Transcription de la présentation

  1. MOLLUSKS: • Section 27 – 1 • Slugs, snails, and animal that once lived in shells in the ocean or on the beach. • Phylum Mollusca

  2. Oysters and mussels live firmly attached to the ocean floor or to the bases of docks or wooden boats. • Squid and the octopus swim freely

  3. 100 000 species • Some have shells • Bilateral symmetry • True coelom • Two body openings • Muscular “foot” for movement

  4. How mollusks obtain food: • Radula: located within the mouth of a mollusk, is a tongue-like organ with rows of teeth. • The radula is used to drill, scrape, grate or cut food.

  5. Reproduction in Mollusks: • Most have separate sexes and reproduce sexually. • Eggs and sperm are released at the same time into the water where external fertilization takes place.

  6. Larval stages: • Larval stages of all mollusks are similar.

  7. Nervous Control in Mollusks: • Simple nervous system with a brain and associated nerves that coordinate movement and behavior.

  8. Circulation in Mollusks: • Well-developed circulatory system with a three-chambered heart. • Open circulatory: blood is pumped through vessels and into open spaces surrounding organs.

  9. Some mollusks (such as the octopus) has a closed circulatory system.

  10. Respiration in Mollusks: • Most mollusks have respiratory structures called gills. • Gills increase the surface area through which gases can diffuse. They are an extension of the mantle.

  11. Excretion in Mollusks: • Oldest known animals to have evolved excretory structures called nephridia • Nephridia: organs that remove metabolic wastes from an animal’s body.

  12. Diversity of Mollusks: • Seven classes • Gastropoda • Bivalvia

  13. Gastropods: • One-shelled mollusks • Largest class • Stomach-footed (named for the way that the large foot is positioned under the body)

  14. May be found in freshwater, saltwater, or moist terrestrial environments.

  15. Slugs: • No shell • Body is protected by a thick layer of mucus. • Nudibranchs: colorful sea slugs

  16. Bivalves: • Two-shelled mollusks • Clams, oysters and scallops • Figure 27-7 • Most are marine, but a few a freshwater. • Range in size from 1 mm to 1.5 meters

  17. A ligament like a hinge connects the two shells. • Filter feeders • Cilia beat to draw water into an incurrent siphon.

  18. The cilia also act as a sorting device.

  19. Cephalopods: • Head-footed mollusks • All marine

  20. The only cephalopod with a shell is the chambered nautilus. • The cuttlefish has a reduced internal shell. • Very complex structures • .

  21. The foot has evolved into structures with hooks, suckers or adhesive structures. • The tentacles bring the prey to the mouth where it is bitten by the beak-like jaw. • The food is then pulled into the mouth by the radula. • Figure 27-8

  22. Possess siphons that expel water. • By expelling water forcefully, these mollusks can move quickly by jet propulsion. • Squids can attain speeds of 20 meters per second with this method. • They also expel “ink” to confuse and escape predators.
