  1. Marine Arthropods Kumi, Kylee, Sierra

  2. Symmetry • bilateral symmetry • Specialized cells, tissues, organs • Three germ layers • True coelom body cavity • Embryological development is protostome • Segmentation of jointed appendages • Cephalization

  3. Feeding • Groups based on what they eat: shredders, predators, herbivores and fungal feeders. • Shredders eat bacteria and fungi on plants. • Predators eat other bugs. • Herbivores eat plants, particularly roots. • Fungal feeders eat fungi and bacteria.

  4. Circulation • Diffusion: • open circulatory system (blood is pumped by the heart and bathes the internal organs. • internal cavity is a hemocoel, (holds internal organs)

  5. Excretion • Uses ammonia to excrete waste • Ammonia is toxic so it needs to be watered down • Excreted through membrane • Flame cells remove the waste from the cell and filters it • Solid waste through the anus • Nephridia absorb useful metabolites before excretion of waste. • Metabolic waste through the malpighian tubes (helps absorb waste)

  6. Response • Ganglia: • Specialized sensory nerve cells: • Nervous system: • Adaptations: Segmented bodies, metamorphosis

  7. Movement • Sessile: • Cilia and muscle cells: • Muscle cells(length of bodies) contract to move: • Longitudinal Muscles: • Circular Muscles: • Uses a siphon to propel themselves forward: • Covered in exoskeleton made of chitin which is staged by metamorphosis • Moulting which is shedding their exoskeleton

  8. Reproduction • Can produce asexually and sexually • Done externally in water • Pathogenesis occurs • Unfertilized egg develops in arthropod https://www.shapeoflife.org/video/marine-arthropods-successful-design

  9. Respiration • Diffusion: • GIlls: they usually have gills • Tracheal tubes: yes they have a trachea, made up of the three parts: head, thorax, and abdomen. • Spiracles: In ganoid fishes a pair of spiracles, derived from the gills, is used as a water passageway during respiration, the nasal opening of whales are also spiracles.

  10. Phylum: Arthropoda • Crustacea: Lobsters, crabs, crayfish etc... • Arachnida: Ticks, mites, scorpions, etc... • Chilopoda: Centipedes • Diplopoda: Millipedes, • Insecta: butterfly’s, beetles, dragonflies, etc..
