- Your colleague is studying a newly discovered organism. She is becoming increasingly convinced that the organism is an arthropod. You find that you must respectfully disagree when you note that the organism has a set of distinctly non-arthropod characteristics. The features that cause you to exclude the organism from the arthropod grouping are antennae, six legs, and mandibles. pseudocoel, closed circulatory system, and ventral heart. Malpighian tubules, ommatidia, and tagmata. jointed legs, ecdysis, and an exoskeleton. compound eyes, book lungs, and a hemocoel.arrow_forwardInsects display an incredible diversity of body forms and ecological roles. Some insects undergo complete metamorphosis, a lifecycle involving distinct larval, pupal, and adult stages. How might this lifecycle contribute to the success and diversity of these insects? It allows the larval and adult stages to exploit different resources or habitats. It allows the insects to reproduce more rapidly. It provides a defense against predators. It allows the insects to migrate long distances.arrow_forwardplease complete the tissue organization, segmentation, and digestive openingsarrow_forward

Many unicellular organisms can move in response to chemical changes outside the cell – amoeba exhibits locomotion, paramecium use cilia to get around. Protists such as the Amoeba and the Paramecium are important to our discussion of evolution because of their ability to respond to changes in the environment. These single-celled eukaryotes have this ability because a) their DNA responds to stimuli from the environment, b) they have the same germ cell layers that the Cnidaria have, c) new proteins, located in the cell membrane, have shapes and charge patterns that react to a stimulus by generating an electrical impulse. d) they have a Golgi Apparatus that measures the stimulus from the environment, e) none of these are possible.arrow_forward
