    Study Notes

    Animal Body Systems - Classifying Animals

    • Animal body plans are used to classify animals.
    • Body plans are considered the "blueprint" of cellular organization, describing how animals are built.
    • Animal body plans are influenced by embryonic development patterns (Protostomes vs. Deuterostomes), germ cell layers (Diploblasts vs. Triploblasts), body symmetry, and body cavity type.

    Summary of Animal Body Plans

    • Diagrams illustrate animal development from zygote to blastula and gastrula.
    • Different phyla are classified based on various features: acoelom, pseudocoelom, coelom (schizocoel, enterocoel).
    • Diploblastic animals have two germ layers (ectoderm and endoderm).
    • Triploblastic animals have three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm).

    Germ Layers

    • Ectoderm: outermost layer, forms external coverings and nervous systems.
    • Mesoderm: middle layer, forms muscles of body wall, most internal structures.
    • Endoderm: innermost layer, forms lining of gut.

    Animal Body Plans - Influencing Factors

    • Embryonic development pattern is categorized into Protostomes and Deuterostomes
    • Germ cell layers can be diploblastic or triploblastic.
    • Body symmetry can be radial or bilateral.
    • Body cavity type can be acoelomate, pseudocoelomate, or coelomate.

    Sexual Reproduction in Animals

    • Germ-line cells undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes.
    • Gametes fuse during fertilization to create a diploid zygote.
    • Asexual reproduction also occurs in some animals (e.g., budding, fragmentation, parthenogenesis).

    Zygote Cleavage

    • Zygote undergoes rapid cell cycles without significant growth.
    • Develops into a morula, a compact mass of cells.
    • Morula develops into a hollow sphere called a blastula, a single layer of cells.
    • Unique to animals
    • Protostomes and Deuterostomes have different cleavage patterns.

    Cleavage Patterns in Protostomes and Deuterostomes

    • Protostomes exhibit spiral cleavage (newly produced cells positioned between cells below them).
    • Cell's developmental path is determined before creation (determinant cleavage).
    • Deuterostomes exhibit radial cleavage (newly produced cells above and below existing cells).
    • Developmental fates of first few cells are not determined (indeterminate cleavage).

    Gastrulation

    • Gastrulation begins at the vegetal pole of the blastula.
    • Blastula invaginates and undergoes differentiation into two or three germ layers (ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm).
    • Germ layers give rise to tissues and organs.

    Polarity of Digestive System

    • Blastopore develops first, later another opening at the opposite end.
    • This second opening transforms the pouch-like gut into a digestive tube (mouth and anus).
    • Protostomes: blastopore becomes the mouth; anus develops later.
    • Deuterostomes: blastopore becomes the anus; mouth develops later.

    Origin of Mesoderm

    • Protostomes: Mesoderm forms near blastopore; body cavity forms by splitting (schizocoelom).
    • Deuterostomes: Mesoderm forms by outpocketings of archenteron (primitive gut); body cavity forms within outpocketings (enterocoelom).

    Summary of Embryonic Development Differences

    • Protostomes have spiral cleavage, determinate cell fate, mouth first, mesoderm originates near blastopore, schizocoelom.
    • Deuterostomes have radial cleavage, indeterminate cell fate, anus first, mesoderm originates from outpocketings, enterocoelom.

    Body Symmetry

    • Radial symmetry: divisible along any longitudinal plane through central axis; no left or right side.
    • Bilateral symmetry: divisible along one vertical plane into two mirror-image halves; distinct anterior and posterior ends.
    • Radial symmetry common in aquatic animals; bilateral symmetry common in terrestrial animals.

    Animals with Radial Symmetry

    • Diploblastic (exception: adult echinoderms).
    • Typically circular or tubular shape with mouth at one end.
    • Examples: cnidarians and ctenophores.

    Animals with Bilateral Symmetry

    • Triploblastic.
    • Specialized head region with feeding and sensory organs (cephalization).
    • Digestive tract with mouth and anus.
    • Examples: most animals.

    Segmentation

    • Repeated structures along anterior-posterior axis.
    • Seen in annelids, arthropods, and chordates.
    • Advantages: movement and specialization.

    Deuterostome Body Cavity (Coelom)

    • In bilaterally symmetrical animals, a body cavity (coelom) separates gut from body wall.
    • Fluid-filled cavity formed within the mesoderm.

    Protostome Body Cavities

    • Acoelomate: no body cavity (e.g., flatworms).
    • Pseudocoelomate: fluid-filled space between endoderm and mesoderm (e.g., roundworms).

    Physiological Processes

    • Follow universal laws of physics and chemistry.
    • Tightly regulated (homeostasis).

    Electrical Laws

    • Govern function of all cells, including excitable cells like neurons and muscles.

    • Communication and integration in animal body.
    • Focus on homeostasis and nervous systems.
