- Neither cnidarians nor turbellarians possess a circulatory system. For most large, active animals, this would pose a (fatal) problem. Describe and discuss the features of large active cnidarians ands turbellarians that allow them to respire, nourish their cells, and excrete despite the absence of a conventional circulatory system.What features are common to animals specifically invertebrates without well-developed circulatory systems?What is the differencebetween octopuses andmussels regarding theircirculatory systems? Howdoes that difference influencethe mobility of these animals?
- Contrast the structure's and or systems used by Leuconoid sponges, snails and earthworms to circulate materials throughout the body. In addition to describing the structure of the system also comment on the relative efficiencu of each system for the lifestyle of each organismWhat is a characteristic of the circulatory systems of arthropods and mollusks that distinguishes them from the circulatory system of echinoderms? They have lungs. They have muscular pumps to circulate the extracellular fluid. They are closed circulatory systems. They have extracellular fluid to transport substances to and from internal organs. They have cilia to circulate the extracellular fluid.Arthropods are distinguished by having an exoskeleton andlacking external cilia. How do these traits of the phylum affectthe breathing structures and ventilation modes of arthropods?
- animals in which of the following classes possess adductor muscles, labial palps, and use their gills for both respiration and feeding? -Bivalvia -Cephalopoda -Polyplacophora -Anthozoa -GastropodaWhich of the following would NOTbe considered an organ of respiration for organisms in Phylum Chordata? Gills Lungs Amnion Alveoli SkinMatching: (23-27) Match the specialized cell/organ to its function: 23 Colloblast 24. Choanocyte 25 Spicule 26. Osculum 27) Cnidocyte A. structural support B. water exits sponge here C. stinging cell with poison barb D. sticky cell to capture food E. filters food out of water in sponges
- Body fluids of eumetazoan animals are separated into fluid “compartments.” Name these compartments and explain how compartmentalization may differ in animals with open and closed circulatory systems.In arthropods, the tracheal system isa. a unique set of structures that function in ingestion and digestion offood.b. a series of branching tubes extending into the body that allow for gasexchange.c. a series of tubules that allow waste products in the blood to bereleased into the digestive tract.d. the series of ommatidia that form the compound eye.e. none of the above.Describe adaptations in the circulatory and neurosensory systems of cephalopods that are particularly valuable for actively swimming, predaceous animals
