The Animal Kingdom • Somewhere around 9 or 10 million species of animals inhabit the earth. • About 800,000 species have been identified. • Biologists recognize about 36 separate phyla within Kingdom Animalia.
The Animal Kingdom • Most animals reproduce sexually, by means of differentiated haploid cells (eggs and sperm). • Most animals are diploid, meaning that the cells of adults contain two copies of the genetic material. • Some animals can reproduce asexually through budding, fragmentation, or parthenogenesis
Animal Systems • Skeletal: exoskeleton (i.e. shells), endoskeleton, or other special adaptations (i.e. bones) provide support, protection • Muscular: muscle attachment to skeletal systems allows for locomotion • Digestion: incomplete or complete digest food and absorb nutrients • Circulatory: open or closed circulatory systems distribute of nutrients and oxygen; remove of wastes • Respiratory: Absorption of oxygen; removal of CO2 by lungs, book-lungs, gills • Excretory: Removal of wastes through nephrites or kidneys • Nervous: Perception, control of movement, control and coordination of organ system activities by brain, spinal cord, nerves, nerve-net • Reproductive: Production of new organisms through sexual or asexual reproduction (organisms may be male, female, or hermaphroditic)
The Animal Kingdom • The animal kingdom can be divided into two categories: Invertebrate and Vertebrate
Obj. 4 – 14 Invertebrate AnimalsIntro to Invertebrates • Animals without backbones Invertebrate Phylums Porifera Cnidarians Platyhelminthes Nematodes Annelids Mollusks Arthropods Echinoderms
Porifera (pore bearing) Characteristics • They look like plants but they are animals (most primitive). • Mostly marine (colorful); some fresh water (dull green) • Adult sponges stay fixed in one place; larvae free swimming. • No symmetry. • Their bodies are full of holes (pores) and their skeleton is made of spiky fibers called spicules. • Filter-feeders of plankton. Water pumped through pores by flagellum movement of collar cells, microvilli trap plankton, water enters center cavity and exits through osculum.

Mollusca Characteristics • i.e. snails, clams, slugs, squid etc. • Basic body structure – mantle, shell, foot • All have a mantle (fold of tissue draped around it’s soft fleshy body, contains vital organs and secretes material for shells) • Most have shells for structure and protection • Most have some type of muscular foot for locomotion
Mollusca cont. . . • Found in aquatic (fresh and marine) & terrestrial habitats • Developed nervous system with ganglia and paired nerve chords (some have large brains with well developed sense organs) • Has an open circulatory system • Gas exchange organ – gills; mantle for some • Possess a gut with mouth and anus • Bilaterally symmetrical • Have mesoderm lined body cavity
