Evolution of Animals (Metazoa) BIOL 1407
Animal Body Plan • Tissues • Absent = Parazoa • Present = Eumetazoa
Radial Symmetry • Encounter environment equally from all sides • Sessile, sedentary or planktonic • Sea Anemone Feeding Video • http://www.mbayaq.org/efc/video_library/video_library.aspx • Then click on “Anemone Feeding” • Jellyfish Swimming • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=760lUxyle6I
Bilateral Symmetry • Central nervous system in head • Active movers • Frilled lizard video • http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/player/animals/reptiles-animals/lizards/lizard_frilled_ontherun.html?fs=animals.nationalgeographic.com • Crocodile gallop video • http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/natsci/herpetology/brittoncrocs/images/cj-gallop2.mpg
Number of Germ Layers • Diploblastic: has two germ layers • Endoderm • Ectoderm • Triploblastic: has three germ layers • Endoderm • Mesoderm • Ectoderm
Body Cavities • What is a body cavity? • Fluid-filled cavity separates digestive tract from body wall
Body Cavities • Advantages: • Fluid cushions organs • Acts as hydrostatic skeleton • Allows internal organs to move independently of body wall • Allows internal organs space for folding
Development • Protostome • Fate of blastopore • Type of cleavage: spiral and determinate • Coelom formation • Deuterostome • Fate of blastopore • Type of cleavage: radial and indeterminate • Coelom formation

Evolution of Animals • Earliest animal fossils • Fossilized embryos from China • 575 mya
Ediacaran Fauna • 565-550 mya • Australia • Soft-bodied animal fossils • What type of symmetry?
Ediacaran Fauna • Animal fossil • Many body segments • Head • What type of symmetry?
Cambrian Explosion • 535-525 mya • Animal diversity ↑↑ • 50% extant animal phyla in fossil record
Cambrian Explosion • First animals with hard mineralized skeletons • 1st arthropods, chordates & echinoderms
Hypotheses for Cambrian Explosion (1) Predator-prey coevolution (2) Rise in atmospheric oxygen levels ↑ metabolic rate and body size (3) Evolution of Hox genes developmental flexibility
Traditional Phylogenetic Tree • Was based on body plans • Tissues absent or present • Type of symmetry • Types of body cavities • Protostomes versus deuterostomes
Modern Phylogenetic Tree • Based on molecular data
Modern Phylogenetic Tree • Reinforces some of traditional tree • Parazoa vs. Eumetazoa • Radial vs. Bilateral • Deuterostomes are a clade
Modern Phylogenetic Tree • Radical affects on other parts • Body cavity characteristics are analogous • Two main lineages for most invertebrates • Lophotrochozoa • Ecdysozoa
Lophotrochozoa • Clade named for presence of either a: • Lophophore (horse-shoe shaped ciliated feeding apparatus) • Trochophore larva
Ecdysozoa • Clade was named for presence of • Ecdysis = molting • Produce an exoskeleton • Must be shed as animal grows
