Muscular Foot (locomotion), Visceral Mass (Organ Housing), Mantle (Shell Section), Mantle Cavity ( Respiration), Radula (Feeding)

21
New cards

Which of the following accurately describes the major evolutionary developments first seen in Phylum Annelids and Phylum Mollusca?

Annelids: True body segmentation, Mollusks: Mantle, Visceral Mass, Foot

22

Correct sorting of Phylum: Roundworms, Ribbon worms, C. Elegons, Earthworms, and Leeches. Which option has the correct classifications?

Phylum Nematoda:Roundworms and C. elegons, Phylum Nemertea: Ribbon Worms, Phylum Annelida: Earthworms and Leeches

23
New cards

Which of the following lists of animals accurately represent the diveristy of the Phylum Mollusca?

Garden Snails, Giant Clams, and Common Octopuses

24
New cards

Worm-like organism that is triploblastic/bilateral symmetry/ Which combination of features belongs to Phylum Nemertea rather than Nematoda?

The presence of a closed circulatory system and an eversible proboscis

25
New cards

Triploblastic,eucoelomate protosome, unsegmented. Which morphological features would identify with Phylum Mollusca?

A muscular foot, a visceral mass containing internal organs, and a mantle that may secrete a calcium carbonate shell

26
New cards

Triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical worm in a damp terrestrial habitat. Which would be classified as a member of Phylum Annelida?

A segumented body plan, a true coelom, protostome development, a closed circulatory system

27
New cards

Which of the following best summarizes the anatomical and physiological systems of a typical nematode?

A complete digestive system, a collagen and chitin-rich cuticle acting as an exoskeleton. nervous system consisting of a head ganglion and 4 nerve cords

28
New cards

What is the primary difference between an open and a closed circulatory system, which configuration is found in Phylum Mollusca?

Open Systems allow blood to flow freely in the body cavity, most mollusks and open, while cephalopods are the exception with a closed system

29
