2 Phylum Mollusca "Next to Arthropoda, the
phylum Mollusca has the most named species in
the animal kingdom -- probably about 50,000
living species, not to mention some 35,000
fossil species discovered to date. The name
Mollusca indicates one of their distinctive
characteristics a soft body."
3Major Characteristics of Phylum Mollusca 1.
Body bilaterally symmetrical (bilateral asymmetry
in some) unsegmented, usually with definite
head 2. Ventral body wall specialized as a
muscular foot, variously modified but used
chiefly for locomotion 3. Soft Dorsal body
wall forms the mantle, which enclosesthe mantle
cavity, is modified into gills or a lung, and
secretes the shell (shell absent in some) 4.
Surface epithelium usually ciliated and bearing
mucous glands and sensory nerve endings
45. Coelom mainly limited to area around heart
6. Complex digestive system rasping organ
(radula) usually present anus usually emptying
into mantle cavity 7. Open circulatory
system (mostly closed in cephalopods) of heart
(usually three-chambered), blood vessels, and
sinuses respiratory pigments in blood 8.
Gaseous exchange by gills, lung, mantle, or body
surface 9. One or two kidneys
(metanephridia) opening into the pericardial
cavity and usually emptying into the mantle
cavity
510. Nervous system of paired ganglia, with nerve
cords and subepidermal plexus ganglia
centralized in nerve ring in gastropods and
cephalopods 11. Sensory organs of touch,
smell, taste, equilibrium, and vision (in
some) eyes highly developed in cephalopods
6Movement
- Foot acts as shovel wedge for clams or as slide
for snails - Squids octopuses move by taking in expelling
water - Oysters mussels are sessile as adults

14Reproduction
- All reproduce sexually
- Most have separate sexes
- Clams external fertilization
- Squid snails internal fertilization then
deposit zygote
15Origin Diversity
- 100,000 species
- 2nd largest phylum
- Have coelom are protosomes
- Classified by
- Shell type
- Foot structure
- Internal body arrangement
16Classes of Mollusks
Class Gastropoda - "Stomach Foot" - The
gastropods are by far the most numerous and
diverse of the mollusks, including about 40,000
living and 15,000 fossil species. They are
usually sluggish, sedentary animals because most
of them have heavy shells and slow locomotor
organs. The shell is always of one piece and may
be coiled or uncoiled.
17Examples snails, limpets, slugs, whelks, sea
slugs
18Class Bivalvia - "Two Valves" - These are the
bivalved molluscs, most of which are sedentary
filter-feeders that depend on ciliary currents
produced by the gills to bring in food materials.
Unlike the gastropods, they have no head, no
radula, and very little cephalization.
19Examples mussels, clams, scallops, oysters,
shipworms
20 Class Cephalopoda - "Head Foot" - The Cephalopoda
are the most complex of the molluscs. All are
marine, and all are active predators. They have a
modified foot that is concentrated in the head
region. It takes the form of a funnel for
expelling water from the mantle cavity. The
anterior margin of the head is drawn out into a
circle or crown of tentacles.
21Examples squids, octopi, nautiluses, cuttlefish
22 Class Polyplacophora - Polyplacophores, or
chitons, are somewhat flattened and have a convex
dorsal surface that bears eight articulating limy
plates, or valves.
23Example chitons
24Biosphere Impact
- BENEFITS-
- Human food
- Huge role in food chains
- Monitor environmental conditions b/c they are
filter feeders - Sea slugs could be source of medicines
25- HARMFUL-
- Snails slugs consume crops
- Marine mollusks destroy wood boots docks
- Zebra Mussel introduced accidentally and has
taken over the Great Lakes b/c they compete w/
other species for food clog water intake pipes
to treatment power plants
26PHYLUM Annelida
27Reproduction
BUT usually sexually most are hermaphroditic
cant fertilize themselves
After being fertilized a cocoon is formed that
houses egg sperm
28Body Cavity
29Segments
30Impact on Biosphere
- Fish food, birds food, frogs food snake food
Essential in plant growth b/c burrows allow water
air to penetrate
Increase nutrients for plants by breaking down
large organic matter

32Nutritional requirement how does it eat?
Crop storage
Gizzard grinds food
Intestine digests food
33Nervous circulatory Systems

solid ventral nerve cord
34(No Transcript)
35Where they live
- Polychaeta- Free or tube marine worms have
parapodia for movement
- Hirudinea leeches (no setae or
parapodia) -freshwater o r moist tropical area
36Important Sturctures or lack of..

- Receptors for light, temperature,
moisture,vibrations, chemicals
- Nephridia rids waste from coelom to outside
- Setae- bristles for movement
37- Lack respiratory diffusion of gases in water
only

42General Characteristics reasons for success
- Segmented bodies fused into regions (head, thorax
abdomen) - jointed specialized appendages
- exoskeleton composed of chitin
- complex muscular system
- ventral nerve cord brain ganaglia clusters
43- Open circulatory system
- Respiratory system (gills for marine arthropods
or tracheal tubes/lungs for terrestrial
arthropods) - can have compound eyes, simple eyes or both
- complex life cycle -- Metamorphosis larvae
different from adult
44Origin
- Trilobites
- now extinct
- no specialized legs
- good fossil records
- Arthropods now have fewer body parts
specialized appendages
45Peripatus -- arthropod or annelid?

diversity. The trunk usually has eight thoracic
and six abdominal somites, each with a pair of
appendages. There are many freshwater and marine
species.Examples Lobsters, crabs, crayfish,
shrimp

remove metabolic waste return water to cells - Exoskeleton
- book lungs - efficient gas exchange w/o excessive
water loss
54Class Meristomata
- Horseshoe crabs - (NOT REALLY!)
- simple compound eyes
- no malpighian tubules
- have book gills -- precursor to book lungs?
- Eat solid food (clams worms,sft shelled clams,
etc.)
55Class Merostomata - "Thigh Mouth" - Horseshoe
crabs are practically unchanged since the
Triassic period, some 225 million years ago. They
have an unsegmented, horseshoe-shaped carapace,
and a broad abdomen, which has a long spinelike
telson. On some of the abdominal appendages book
gills are exposed. Horseshow crabs can swim
awkwardly by means of their abdominal plates and
can walk on their walking legs. They feed at
night on worms and small molluscs and are
harmless to humans.
56Class ArachnidaGeneral Characteristics
- 6 pairs of specialized appendages
- 1 pr chelicerae - fangs
- 1 pr pedipalps - hold food sense organs
- 4 pr walking legs
- Absent or modified appendage on abdomen (ex
spinnerets)
57 58Order SpidersClassified by how the eat ..
- Hunters - strong legs excellent eyesight (2
pair swivel 2 pair peripheral) - Web Weavers - long slender legs, poor eyesight
59- All spiders produce silk for
- movement
- protection
- food wrap
- paralyze or kill w/ fangs secrete enzymes
(poison) that digest liquefy prey
60Class Arachnida - Arachnids are a numerous and
diverse group, with over 50,000 species described
so far. The arachnid tagmata are a cephalothorax
and an abdomen, which may be distinct (as in
spiders) or nearly fused (as in ticks and
mites).Examples Spiders (35,000 species),
scorpions, ticks, mites
61Order Scorpions
- Long segmented abdomen w/ poisonous stinger

63Class Branchiopoda - Branchiopods have reduced
first antennae and second maxillae. Their legs
are flattened and leaflike and are the chief
respiratory organs. The most important and
successful order is the Cladocera, which often
forms a large segment of the freshwater
zooplankton.
64Subphylum UniramiansGeneral Characteristics

- Class Diplopoda
- 2 pr legs per segment
- herbivores
- can be as long as 1/2 meter
- common in houses gardens
67Class Chilopoda - "Lip Feet" - Centipedes are
active predators with a preference for moist
places such as under logs or stones, where they
feed on earthworms, insects, etc. Their bodies
are somewhat flattened dorsoventrally and they
may contain from a few to 177 somites. Each
somite, except the one behind the head and the
last two, bears one pair of appendages.
68Class Diplopoda - "Two Feet" - Millipedes have
cylindrical bodies made up of 25 to 100 segments.
The four thoracic segments bear only one pair of
legs each, but the abdominal segments each have
two pairs. Millipedes are less active than
centipedes and are generally herbivorous, living
on decayed plant and animal matter and sometimes
living plants.
69Insects
- Class Insecta
- 3/4 of all known animal species are insects
- classified by structural differences (mouthparts
of wings) - Three distinct body regions
- 3 pr walking legs 3 pr mouthparts
70- Wings are folded extensions of the exoskeleton
--- (0 wings to 1 pr to 2 pr) - ability to fly gives insects advantage to escape
predators, obtain food, migrate inhabit new
environments
71Class Insecta - The insects are the most numerous
and diverse of all the groups of arthropods.
There are more species of insects than species in
all the other classes of animals combined!!
Insects differ from other arthropods in having
three pairs of legs and usually two pairs of
wings on the thoracic region of the body,
although some have one pair of wings, or none. In
size, insects range from less than 1 mm to 20 cm
in length, the majority being less than 2.5 cm
long. The insect tagmata are the head, thorax,
and abdomen. The head usually bears a pair of
relatively large compound eyes, a pair of
antennae, and usually three ocelli.
72Insect Metamorphosis
- INCOMPLETE - egg ,nymph , adult
- nymphs resemble adult but are very small, lack
wings reproductive organs - nymphs hatch from eggs molt repeatedly
73- COMPLETE - eggs, larvae, pupa in a cocoon, adult
- larvae are catepillars, grubs , maggots (etc.)
- they eat leaves decaying matter
74Insect adaptations
- Behavorial
- communication (flashes of light, sound,
pheromones) - social - for example, bees live in colonies
each have specific jobs
