In Phylum Porifera how many species
8,500
Where do most porifera live
most in marine, some in freshwater
What symetry do most porifera have
radial symetry
What does radial symetry mean
it is round when viewed from above and can be cut in half in many planes and both halves are identicle
what are porifera
sponges
What are the functions of skeletal systems in animals
works with mucsles to create motion
protects internal organs
keeps us vertical and not on the ground
what is the simplest form of a skeleton
Hydraulic skeleton
who has hydraulic skeletons
Jelly fish, anemones, earthworms
What do hydroulic skeletons have in them
Store H2O in body and put it under pressure with muscles
why do hydraulic skeletons have H2O in them
it creates a stiff structure that muscles work against
SWhat is the second simplest form of skeleton
exoskeleton
what is the most complex form of skeleton
arthropod exoskeleton
How does a arthropod exoskeleton work
Muscles attach to the inner surface of the exoskeleton to create motion, often involving levers.
What is the skeleton of chordates made out of
bone or cartilage
what was the first peice of the skeleton to evolve
notochord
What is the notochord
rod of cartilage running length of body
what was the second peice to evolve in chordates skeleton
vertebrae replaced notochord
are vertebrae controlled all together or individually
each vertebrae could be controlled individually
what was the 3rd peice of the chordate skeleton to evolve
brain case
What is the brane case made out of
bone/cartilage
what does the brain case do
protects the brain
what was the 4th peice of the chordate skeleton to evolve
Jaws
what was the 5th peice of the chordate skeleton to evolve
paired fins
What did the jaws come from
came from skeletal support of gills
What did paried fins become
fins altered into limbs
Why are limbs commonly modified
to make locomotion efficient
