworms• False body cavity• Lack circulatory
system
-
Annelida
• Segmented worms• Hydrostatic skeleton• Closed circulatory
system• True body cavity
-
Earthworms
-
Mollusca
• Mantle: extension of the body wall
• Hemocoel• Open circulatory
system
-
Diversity of mollusks: gastropod, bivalve
-
Cephalopod Mollusks
-
Arthropods
• Largest group• Exoskeleton• Chitin• Molting• Compound eye • Flying invertebrates

Echinoderms
• Endoskeleton• Bilateral symmetry in larva
