Sponges, Cnidarians and
Platyhelminthes
BIOL 1407
Invertebrates
• Animals without
backbones
• Most animals
Sponges
• Porifera ≠ clade
• Two possible
phyla:
– Silicea (most
sponges)
– Calcarea
•

Characteristics of Sponges
• Cellular organization
• Radial or no
symmetry

• Filter feeders
• Aquatic
• Sessile

Cell Types
•
•
•
•
Choanocytes
Amoebocytes
Epidermal cells
Porocytes (in
some)
Choanoflagellates and
Choanocytes
Skeleton
• Spicules
– Calcium carbonate
– Silica
• Spongin
– Collagen protein

Jellies and Cubozoans
Characteristics of Cnidarians
• Radial symmetry
• Diploblastic
– Epidermis
– Gastrodermis
– Mesoglea
• Gastrovascular Cavity
• Tentacles with
cnidocytes
Two Body Forms
Exchange Processes
• Body wall  Two
layers of cells
• Cell transport occurs
at both layers

Water Balance
Ion Balance
Waste Disposal
Gas Exchange
Digestion
• Two forms
– Intracellular
– Extracellular
• Extracellular digestion  major
evolutionary advance
• Allows animals to eat things larger than
their cells

Intracellular vs. Extracellular Digestion
Transport
• As cnidarian moves,
water moves through
GVC
• GVC serves as
transport system

Platyhelminthes
• Free-living Flatworms
– Planarians
– Marine Flatworms
• Flukes
• Tapeworms

Fluke
Tapeworm
Characteristics of Platyhelminths
•
•
•
•
Bilateral Symmetry
Triploblastic
Acoelomate
Gastrovascular
Cavity
– Extensive branching
• Flat body

Exchange Processes
• Body is flat and thin
 ↑ Surface Area
• Highly branched GVC
 ↑ Surface Area
• Cell transport occurs
at both places
