Cnidaria
- Diploblastic
- Mesoglia (jelly)
- Gastrovascular cavity for digestion
- Radial symmetry
- Oral/Aboral surfaces
- Medusa
- Polyp
Cnidocyte
Specialized epithelial cell giving group its name
- Made of nematocyst
- Operculum - where bob comes out
- Chidocil - trigger
Cnidaria classes
Hydrozoa - Hydroid
Scyphozoa - Crown jellyfish
Anthozoa - Sea anemone
Cubozoa- box jellyfish
Obelia
colonia hydra
- stalk, feeding polyp with tentacles
- Reproductive polyp
- Medusa bud will come off and form medusite and then a new organism
Oral and aboral surfaces

Gastrovascular cavity
digestion and circulation of nutrients
Mesoglia
hydro-static skeleton in jellyfish
Endoderm
forms lining of digestive tract
Ectoderm
most exterior layer
Phylum Platyhelminthes
- Triploblastic
- Acelomate
- Organ level organization
- Four classes
Classes
Turbellaria, Termatoda, Cestoda, Monosenea
Turbellaria
- free-living flatworms
- Digestive system
- Reproductive system
- Eyes
Trematoda
Fluke (flatworm)
Cestoda
Tapeworm
- Scolex
- Proglottids
Monosenea
Parasites
Three types proglottids
Immature, mature - gives functions to egg, gravid - ripe
Hold fast structures
hooks, suckers, rostellum
Regions of cestode
holdfast, neck, segments
Syncytial epidermis
peripheral layer of continuous cytoplasm connected to underlying nucleated cell bodies by small cytoplasmic bridges
Hosts in life cycle
Blah
Osteon system
functional unit of compact bone
Nematoda
- Round worm
- No septa
- Pseudocoelomate
- Sexually dimorphic
- Membrane bound cuticle
- Ecdysis- shed skin and get new
- Longitudinal muscles to move
- Complete digestive tract
- Bilaterally symmetrical
Sexual dimorphism
Differences in physical characteristics between males and females of the same species.
Phylum Mollusca
- Head-foot animal
- Triploblastic
- Bilateral symmetry
- Coelomate
- Muscular foot
- Visceral mass
Phylum Annelida
- Bilateral symmetry
- Called segmented worm
- Classified based on septa, setae, and appearance of clithium
- Mucus
- Acephalic
- Partition coelom
Phylum Chordata
oral cirri - filter feeding
notochord - skeletal support
dorsal nerve chord - nerves in body
dorsal fin - movement
gill slits - outflow of water, food and and respiration
Skeletal system function
- Support
- Protection
- Movement
- Mineral homeostasis
- Blood-cell production
- Triglyceride storage
Osteoblasts
bone forming cells
Osteoclasts
bone-destroying cells
Osteocytes
mature bone cells
Bone types
- Sensanoid
- Long
- Short
- Flat
- irregular
Sensanoid bone
Patella
Long
Femur
Short
Carpal
Irregular
vertebrae
Flat
Sternum
Joint types
fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial, fused
Synovial joint
- membrane sac with synovial fluid
- provides full range of motion between two bones
Types of synovial joints
Ball and socket, saddle, hinge, gliding, pivot
Ball and socket
Femur into ox cosa
Saddle joint
Concave surface and convex surface
Hinge
Motion in one place
Gliding
Limited motion of sliding
Pivot
head moving - in one direction but rotational
Cartliginious
Fibrocartilage connects neighboring bones
- Ex. Pubic symphysis
Fused
One bone is fused to another
Ex. skull bones
Fibrous
Sheet of connective tissue between neighboring bones
Ex. Tibia and fibula and most skull bones
Tendons
Connect bone to muscle
Bursa
Fluid filled sac which acts as cushion
Ligament
Bone to bone
Hyaline Cartlidge
- Joint cartilage
- Contain achual
Achual
space containing bone, choanocytes, or osteocytes in bone
White fibrous tissue
Fibroblasts
Collagen
Fibroblasts
- generate collagen
Collagen
Main component of connective tissue
