MAKE CONNECTIONS Historically, annelids and arthropods were viewed as closely related because both havebody segmentation. Yet DNA sequence data indicatethat annelids belong to one clade (Lophotrochozoa) andarthropods to another (Ecdysozoa). Could traditionaland molecular hypotheses be tested by studyingthe Hox genes that control body segmentation (seeConcept 21.6)? Explain.
Draw a see cucumber and label the major features visible on the animal. In particular, locate the tube feet.1. How does the arrangement of tube feet on a cucumber compare to that of a sea star? To an urchin?2. Based on the arrangement of tube feet, would you propose that cucumbers are more closely related to sea star or urchins, evolutionarily speaking.?
1. What for you is the most important adaptation of arthropods that allowed them to flourish in the terrestrial environment?
2. How are tardigrades able to survive in harsh conditions?
