What is embryonic development?
|
Changes that occur between the zygote stage and the muticellular organism
|
What is a zygote cell?
|
Diploid cell resulting from the union of two haploid gametes; 1st cell of 2nd generation
|
What is an embryo?
|
Young animal or plant while it still contained in a protective structure( e.g. seed coat, uterus)
|
What are the 2 key processes?
|
cleavage: cell division -single zygote divides (forming many cells from one) gastrulation- infolding of a ball of cells gives rise of 2 3 embryonic tissue layers |
What are the germ layers?
|
-ectoderm-gives rise to epidermis and nervous tissue-endoderm-gives rise to lining of digestive and respiratory system
|
If it only has 2 layers what is it called?
|
Diploblastic
|
Triploblastic with three layers have what?
|
Mesoderm-internal organs , heart stomach
|
Archenteron
|
-rise to digestive space(gut cavity)
|
Blastophore
|
Mouth or anus or both
|
When you have a gut cavity what can you do?
|
You can digest larger particles
|
What is so great about tissues?
|
Enables body organization
|
What is so great about the gut?
|
Enables extracellular digestion (digest larger particles)
|
What are the different symmetries?
|
asymmetrical-spongesbilateral symmetry-phalhelminthes- single axis that divides the body into two equal halves-usually has a headradial symmetry-cnidarians-cut along one axis through the center along a bunch of different planes and you get symmetrical -only works if you looking at it from the top and through center
|
What are some examples of the phylum cnidaria?
|
Jelly fish, sea anemones,hydrozoans
|
Describe some of the characteristics.
|
-diploblastic, carnivorous, both nervous and muscle tissues-mostly marine
