E N D
WORM PHLYA • Worms are general grouping • Worms have bilateral symmetry • Allows for more sophisticated behaviour • Worms are the beginning of advanced inverts • Evolved organs and other specialization • Evolved complete digestive tracts • Body cavity/ coelem • found in most bilateral animals • organs are suspended in this space
Worm Phylas • Worms are soft bodied so they mostly live in tubes, burrows or under something • Feeding ranges from parasites to carnivorous hunters • Some worms create mucous nets to catch food while they are safe in their burrow
Platyhelminthes - Flatworms • Advancements include… • Central nervous system (brain) • Muscles • Simplest of animals with bilateral symmetry • Three classes of flatworms • Turbellaria: carnivorous hunters • Trematodes and Cestodes which are both parasitic
Tapeworm found on Tiger sharks and mackerel. http://www.marineparasitology.com/Papers/Palm%20&%20Klimpel%202007.pdf
Nemertea- Ribbon worms • Advancements… • Nervous system with a brain • Muscles • Circulatory System with blood vessels • Complete digestive tract (mouth and anus)
Ribbon worms continued- • Stretchy bodies (8 in can stretch to 3 ft) • Gather food with a proboscis that everts from inside them to catch food • Proboscis may be sticky or poisoned

Nematode - Roundworms -Body cavity -Have to molt cuticle as they grow -Live in sediments and tissues of orgs -parasitic & predatory
Annelida – Segmented Worms • Head-like area with a brain • Segmentation- repeated compartments • Helps with motion • Allows for appendages http://faculty.clintoncc.suny.edu/faculty/Michael.Gregory/files/Bio%20102/Bio%20102%20Laboratory/Animal%20Diversity/Lophotrochozoans/img012.jpg
Class Polychaeta • Each segment has a flattened extension called parapodia • Gills for breathing Class Oligochaete • burrow in mud and sand • Scavengers Class Hirudinea • Live on whatever they are “eating” • Parastic / blood sucking • Sucker at each end

Sipuncula – Peanut Worms • Recent studies have placed them with Annelids even though they aren’t segmented • Bottom dwellers, many burrow • Deposit feeders

Echiuria- Sausage Worms Like the Peanut Worms
Pogonophora –Beard Worms • Lack a digestive system • Symbiotic bacteria at hydrothermal vents provide them food
Vent community worms, live in tubes Use bacteria in them to manufacture food Tube worms White Tube worm www.nematodes.org/.../odl_pogonophora.html
Chaetognatha- Arrow Worms • All the features of a complex org • Eyes and a distinct head • planktonic • vicious carnivores preying on larvae of other animals
Lophophorates…colonial worms • All the features of complex orgs • Lophophore- unique feeding structure with ciliated tentacles • Suspension feeders • Two groups-Bryozoans and Phoronids
Phylum Mollusca • Evolutionary advances in specializing parts of the body • Advancement in the nervous system • Squid and octopus are as intelligent as some vertebrates • Allows for more sophisticated behaviors • Very successful phylum and one of the most diverse
Phylum Mollusca • Wide diversity of form but based on general body plan http://palaeo.gly.bris.ac.uk/Palaeofiles/Fossilgroups/Cephalopoda/BAUPLAN.JPG http://www.manandmollusc.net/
Mollusc Body Plan All molluscs have or had: Foot, Mantle, Shell and Radula Mantle – tissue which secretes shell Bilateral symmetry Body Cavity Open circulatory system with compartmentalized heart (except cephalapods)

Phylum Mollusca Class Bivalvia “two shells” Ex. Clams, mussels, scallops http://www.xconomy.com/wordpress/wp-content/images/2008/12/scallop_eyes.jpg http://www.sciencedaily.com/images/2006/10/061006072601.jpg
Figure 2 Geoduck Clams. Geoducks are a species of long-lived (100+ years) saltwater clams (Panope generosa) native to the northern Pacific coasts of Canada and the U.S. Pacific Northwest. Washington State’s Puget Sound bays and estuaries harbor the highest density of geoducks in the continuous United States (Washington Dept. of Ecology). Photo courtesy of Are Strom.

Phylum Mollusca Class Scaphapoda…tusk shells : www.dkimages.com/.../GreenTusk-Shell-1.html
Phylum Mollusca Class Gastropoda “stomach foot”: snails, slugs and limpets http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/images/taxa/inverts/shell_morph.jpg
Phylum Mollusca Class Cephalopoda…squid, octopus http://pics.livejournal.com/krakenwakes/pic/00003p9r
Shells of Shellfish • Three layers: conchin, CaCO3 in conchin matrix, and nacreous made of CaCO3 with some conchin in sheet-like pattern (mother-of-pearl). • Wide variety of shapes. • Reduced shells (sea hares, squid pen, cuttle bone). • Lost shells (octopus, nudibranchs) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/50/Valve-InternalView.png/300px-Valve-InternalView.png
Mollusc Locomotion • Have a muscular foot for crawling, swimming, burrowing • Modified into tentacles for squid & octopus • Muscles forces water out siphon or funnel for swimming. • Byssal threads- protein strands used to anchor some shellfish to a surface http://www.huntsmanmarine.ca/assets/images/slide18.gif
Sense Organs Well developed nervous system in cephalopods Chemosensory organs- sense chemicals by smell or taste Cephalopods have highly developed eyes. Distinct images and possibly color (1 species of squid).

Interesting Characteristics Color change in cephalopods using chromatophores. Cells that contain pigments and are under nervous system and hormonal control. http://imagecache01a.allposters.com/images/pic/NGSPOD/124954-FB~Close-View-of-the-Chromatophore-Laden-Skin-of-a-Squid-Posters.jpg http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3d/Striped_pyjama_squid.jpg
Mollusc Feeding Radula Used for scraping, boring, and sometime associated with toxins. www.jaxshells.org/rad.htm
Cephalapods Cephalopods highly mobile predators. Catch prey with suckered arms. Neurotoxins associated with beak in octopus. http://precordialthump.medbrains.net/files/2009/01/octopus-beak.jpg
Bivalves • Filter feeding • Water comes through a siphon, passes over ctenidia, exits over anus and out exhalent siphon • Siphons are a flexible tube. • Food particles sorted by ctenidia http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/willow/geoduck-info0.gif
Gastropods • Gastropod feeding habits are extremely varied, although most species make use of a radula in some aspect of their feeding behavior. • Some graze, some browse, some feed on plankton, some are scavengers or detritivores, some are active carnivores.
Mollusc Digestion • Complete digestive system • Stomach often has a crystalline style- rod with enzymes • Food then goes to a digestive gland and to its intestine. Waste passed through anus.
How do molluscs reproduce and develop? http://www.marlin.ac.uk/php/image_viewer.php?images=crefor&topic=Species
Mollusc Reproduction and Development Separate sexes and sexual reproduction Some lay eggs and some bear live young Some with internal and external reproduction http://homepage.uab.edu/acnnnghm/BY255L/BY255LImages/BY255LImages-Mollusca/WhelkEggCase-2.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pbKM4qxmq4c/SItJHG3rmHI/AAAAAAAAEms/D2Fh4ujwQ6I/s400/03.jpg
Circulatory System exception • Cephalopods have closed circulatory system. • More efficient circulation which allows them to be fast hunters. news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/12/0612...
Human and Mollusc Interaction • Source of food • Shells are a source of calcium for some birds • Crushed shells are used to kill agricultural pests. Mollusks also nourish humans culturally. • Mollusk shells served as money in some early cultures • Species health is used in monitoring water pollution • Many are invasive species
True or False • All cone shells possess a poisonous dart (their"radula"), with which they harpoon, inject venom and kill their prey. Cone shell venom is toxic enough to hurt or even kill a full-grown man! http://publications.nigms.nih.gov/findings/sept02/images/shells.jpg
True or False • Most shelled molluscs can make pearls • They coat the foreign substance with nacre, the same as the lining of their shell. • Stimulus include organic material, parasites, or even damage • Pearl oysters take up to 7 years to grow pearls big enough for jewelry. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_VfjiSyBlALg/SbgT6kWBw4I/AAAAAAAAAOc/-8OW3-ypwc4/s400/Natural%2BPearls%2BCollage.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.pearl-professor.com/&usg=__RUA4pRNos1yOfGwtkHVWmYmT9d8=&h=400&w=312&sz=21&hl=en&start=34&tbnid=66apw7XW8G4G3M:&tbnh=124&tbnw=97&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpearls%2Bnatural%26gbv%3D2%26ndsp%3D20%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Dactive%26sa%3DN%26start%3D20
