SOME ARIZONA INVERTEBRATE ANIMALSI. Phylum Mollusca = the mollusks – the clams, snail, slugs, ect. Represent the
second largest animal phyla with most living in a marine environment. A. Characterized by: 1. Muscular foot: is the organ of locomotion that leaves a trail of slime. 2. Mantle: this thin membranous covering secretes Ca++ deposits to form a shell. 3. Visceral mass: is the internal organs.

MOLLUSKS_ CLASS GASTROPODA “STOMACH FOOT”B. Class Gastropoda (“Stomach Foot”) Snails with a univalve shell or slugs with out a shell.1. Desert snails (such as in the genus Helix) are only active during
cool + moist season like the months of January+ February.2. During the hot summer, they seek protected sites, pull back into
their shell a+ secrete an impervious plug called an epiphragm.3. The shell and the epiphragm allow some oxygen + moisture to
pass through.4. Snails tolerate desiccation of 40-45% of its body water, For
humans, a loss of 10% body water results in nervous dysfunction and 18-20% is lethal.
5. Gastropods eat plants, using a rasp-like tongue known as a radula

CLAMSC. Class Pelecypoda (“spade foot”) Clams with bivalve shell of right + left halves. Not found on land, but in ponds, streams, and canals.

ARTHROPODSII. Phylum Arthopoda (“jointed Foot”)- is the largest animal phylum consisting of nearly 90% of all animal species.A. Characteristics 1. Bodies covered with a chitinous exoskeleton that is secreted by the epidermal cells. a. Is a multilayered structure consisting of chitin, protein, + wax. b. Functions include: 1. Protection- a suit of armor. 2. Reduction of water loss. 3. Framework for muscle attachment. c. Disadvantages: 1. Heavy in proportion to total body weight. 2. Must be removed (molting) making the arthropod vulnerable.

MORE CHARACTERISTICS2. Jointed appendages- necessary for movement + a lever system.3. Special senses are many and well developed. a. Propioceptors or position receptors. b. Chemoreceptors or chemical receptors. Pheromones are chemical used to attract members of the same species. c. Photoreceptors or light receptors. d. Mechanoreceptors or receptors sensitive to touch, air movement + vibrations.

MORE CHARACTERISTICS
4. Thermoregulation- heterotherms + ectotherms.5. Reproduction is mostly oviparous. a. Internal fertilization- an important land adaptation preventing the dehydration of gametes (egg + sperm). 1. Arachnids Male produces a spermatophore. 2. Spiders
