Chidaria (hydras, jellyfish, corals, sea anemones, Man of War) Cnidobytes Ecto AND endoderm Incomplete Gut Radial Symmetry Stinging Cell a sac-like structure, a collar, and a long thread

which contains venom. Tentacles contain dinoflagellates which are photosynthetic and heterotrophic during day/and autotrophic at night. The crown of jellyfish have muscle-like structures. The ends of tentacles have bioluminescent lores on them. BOX JELLYFISH has the most poisonous venom. CORL Bleaching = when corals release all photosynthetic sympiotes and thus lose their color. Corals reproduce asexually. Phylum Corals have calcium-carbonated shells with polyps that stick up and out of them. Corals are all tropical life forms. They serve as food for many organisms. Corals create large reefs along the shore lines of ocean basins like the RED SEA. Once a coral is touched it starts to decay, leading to the demise of the specimen. SEA ANEMONES have photosynthetic properties to them, like most corals. Clownfish live on sea anenomes and need their surface to survive. Platyhelminthes A group of worms called FLATWORMS. Flatworms are bilaterally symmetrical and not very highly evolved. Are ectoderm (skin), endoderm (fat), and mesoderm (organs/muscle). Incomplete gut

 Phylum Phylum

Solid body Exs include: planaria, flukes, tape worms. Incomplete digestive tube with no anus. They sometimes form to kidney walls. Tapeworms and other flatworms/flukes are parasitic to humans. Are hermaphrodites Nematoda ROUND WORMS. Parasitic. Free-living Bilateral. Cephalized. Complete Gut. Organ systems. Coolom (Body cavity). Diocious. Annelida Bilateral Complete gut Cephalized All organs. Hermaphrodites and dioecious. Exs include: marine worms, earth worms, leeches.

FREE LIVING LIFE FORMS are found in freshwater, soil, etc. Flatworms are usually hermaphroditic BLOOD FLUKES are found throughout the lesser developed tropical areas of the world such as the Caribbean and Asia. Phylum Are parasitic to humans AND snails. Flukes may enter urinary or bladder infection; blood is lost in the urine; can cause shistoshimiasis. TAPE WORMS migrate in the body to tissues (lung) and even to the brain. Nematoda (2) THREADWORMS and ROUNDWORMS. Small, microscopic, and found everywhere in the world.

 Phylum Phylum

Found in soil, water, everything. Long, slender, less than a mm to 3 feet long. Harmless (mostly) In beach sand, there are about a million. Have a mouth and anal opening (complete gut). Have body cavities (a space between body wall and intestines). Dioecious = means separate sexes, non-hermaphroditic. ASCARIS produce about 200 eggs a day in the lower intestines of humans. Humans can be dewormed. ASCARIS do not stay in your intestines. They eventually breach and roam around the body. Annelida (2) SEGMENTED WORMS. Bilateral. Complete Gut. Cephalized. Contain all organs. Hermaphrodites AND didecious. ALL are freeliving organisms LEECHES are earthworm-like. There are about 10,000 types of earthworms. Earthworms are important because the soil they eat and excrete is now fertilized. AND they are also one of the most important organisms on Earth. MARINE WORMS are the ancestors of arthropods. First to have worm legs. EARTH WORMS are hermaphrodites. MARINE WORMS are dioecious. Mollusca Cephalized Bilateral All organ systems. Muscular foot- locomotion. Mantle secretes chitin. Radula used for feeding.

GASTROPODA are snails, Bivalvia/PELECYPODA are clams oysters and scallops, CEPHALOPODA are squids, octopus, and cattlefish. MOLLUSCA is a very large group of organisms. moll = soft OR to mollify, to soften. Cephalized animals; have a head. The MANTLE is what lines and produces the shell. The SHELL is composed of calcium carbonate, or chitin. The RADULA is a scraping mouth part. o GASTROPODA have a stomach foot (snails). o CEPHALOPODA have a head foot (Squids/Octopus). Also have a poisonous beak.
