MotileMotile
• Free moving stage in the life cycle of a sessile animal.

• Advantage is so they might move away from parent. Start a new colony etc.
GlycogenGlycogen

• Have more than one cell and must obtain food and energy by eating other organisms.
Embryo development Embryo development
• 1. Fertilization • 2. Zygote • 3. Cleavage- zygote divides• 4. Blastula - when the embryo becomes a
hollow ball of cells. • 5. Gastrula - As the blastula continues to
develop, certain cells move inward from the surface, forming a two - layered, cup- shaped embryo.

Body Plans Body Plans
• Most can be compared on the basis of symmetry and segmentation.
Body symmetryBody symmetry
• Arrangement of body parts around a central axis. Balance in proportions of an object.
Radial symmetryRadial symmetry• Body parts radiating from a central
axis.• Can be divided along any plane,
through a central axis. • Ex: Sea star
Bilateral symmetryBilateral symmetry• Body parts arrange in pairs on either side
of a central axis. Generally have more complex sense organs. Tend to be located in the anterior end. Animals can generally move faster.
• Can divide down it’s length into similar right and left halves.
AsymmetryAsymmetry
• Irregular shaped body. • Usually a sessile animal.• Ex: sponge

surface.
PosteriorPosterior
• Refers to rear or tail end.
AnteriorAnterior
• Refers to front or head end.
SegmentationSegmentation
• Body parts divided into repeated units or segments.
• Ex: earthworm, human vertebrae
AcoelomateAcoelomate• Organisms that have
the 3 cell layers, (ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm) , but no body cavities.

the surface of an animal.

EndoskeletonEndoskeleton
• Rigid framework inside of an animal. This skeleton in echinoderms may be made of Calcium carbonate (CaCO3); cartilage as in sharks or bones.
• Ex: human, vertebrates.

backbone. All are bilaterally symmetrical animals that have endoskeletons.
InvertebratesInvertebrates• Animals
without a backbone.
