Clam I need help with the following questions about Clam When dissecting a clam, what functions of the parts are observed? What is the general feeding strategy of the clam, and how does the digestive system allow it to behave in that way? What is the nature of the circulatory system (open or closed) and is the clam acoelomate, pseudocoelomate, or true coelomate? How does the clam reproduce, obtain oxygen, and get rid of waste?

Procedure 8: Echinodermata Echinoderms are a diverse group of marine organisms. The name means "spiny-skin" and is appropriate because the internal skeleton of the animals in this group has spines, called ossicles, that usually protrude through the skin.. Echinoderms have a unique water vascular system that includes a network of tubes that connect many hollow tube feet. Water flow is controlled by muscle contractions and directs the movement and feeding of these animals. 1. Observe the display of specimens at the counter and answer the questions below. a. Name five examples of animals that belong to this phylum. 1. 수 Table 13.2. Sea star. 2. 3. 4. b. What type of symmetry does this phylum exhibit? c. Observe a live starfish or sea urchin. Look for the tube feet. 1. Describe the location of the tube feet in your specimen. 2. Estimate the number of tube feet in each arm.
1. Cite 5 characteristics of sponges: 2. Which characteristics are unique to ctenophores? 3. Cnidarians are diploblastic, possessing an ectoderm and endoderm. Name the gelatinous nonliving material found between these two tissues. What cells are found within this gelatinous tissue? List the functions of these cells. 4. Polyp body consists of a tubular sessile body. True or false? 5. Define radial and bilateral symmetry, and protostomes and deuterostomes: 6. The presence of two different body forms, or dimorphism, is seen in the phylum Cnidaria. The form resembles an "upside-down cup" with tentacles, and the body form consists of a tubular sessile body. Hydra is an example of the body form, and a jellyfish is an example of the pody form.
