  1. Mae Gallego 9A Bivalves and Gastropods

  2. Kingdom: Animalia • G. Phyla: Molusca • i.)Sub-phyla: Gastropods/Bivalves

  3. FromancientGreek Prefixγαστήρ gastr-stomach Sufixπούς pod-foot 325,000 speciescurrentlyexisting -only 85 thousandhaveacceptednames Gastropoda

  4. Haveshell Univalves Tortedbody Anus and head are together Welldefined head 2-4 sensorytentacleswitheyes Moves gliding along a surface Leaves mucus or slime produced by glands on the foot. Invertabrate Gastropodcharacteristics

  5. Name describes theshape of theshell. • Alsoknown as: • Pelecypoda (axefoot) • Acephala (no head) • Lamellibranchia (plate-like gill elements) aprox.  9,200 species Bivalvia

  6. Shell (2 asymmetrically rounded halves) • Made of calcium carbonate • Hinge (flexible ligament that joins the valves) • Most live in water • No defined head • Breathe-only one/two pairs of gills • Have no brain • Can live in water with a pH greater than 5 • Mostly sedentary Characteristics

  7. Most are fossils of theshell • Fewslugfossils • Earliests-exclusively marine (end of Cambrian) GastropodFossil Record

  8. 1st fromtheCambrianperiod • 510 millionyearsago • MostabundantduringtheDevonianperiod • 400 millionyearsago • DuringPaleozoicperiod- near shore enviroments. BivalveFossil record

  11. Gastropods: • Mostly hervibores or scavangers • Use radula to eat • tongue-like structure-rows of rasping teeth. • Adapts to the food it eats • Stomach is above foot • Vivalves: • Filter feeding (gills) • Scraping detritus from bottom (most primitive) • Intercellulardigestion Digestivesystem

  12. Lungsorgills • Dependingonthehabitat • Respiratoryprotein: Hemocyanin • Bivalves • Watercurrentsenabletheorganismtogetfreshoxygen. RespiratorySystem

  13. Open circulatorysystem • Gastropods: • 2 chamberheart • Auricle (recievesthehaemolymph) • Ventricle (pumpshaemolymphintothe aorta) • Haemolymph • Circulatoryfluid • Short aorta • Divided in 2 mainvessels • Bivalves: • 3 chamberheart Circulatorysystem

  14. Gastropods • Olfactory • Mechanorceptor • Statocyst • Eyes or visual organ • Central nervous system • Bivalves • Poor nervous system and sensory organs • Chemosensorycells at edge of mantle Sensorysystem
