Animals • Heterotrophic • Multi-cellular • Move at some point • No cell walls • Mostly reproduce sexually • Rapidly respond to external stimuli
Most animals have tissues • Tissues are groups of similar cells that carry out a specific function (e.g., muscle) • Sponges are the only modern-day animals that lack tissues
Symmetry • Animals with tissues exhibit either radial or bilateral symmetry Bilateral symmetry Radial symmetry Asymmetry http://www.misterteacher.com/orange%20and%20black%20butterfly.jpg http://www.hope.edu/academic/art/past/VanderBurgh/mapleave.rose2.jpg http://daphne.palomar.edu/design/asymm/jd01asym.jpg
Symmetry • Radial symmetrical animals have two embryonic tissue (germ) layers • Ectoderm, which is an outer layer that covers the body, lines its inner cavities, and forms the nervous system • Endoderm, which is an inner layer that lines most hollow organs • Bilaterally symmetrical animals have three embryonic tissue (germ) layers • A layer of mesoderm between the ectoderm and endoderm forms muscles, and the circulatory and skeletal systems
Bilateral Symmetry • Bilaterally symmetrical animals have heads • Exhibit cephalization, the concentration of sensory organs and a brain in a well-defined head, with definite anterior (head) and posterior (which may feature a tail) regions
Body Symmetry and Cephalization central axis anterior plane of symmetry plane of symmetry posterior (a) Radial symmetry (b) Bilateral symmetry Fig. 23-2
Bilateral Symmetry • Most bilateral animals have body cavities • Fluid-filled cavities between the digestive tube and the outer body wall • Many functions • Can act as a skeleton, providing support for the body and a framework against which muscles can act • Can form a protective buffer between the internal organs and the outside world • Can allow organs to move independently of the body wall
Major Animal Phyla • Animals probably originated from ancestral colonial protists • Present day biologists recognize about 27 phyla of animals • Most animals are invertebrates • Less than 3% of all known animals are vertebrates
Animals • Can be invertebrates or vertebrates • What’s the difference? Invertebrates vs. Vertebrates * No vertebral column * Vertebral column * Often have exoskeletons * Endoskeletons
