Chapter 32, Problem 6TYU

SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY • INTERPRET THE DATA Redraw the bilaterian portion of Figure 32.11 for the nine phyla in the table below. Consider these blastopore fates: protostomy (mouth develops from the blastopore), deuterostomy (anus develops from the blastopore), or neither (the blastopore closes and the mouth develops elsewhere). Depending on the blastopore fate of its members, label each branch that leads to a phylum with P, D, N, or a combination of these letters. What Is the ancestral blastopore fate? How many times has blastopore fate changed over the course of evolution? Explain.

Blastopore Fate Phyla
Protostomy (P) Platyhelminthes, Syndermata, Nematoda; most Mollusca, most Annelida; few Arthropoda
Deuterostomy (D) Echinodermata, Chordata; most Arthropoda; few Mollusca, few Annelida
Neither (N) Acoela

Phyla Cnidaria and Ctenophora are: A. Diploblastic (two germ layers), with no symmetry B. Triploblastic (three germ layers) and bilaterally symmetrical C. Triploblastic (three germ layers), with no symmetry D. Diploblastic (two germ layers) and radially symmetrical O E. Two germ layers with bilateral symmetry
Are there notable similarities in the sex cells and sex organs in the different organisms, namely Saccharomyces, rhizopus, coprinus gill, hydra, and marchantia? What about differences?  Elaborate.
Differentiate between Phylum Porifera and Clade Eumetazoa. -Poriferans are only haploid during their life cycle, whereas eumetazoans are diploid with haploid sex cells at various stages of their life cycle. -Poriferans have mobile gametes while eumetazoans do not. -Poriferans invert during their development whereas eumetazoans do not invert at any time during their life cycle. -The various cells types of Poriferans do not form permanent associations into true tissues during their life cycle, whereas Eumetazoa possess true, stable tissues. -Poriferans have only one kind of cell during their life cycle whereas Eumetazoa have many kinds of cells throughout their life cycle.
