  6. Sponges, Cnidarians, and Coral

  7. Sponges • Phylum Porifera • Importance of • Origin of • Characteristics of sponges • Body Structure • Obtaining Food and Oxygen • Reproduction Summary

  8. Summary • Most sponges live in s ____ w____ and are a_________ symmetrical. • Adult sponges are s___________, which means they do not move. • Sponges pull water into their bodies, where cells filter out f_________ and o____________.

  9. Cnidarians • Two body forms • examples • Body structure • Obtaining Food • Reproduction • Origin of Cnidarians • Summary-

  10. Summary • Cnidarians live mostly in salt water, have r______ symmetry and have 2 body forms p_____ & m______. • Most have tentacles with s_______ cells to obtain food. • Cnidarians have nervecells, tissues and a digestive cavity.

  11. IN-Summarize the 6 animal characteristics from page 330. 10/10 OUT-Why are sponges considered less complex than Cnidarians?

  12. IN-Coral reefs are most commonly found at s______ depths in t________ waters. 10/11 • OUT- Cnidarians are more complex than sponges because they have _______, a digestive cavity, and a nerve net connecting all body parts; sponges do not have ________, organs, or organ systems.

  13. Coral • Coral Reefs • Formation of coral reefs • Importance of coral reefs • Made of ________ • Grow as ________ • Can take _____ of years to form • Provide habitat for _____ • Protect ___________ • Provide __________ Summary

  14. IN-Summarize the 6 animal characteristics from page 330. 10/10 OUT-Why are sponges considered less complex than Cnidarians?

  15. Summary-Coral • Coral reefs are most commonly found at shallow depths in tropical waters, particularly in the Pacific Ocean, but deep water and cold water corals also exist on smaller scales. • Coral reefs deliver ecosystem servicesto tourism, fisheries and shoreline protection. The annual global economic value of coral reefs has been estimated at $30 billion.

  16. Vocabulary • Sessile- • Hermaphrodite- • Polyp- • Medusa- • Tentacle- • Stinging Cell- Definition Here Summary: Cnidarians are more complex than sponges because they have tissues, a digestive cavity, and a nerve net connecting all body parts; sponges do not have tissues, organs, or organ systems.
