BASAL METAZOANS. A body plan, baupläne , ground plan, ground pattern , or bodyplan , is "an assemblage of morphological features shared among many members of a phylum-level group". Bauplan (pl. Baupläne ) The generalized body plan of an archetypal member of a major taxon. Look at 4 groups.

A body plan, baupläne, ground plan, ground pattern, or bodyplan, is "an assemblage of morphological features shared among many members of a phylum-level group" Bauplan (pl. Baupläne) The generalized body plan of an archetypal member of a major taxon.
Look at 4 groups 1. Placozoa 2. Cnidaria 3. Ctenophora 4. Platyhelminthes
CNIDARIA ANTHOZOA HYDROZOA SCYPHOZOA CUBOZOA
Diploblasty Ectoderm Mesoglea Gastroderm
CNIDARIA Feeding
CNIDARIA - EMBRYOLOGY Radial and holoblastic cleavage Stereogastrula
CNIDARIA – PLANULA LARVA Ectoderm Endoderm
CTENOPHORA Statocyst Anal pore Tentacle Stomadeum Tentacle sheath Meridional canal Pharynx Mouth
CTENOPHORA TENTACLE Muscle fibres
CTENOPHORA – SUPPORT & LOCOMOTION Support - elastic mesenchyme Ctenophora video
CTENOPHORA – SUPPORT & LOCOMOTION Locomotion - Comb rows Ctenophora video
CTENOPHORE - STATOLITHS - Balancing organ
CTENOPHORA – REPRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT 1. Form blastomeres – meridional cleavage 5. Macromeres invaginate (gastrulation) -micromeres become ectoderm -macromeres become endoderm 2. Third division – 8 macromeres 3. Fourth division – latitudinal and unequal - micromeres 6. Just before gastrulation – - Produce additional micromeres on oral side – invaginate to form stomatodeum 4. Micromeres divide and spread over aboral pole and macromeres
Cleavage in Beroe Cleavage in Pleurobranchia
COMPARISON OF CNIDARIA AND CTENOPHORE CNIDARIA CTENOPHORA Diploblastic with acellularmesoglea Diploblastic (triploblastic?) with cellular mesenchyme Radial symmetry Biradial symmetry ; oral/aboral axes Nematocysts Colloblasts Gastrovascular body cavity Gastrovascular body cavity Nerve net More specialized nerve net Musculature – extensions of epithelial cells Musculature – from mesenchyme cells Alternation of generations No alternation of generations Planula larva Cydippid larva
PLATYHELMINTHES Who are they? Turbellaria (flatworms) Trematoda (flukes) Monogenea (flukes) Cestoda (tapeworms
PLATYHELMINTHES Common trends 1. Triploblastic acoelomates 2. Cephalization and central nervous system 3. Mesoderm – fibrous and muscular mesenchyme 4. Osmoregulatory structure - protonephridia 5. Elaborate reproductive systems
PLATYHELMINTHES Limiting factors l. Lack of efficient circulatory system 2. Lack of gas exchange system
TRIPLOBLASTY Ectoderm Mesoderm Endoderm
