Report
An introduction to animals. 1. The surface of most animals is lined by an outer layer of protective epithelial tissue, the skin. What is the embryonic origin of these cells? The ectoderm 2. Which tissue type, or organ, is NOT correctly matched with its germ layer tissue? Nervous: Mesoderm 3. Which of the following traits is (are) unique to animals? Nervous system signal conduction and muscular movement 4. According to the evidence collected so far, the animal kingdom is ________. Monophyletic 5. All of the following support the sponges–first hypothesis for the origin of multicellularity in animals EXCEPT ________. Ctenophores lack miRNA, while sponges have gene regulators 6. The last common ancestor of all animals was probably a ________. Flagellated Protist 7. Diploblasts have only two embryonic tissue layers. What are these layers? The ectoderm and the endoderm 8. The non-bilaterian animals consists of which three groups? Ecdysozoa, lophotrochozoa, and deuterostomia 9. Which of the following is NOT a potential benefit of indirect development in animals? These are benefits: Animals with indirect development produce large numbers of eggs. It is also the ability to make large numbers of offspring that can feed themselves very quickly. 10. Among sexually reproducing animals, viviparous species... viviparous species… giving birth to living young from within the body rather than laying eggs . 11. Animals can be grouped as viviparous, oviparous, or ovoviviparous depending on where eggs and embryos develop following internal fertilization. Which of these reproductive strategies is most common among animals? Oviparous (egg laying)
12. What animal lacks any type of nervous system? Sponges 13. The basic bilaterian body shape is a tube within a tube. What is the name of the fluid filled body cavity between these tubes? Coelom 14. The most recent common ancestor to the protostomes and deuterostomes most likely featured which of the following traits? A body captivity Body Cavity 15. Animals have evolved a variety of feeding strategies. What type of animal is most likely to capture food suspended in the air or water? Filter feeders are found in many different animal phyla, including brachiopods, mollusks, various worms, and chordates 16. Both animals and fungi are heterotrophic. Animal heterotrophy can be distinguished from fungal heterotrophy in that most animals derive their nutrition by ________. ingesting materials 17. You find a new species of worm and want to classify it. Which of the following lines of evidence would allow you to classify the worm as a nematode and not an annelid? It sheds its external cuticle to grow. 18. The digestive system of most animals is lined with cells through which nutrients are absorbed. What is the embryonic origin of these cells? Endoderm 19. Muscle cells among animals are a result of divergent evolutionary paths, yet all animals have homologous genes for __________. contractile proteins 20. An organism that exhibits cephalization probably also ________. has bilateral symmetry 1. You find what you believe is a new species of animal. What characteristics would enable you to argue that it is more closely related to a flatworm than it is to a roundworm? It has no coelom. 2. Among protostomes, which morphological trait has shown the most variation?
type of body cavity (coelom vs. pseudocoelom vs. no coelom) 3. Adaptations to terrestrial environments evolved independently in arthropods, mollusks, nematodes, and annelids. What logical conclusion would you make from this statement? The common ancestor of all these groups was probably aquatic 4. A cephalopod's tentacles are modified from its ________. Which one of the following is a lophotrochozoan? foot 5. the two major subgroups within the protostomes are? Lophotrochozoa and Ecdysozoa . 6. A(n) ________ has a crown of ciliated tentacles that function in feeding. lophophore 7. Among the major animal groups, which contains the largest number of species? Insects 8. Which of the following protostomes would you expect to have the largest surface-area-to-volume ratio? Assume that all of the following are the same total length. a platyhelminth 9. Both plants and animals went through a water to land transition during their evolutionary history. Comparing these... 10. Which of the following is not a challenge that animals had to overcome in adapting to life on land? Webbed feet 11. Among the protostomes both roundworms and earthworms have high surface area to volume ratios that are an adaptation to increase the efficiency of gas exchange. As a consequence this restricts these animals to only certain environments. Where would you expect to find roundworms and earthworms? Roundworms are free living, and earthworms are in fresh water habitats. 12. Spiral cleavage is a characteristic trait for which group of animals? annelids, mollusks, and flatworms,
