Unit 4C JOURNAL #7 4/13 • What general traits do all arthropods share? List at least 4 types of arthropods you learned about by doing the webquest.
Kingdom Animalia Phylum Arthropoda Subphylum Chelicerata Subphylum Crustacea Lobster Crab Shrimp Crayfish Barnacles Isopods Class Merostomata Horseshoe crab Class Arachnida spiders Subphylum Uniramia Class Chilopoda centipedes Class Hexapoda insects Class Diplopoda millipedes
General Arthropod Characteristics • Arthropod means “jointed foot” • Paired jointed appendages • Segmented bodies • Tagmatization- body regions have specific functions a. Head- sensory/feeding b. Thorax- locomotion c. Abdomen- visceral functions
Exoskeleton a. Support & protection b. Prevents water loss c. Two layers 1. Epicuticle- lipoprotein; impermeable to water & pesticides 2. Procuticle- chitin; thick, tough, leathery protein
Grow by shedding exoskeleton- ecdysis (molting) • Ventral nervous system • Open circulatory system • Complete digestive system w/ mouth & anus
SUBPHYLUM CRUSTACEA
Lobsters, shrimp, crab, barnacles, copepods, isopods (rolly polly)
Crayfish Anatomy Body regions • Cephalothorax- fused head & chest region. Covered by hard, sclerotized carapace. • Abdomen- has some swimming appendages and visceral organs. In some, takes form of muscular tail.
Paired appendages- Head: 1stAntennae- long; sense, feed, taste 2ndAntennules- short; sense, feed, taste 3rdMandibles- chewing & grinding 4th, - 6thmaxillae- small, hair-like; respiration, food handling, taste 7th, 8thmaxillipeds- larger than maxillae, food handling, taste
Paired appendages- Thorax: • 9thchelipeds- “claw”; food capture & defense. • 10th- 13thperiopods- walking legs for movement
Paired appendages- Abdomen: • Pleopods- hair-like swimmerets may help with swimming; First 2 pairs at junction of thorax & abdomen are used to determine gender & for sexual reproduction • Telson- tail like structure at end of abdomen. Anus located here. • Uropods- 2 flipper-like structures on either side of abdomen (total of 4 uropods); aid in steering/swimming
Digestion/Feeding 1. Scavengers & predators- eat other invertebrates, some plants 2. Foregut/stomach- enlarged part of stomach in cephalothorax;contains tooth-like structures (gastric teeth) for grinding food. 3. Digestive gland- secrete enzymes into stomach & store food. 4. Intestine- embedded in muscular abdomen. 5. Anus
Circulation • Open circulatory system • Have heart with short vessels
Respiration • Gills- feathery; under carapace • Maxillae- push water over gills while resting. • Walking legs- push water over gills while moving.
Excretion 1. Green glands- kidney-like organs located behind 2nd pair of antennae. 2. Renal pore- ammonia liquid waste released through this pore in front of head.
Nervous & Sensory System • Cerebral ganglion- fused trilobed brain • Ventral nerve cord- runs along belly with small ganglia masses • Compound eyes- on movable stalks • Setae- hair-like on mouth & antennae; detect food & pheromones
Reproduction • Dioecious • Mating occurs after females molt in fall. • Male inseminates female using 2 stiff anterior pleopods. • In the spring, as the female passes eggs out of her body, they become fertilized. • Eggs attach to pleopods on abdomen where they stay until hatching.
Economical/Environmental Importance • Part of the Food chain • Control animal populations • Major source of protein for many regions of the world’s human population. • Decomposers (rolly polly)
The structure responsible for excretion in crayfish is a. Kidney b. Green gland c. cheliped • The pincers used for food capture & defense are called a. Pleopods b. Chelipeds c. tweezers • The large finger-like structures around the mouth that are used for tasting & food handling are • Maxillipeds b. Mandibles c. Telson • The green glands are located in the ___ region. a. head b. abdomen c. tail fan • The telson is where you would find the • Green glands b. Anus c. chelipeds • Which two structures are important in respiration? • Maxillae & walking legs • Maxillae & pleopods • Pleopods & walking legs

We will do the vocab quiz after returning papers. Then short video and crayfish dissection
On the back page of your lab sheet, top is cut off, so write on the upper left or right side the following- C=circulatory N=nervous D=digestive R=reproduction E=excretory Now start reading the first page
