segmentation bilateral symmetry coelom
C. Arthropods vs Annelids

C. Hearing
1. Tympanum a. This is a flat membrane used for hearing b. It vibrates in response to sound waevs c. They can be located on forelegs, on abdomen, or on thoraxs
spider reproduction
2. In reproduction, a male spider deposits sperm on a small web he has built, picks it up, stores in pedipalps, and them inserts it into the female a. The female lays her eggs in a cocoon spun of spidr silk b. They hatch and molt many times before the reach adult size
ticks
2. Ticks a. These are parasites that feed on blood after attaching themselves to surface of hosts b. They also have disease causing agents and introduce them to hosts when they bite
19. Like annelids, arthropods have
A coelom
II. Segmentation
A. Allows for the efficient and complex movement B. Three main regions: head thorax and abdomen
IV. Joined Appendages
A. Appendages are structures that grow and extend from an animals body B. Functions includes feeding, mating, sensing, walking and swimming C. Joints 1. Joined appendages allow them to have flexible movement and perform functions like mating and feeding
V. Molting
A. Arthropods must shed outer coverings to grow because coverings are made of nonliving materials B. New exoskeletons are made by them C. Process 1. Glands in skin make fluid that soften the old while the new forms underneath 2. As it grows, pressire increases and cracks old 3. Before the new one hardens, blood circulation increases to all parts of body and it puffs up a. Makes new exoskeleton have growing room

II. Respiration
A. Maintaing a certain homeostatic balance of oxygen in body tissues enables animals to have energy B. Gills 1. Most aquetic arthropods have these C. Terrestrial 1. All terrestrial body tissues need to be by airways to obtain oxygen 2. Depend on respiratory systems to carry oxygen to cells 3. Most have tracheal tubes a. These are a system of branching tubes b. They carry oxygen throughout the body 4. SOme have book lungs a. These are saclike pockets with highly folded walls for respiration b. Foldedness increases the surface area of lungs and allow an efficient exchange of gases 5. BOth the tracheal and book lungs open to the outside of the body in openings called spiracles
IV. Excretion

I. Feeding and Digestion
A. Mandibles 1. These are appendages in mouth that can be adapted for biting or chewing B. Other potential mouthpaers includes: feathery strainers, stabbing needles, cutting swords, or sucking strase C. They can be herbivores, carnivores, filter feeders, omnivores, or parasites D. Digestion 1. THey have complete one way digestion system with mouth gut, and anus 2. Also various glands that produce digestive enzymes
III. Horseshoe Crabs

The chelicerae, pedipalps, and the next 3 pairs of legs are used for walking and getting food from the bottom of the sea D. They feed on annelids, mollusks, and other invertebrates, which they capture with their chelicerae E. The posterior appendages are modified with lead like plates at tips which can be used for digging or swimming F. Reproduction 1. THey come to shore to reproduce at high tide 2. The female burrows into the sand to lay her eggs 3. A male follows behind and adds sperm before the female covers her eggs with sand 4. Youth larvae hatch after being warmed by sun
III. Circulation
A. Most rely on respiratory system to circulate oxygen B. They do rely on circulatory system to transport nutrients and remove wastes C. Closed circulatory system 1. Blood maintains homeostasis in tissues by delivering nutrients and removing wastes
VII. Reproduction
A. Most reproduce sexually B. Seperate sexes 1. But few are hermaphrodites and undergo cross fertilization C. They have their eggs but they don't care for their offspring
VI. Movement
A. They are generally quick, active B. The mucles in an arthropod limb are attached to the inner surface of the exoskeleton on both sides of the joint C. The strength of muscle contration depends on the rate at which nerve implulses stimulate muscles
III. Exoskeleton
A. They have hard exoskeletons B. Provides a framework for support C. Protects soft body tiddue D. Slows water loss in animals that live on land E. Provides place for muscular attachment F. Chitin 1. WHat exoskeletons is made of G. Exoskeletons may be hard or flexible in parts 1. Flexible provides for moveable joints between body segments and within appendages H. Limit to exoskeleton hardness 1. Thin in small arthropods because it bears the pull of tiny muscles 2. Thicker in larger anthropods because it bears the pull of larger msucles
spider feeding
B. Spiders 1. Carnivores a. SOme hunt while others catch in webs 1. Silk is made from a fluid protein secreted by glands spun into silk by spinnerets, which are located at the end of a spiders abdomen 2. They are only capable of constructing certain kinds of webs, which allows them to do if efficiently time after time 3. After capturing in web, they wrap in silken cocoon until they want to eat it b. Digestion begins externally, where digestion enzymes are secreted onto prey c. Then they digest internally
