Animal Diversity 2: Diversity of Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca, Flashcards

Terms : Hide Images
67042575Define: NematocystsAn adaptation of the Cnidaria for feeding and defense. it functions like miniature harpoons. it can pierce a shell and releases toxins.0
67042576CoralsAre a Cnidaria. live in large colonies, and secrete calcium carbonate. when old polyps die, new ones build on top. Corals get much of their energy from "zooxanthellae" - symbiotic autotrophic protists.1
67042577Reproduction of cnideriaAsexual reproduction: budding off from polyps. Sexual reproduction: fertizlied eggs give rise to mobile, planktonic forms.2
67042578Protostomes consist of what phyla?Lophotrocozoans - [which consist of platyhelminthes, annelida, mollusca]3
67044571Platyhelminthes Body PlanAcoelomate. Lack circulatory, respiratory system, absorb O2 thru body wall. Slow movement.4
67044572Platyhelminthes FeedingSome free-living, many parasites. Some of the parasites with complex life cycles several different forms and more than one host.5
67044573Platyhelminthes reproductionSome asexual, some sexual, most hermaphrodites.6
67044574Annelida examples!Earthworms, polychaete worms, leeches7
67044575Annelida body planTrue Coelom, segmentation of body and coelom. Head with brain, respiration across body wall.8
67044576Annelida FeedingEarthworms - decomposer - eats dead material, Polychate worms are parasites, scavengers, Leeches - blood. (mostly)9
67044577Mollusca Diversity~110,000 species - Octopus, nudbranches - marine sea slugs.10
67044578Key Adaptations of MolluscaThe Mantle and the Radulla11
67044579The MantleSheet of skin. secretes shell forms gills for gas exchange, and in cephalopods forms muscular cavity that forcibly ejects water for locomotion.12
67044580the Radullaa hardened tongue. probably evolved for scraping algae off rocks, and in different species has been modified for punturing, slicing, and manipulating food.13
67044581Feeding niches of MolluscaMostly grazers or predacious14
67044582Cephalopods are masters of disguiseHighly developed nervous system, big brains, Chromatophores- allow sudden color changes for disguise, confusion and courtship. Cuttlefish with electric skin.15

947583486clastschunks or broken fragments of rock with a standardized clast size scale1
947583487matrixfiner clasts (like sand) in a rock2
947583488cementglue (chemical) that holds the sand and larger clasts together as a rock3
947583489clastic texturerocks containing clasts of existing rocks that were transported and deposited; grains are not interlocked4
947583490crystalline texturegrains are interlocked; results from precipitation of mineral crystals; most igneous rocks exhibit this texture5
947583491sorting and roundnessvariation in grain size; well sorted = little variation; sharpness or smoothness of the corners of grains6
947583492provenanceall aspects of the sources from which a sedimentary rock is derived7
947583493diagenesisall changes that occur to sedimentary rocks from time of deposition until time of examination; including texture, composition, and other physical properties8
947583494detritalrocks consisting of clasts of pre-existing rocks and minerals that have been transported and deposited as fragments; termed terrigenous because they represent eroded material9
947583495siliciclasticterrigenous material mainly consisting of quartz and other silica-rich minerals10
947583496chemical (sed. rock)rocks that result from precipitation of minerals as dissolved constituents reach saturation; examples are evaporites such as anhydrite, gypsum, and halite11
947583497What are 2 common factors which can control the color of a sedimentary rock's cement?Carbon-rich (function of oxygen) creates a black color. Iron-rich creates a reddish to orange color.12
947583498The terms clastic and detrital are used interchangeably. What is the technical difference between the two?Detrital refers to material eroded from the Earth and material (coasts) that are transported away from the weathering site.13
947583499Will a rock's coasts or cement provide more information about its provenance? How about its history of diagenesis?The clasts will provide more information about the provenance. Type of rock of the clasts will provide info about the composition, location and relief. Cement will provide information about its diagenesis. Type of cement will clue towards what changes have occurred.14
947583500Detrital is to clastic as chemical is to ____crystalline15
947583501Would a very dark color give the most information about a rock's provenance, depositional environment, or its diagenesis? How about a pink color imparted by the grains?Dark color would give info about a rock's EOD, signifying a lack of oxygen during deposition. Pink color indicates provenance, that it was derived from an orthoclase/granitic source.16
947583502Describe 3 pieces of info that might be inferred from examining a hand sample of a sedimentary rock.Source area, transportation, physical setting (EOD)17

855360077Chem StratFormation dependent, thus similar to lithostratigraphy44
855360078Stronium Isotope datingSr is found less often the Ca in limestones Sr has two isotopes, 86 and 87 due to weatering and oceanic crust production. The ratios have changed over time (86 constant), giving a known curve, giving several possibilities Only possible with unaltered calcite producing fossils, aragonite alters over time to calcite45
855360079Oxygen Isotope Stratigraphy2 Oxy isotopes O16, O18, which fractionate based on temp, higher temps, more O18 in atmosphere, thus less in ocean water In ocean sediments with high O18, the earth was colder, reverse with ice cores Globally Syncronized46

855455991Production/Accumulation CyclesCycles can influence what seds are deposited, or how much, or how diluted they are60
855455992Redox CyclesChanging amount of oxygen in ocean waters can affect the coloration of rocks, from red (abundance of oxygen), to drab or white (normal conditions) to black (lack of oxygen). The variation of the amount of oxygen can be absolute (a changing ocean circulation) or simply brought on by a changing water depth caused by a sea-level variation. This would simply move the minimum oxygen depth from one location to another.61
