Animal Development and
Phylogeny
 Animals:
Are multicellular
Are consumers
Are eukaryotic
Are motile at some point in their
development
 Reproduce sexually (some are
parthenogenic)
 Develop from embryos
 Have a variety of evolutionary advances

Symmetry and Body Plans
 2 main body plans: invertebrate and vertebrate
 Of the 2, invertebrate has the most variation
 Some are asymmetric
 Those which have symmetry, exhibit 1 of2 types :
 Radial-may have top and bottom (oral and aboral
sides), but can pass a plane through the body in any
direction and make 2 equal, identical parts
 Bilateral-have dorsal and ventral as well as posterior
and anterior ends. May exhibit cephalization. Can
pass a plane through the body in only one place to
make 2 equal, identical parts

Why Symmetry?
 In general, the most primitive
organisms are asymmetric, slightly
more advanced are radially
symmetric, and the most advanced
are bilaterally symmetric

The Animal Family Tree
 The most primitive animals are conglomerations of cells
with little specialization and no true tissues
 Slightly more advanced animals have cells organized into
distinct tissues, but no organ systems or body cavity


Diploblastic organisms have only 2 tissue layers (cnidarians
and ctenophorans)
Triploblastic organisms have 3 tissue layers (bilaterally
symmetric organisms)
 The next group has organ systems, but still no body
cavity (acoelomates)
 Still more advanced organisms develop a body cavity
which is unlined (pseudocoelomates)
 The most advanced organisms develop a body cavity
lined in mesoderm (coelomates)


In protostomes, coelom forms in mesoderm at the sides of
the archenteron (primordial digestive tube)
In deuterostomes, coelom forms in the archenteron wall

Family Tree Continued
 The coelomates are further divided
into two groups:
 Protostomes-”proto”=first,
“stome”=mouth, form from spiral
cleavage
 Deuterostomes-”deutero”=second,
“stome”=mouth, form from radial
cleavage
 Groups are based on the fate of the
Blastopore during gastrulation

A word about Germ layers
 “Germ” layers refers to the 3 layers of
tissues in most animals. The layers are
present at gastrulation during embryonic
development
 Ectoderm is the outermost layer of cells. It
gives rise to the nervous system, skin, hair
and nails
 Mesoderm is the middle layer of cells and is
the most versitile. It becomes the
skeleton, muscles, inner layer of skin,
visceral lining, fatty tissues, and circulatory
system
 Endoderm is the innermost layer of cells. It
gives rise to the gut and organs associated
with digestion and excretion
Why a coelom?
 The most advanced group of
organisms have a coelom. What’s its
significance?
 In order for a body cavity to be
considered a coelom, it must be lined
in mesoderm.
 Mesoderm sections off parts of the body
 This leads to segmentation, a great
evolutionary advance. Why?

About Animal Classification
 As before, new molecular data continues to change
our views on how animals are grouped into phyla.
The bilaterally symmetric animals are particularly
messy to classify
 Our understanding of Hox genes has changed our
views on animal embryology
 There are some points of agreement with respect to
classification:
 All animals share a common ancestor
 Sponges are the base of the animals family tree
 Eumetazoa is a clade of animals with true tissues
(cnidaria and ctenophora, formerly coelenterata)
 Most animal phyla belong to the Bilateria clade
 Chordates and some other phyla belong to the clade
Deuterostomia
Major Invertebrate Phyla
 Sponges were formerly called “Porifera” and are
organisms that have the following characteristics:
 Suspension feeding (capturing food from the water as
it travels through the body
 Pores on the outer surface pull in water and send it
out through the spongocoel and it’s main opening,
the osculum
 All are hermaphroditic
 Have a few specialized cells but no tissues:
 Choanocytes-collar cells that are flagellated for feeding
 Amoebocytes-mobile cells that have pseudopods and
carry nutrients around the body
 These are now split into 2 phyla:
 Calcarea
 Silicea
Figure 32-26
Pseudoceratina crassa
Eumetazoans

This is a clade, consisting of 2 major phyla of diploblastic
organisms:
 Cnidaria (Includes: jellyfish, hydra, sea anemones, etc)






Radially symmetrical
Tissue layers (2 distinct-epidermis, gastrodermis)-mesoglea in
between (jelly)
2 forms-medusa (mouth down, free-swimming), and polyp (mouth
up, sessile)
Stinging nematocysts for defense and predation (inside the
cnidocytes)
1st organisms with a nervous system (primitive-nerve net, no
central control)
No matter which shape the organism takes, it’s internal cavity is
the gastrovascular cavity
Food enters the mouth and broken down. Nutrients from the food
are absorbed by the surrounding cells and wastes are expelled
from the mouth (2-way digestive tract)
Ctenophora (Comb Jellies)



Look like jellyfish, but move via the 8 rows of cilia on their bodies
No cnidocytes/nematocysts, instead use colloblast (specialized
mucous cells) secretions to catch and hold onto prey
Actually have a nervous control structure called the Apical Organ
at one end of the body
