This chapter explores the fundamental characteristics of animals, highlighting their multicellular eukaryotic nature, cell specialization, and heterotrophic lifestyle. It delves into the challenges and adaptations of animals in various environments, covering marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. Key topics include body symmetry, coelom types, and embryonic development (protostomes vs. deuterostomes). Special emphasis is placed on the anatomy and physiology of sponges, including their unique water flow system and cellular structure. This overview provides a foundational understanding of animal diversity and their ecological significance.

Characteristics of Most Animals • 1. multicellular eukaryotes • 2. cell specialization • (cells tissues organs) • 3. heterotrophs • 4. locomotion (sometime in lifecycle) • 5. nervous + muscle systems (stimuli) • 6. sexual reproduction • (large, nonmotile eggs; flagellated sperm)
Marine Environments • Advantages • Buoyancy – support • Temperature – stable • Fluid + salt balance easily maintained • Challenges • Water movement/currents • Adapt: • Strong swimmer – squid, fish, mammals • Sessile • Burrow in sand/silt • Small body size plankton (food supply around as tossed)
Other environments - problems • Fresh water • Water hypotonic to animal fluids • Osmoregulation - pump out water, keep salts (ATP) • Less constant • Less food • Oxygen and temp. vary • Turbidity + water volume change
Land • Desiccation • Adapt: body covering; respiratory surface deep within animal • Reproduction (desiccation) • Adapt: internal fertilization; shells on eggs; embryo in mom • Temperature extremes
Body Symmetry • 2 types • Radial • wheel or cylinder form • Spokes from central axis • Cnidarians – jellyfish, sea anemones • Echinoderms – sea stars • Bilateral • Right and left halves – mirror images
Types of Body Cavities • Coelom = fluid-filled space between body wall and digestive tube • Acoelomate • No body cavity • Pseudocoelomate • Body cavity, not lined with mesoderm • Coelomate • Body cavity completely lined

2 Main Groups of Coelomates • Protostomes • “first, the mouth” • Mollusks, annelids, arthropods • Deuterostomes • “second, the mouth” • Echinoderms, chordates
Protostomes Spiral Deuterostomes radial Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesCleavage

Protostomes “determinate” cleavage Fixed early Can only become certain cell types Deuterostomes “indeterminate” cleavage Can adapt to become another cell type Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesDevelopmental Fate of the Embryo

Folds of archenteron form coelom.
Protostomes Develops into the mouth Deuterostomes Develops into the anus Later, 2nd opening makes mouth Protostomes vs. DeuterostomesBlastopore = (opening from outside to gut)

3 main classes of sponges • Calcarea • Chalky, calcium carbonate spikes (spicules) • Hexactinellida (glass sponges) • 6-rayed spicules with silica • Demospongiae • Variable • Fibrous protein = spongin • Silica • OR spongin + silica

Sponge Anatomy • Spongocoel • Central cavity – water flows • Ostia • Tiny pores, water enters • Osculum • Open end, water exits • Epidermal cells • Outer layer, line canals
Sponge Anatomy • Canals • SA – food capture • Porocytes • Tube like cells – form pores • Regulate diameter by contracting • Collar cells
Sponge Anatomy • Collar cells • Inner layer • Create water current, bring food and water to cells, carries away waste and CO2 • Trap and phagocytize food • Tiny collar at base of flagellum
Sponge Anatomy • Mesohyl • Gelatin-like layer • Between inner and outer layers of sponge body • Amoebocytes • In mesohyl • Digestion, food transport, secrete spicules
Sponge Feeding • Suspension feeders • Trap + eat whatever food the water brings • Water circulates in body • Food trapped on sticky collars of choanocytes • Food digested in collar or amoeboid cell • Undigested – out to water through osculum
Response to Stimuli • No special nerve cells – can’t react as a whole • Individual cells can respond
Reproduction of sponges • Asexual • Fragment or bud • Sexual • Hermaphrodite – egg + sperm • Some amoeboid cells become sperm, some eggs • Eggs/sperm made at different times cross fertilize • Sperm released into water, taken in by other sponges of same species • Fertilization and early dev. In mesohyl • Embryo moves to spongocoel, leaves with water • Swims, attaches to solid object sessile
Response in Cnidarians • Nerve nets • Nerve cells that connect sensory cells in body wall to contractile + gland cells • Cells contacted, entire body responds – crunches in
Feeding in Cnidarians (hydra) • Paralyze prey with Nematocysts • Nematocysts • Stinging cells (“thread capsules”) • In cnidocytes • Stimulated – release coiled, hollow thread • Sticky OR long and coil around prey OR barbs/spines • Prey pushed into mouth • GV cavity – digestion • Body motion helps circulate contents
Reproduction in Cnidarians • Asexual • Budding – good conditions • Colony – buds remain on parent • Sexual • Fall or stagnant water • Become males and females • Female – ovary – single egg • Male – testis - sperm • Zygote – may become covered with shell for winter
