The thermal limits for most functions in animal cells range from approximately

They are related to annelids.

Bryozoans, annelids, and mollusks are grouped as lophotrochozoans. Which characteristic do they have in common?

They have a ciliated trochophore.

Which characteristic of bryozoans would indicate that they feed by sweeping a feeding organ through the water?

They have lophophores.

They have mesoderm.

How do nematocysts help protect some cnidarians?

They inject toxins into prey.

Which feature is an important characteristic of connective tissues?

Which trait is not found in early deuterostomes, including the extinct yunnanozoan (shown)?

Vertebral column

Characteristics unique to animals include

a nervous system.

Caenorhabditis elegans is a model organism in the laboratories of geneticists and developmental biologists. It matures in three days, has a fixed number of body cells, and is

a soil-inhabiting nematode.

Parasitic flukes _______, and thus most of the body can be devoted to reproduction.

acquire all of their nutrients from their host

Ecdysozoans

all have a cuticle.

The countercurrent heat exchanger of some large, rapidly swimming "hot" fish

allows heat to be maintained in the muscles.

An example of neoteny (retention of juvenile characters into the adult form) is

aquatic habits of adult salamanders.

Crocodilians, birds, and dinosaurs are grouped as archosaurs because they

are all carnivorous.

Because they _______, lizards and snakes will position themselves in the sun to warm their bodies.

are ectotherms

All oligochaetes

are hermaphrodites.

Macrophages engulf cellular debris, microbes, cancer cells, and foreign substances, so it is advantageous for them to be large, but their size is limited by the amount of _______ they have as they grow in size.

cell membrane surface area

Arthropods were able to transition from aquatic to terrestrial environments due to a _______.

chitinous exoskeleton

If an animal exhibits radial cleavage, it may not necessarily be classified as a ______ but would still be classified as a bilaterian.

deuterostome

The cuticle is relatively thin and flexible in

ecdysozoans that exchange gases and water across the body surface.

If you find that a tissue in an organ is secreting mucus and absorbing nutrients, it is most likely _______ tissue.

epithelial

The four basic tissue types are

epithelial, muscle, connective, and nervous.

A pseudocoelomate animal lacks a

fluid-filled body cavity lined on the outside and inside with mesoderm.

An aquatic animal with a foot and mantle possesses _______ for gas exchange.

gills

Members of Homo neanderthalensis

had a range that overlapped with that of Homo sapiens.

A member of the protostome group of animals

has a mouth derived from the blastopore.

Annelids

have a coelom.

Animals with a coelom have an advantage over other triploblastic animals because they

have better control over movement than other triploblasts.

Fungi, such as mushrooms, can be distinguished from animals because only animals

have internal digestion.

Chondrichthyans and ray-finned fishes both

have paired fins.

The characteristic that best defines placozoans as animals is that they

have two surface layers with a layer of contractile fibers in between them.

Hemichordates differ from echinoderms in that

hemichordates have bodies composed of three parts: proboscis, collar, and trunk; echinoderms do not.

If you are out in subfreezing weather for an hour without protective clothing, it is unlikely that you will die, but if you put a culture of your own nerve cells out in the same weather, they will die. The main reason for this difference is that

homeostatic regulation of your internal body temperature enables you to survive exposure to extreme temperatures.

The thermoregulatory functions of the mammalian hypothalamus have been studied by implanting probes to heat or cool it. If its hypothalamus is cooled, an animal will

increase metabolic heat production.

Positive feedback

increases deviation from a set point.

Stratified squamous epithelium

is made up of several layers of cells, the outer layers of which are flattened.

The bilaterian group of animals

is monophyletic and bilaterally symmetrical.

A soft-shell crab is one that has just _______.

molted

When compared with the thermal limits for life, the thermal tolerance of a given species is usually

narrower.

Marsupials differ from eutherians in that

some marsupial species can glide but none can fly, whereas some eutherian species can fly.

In regulatory systems, negative feedback

stimulates a return toward the set point.
