TOPIC 1: Biodiversity of
Animals
 
Key features of
Body Plans of Animals
 
Do you remember the 
5 kingdoms 
that all living
organisms are classified into?
They are:
1.
Monera
2.
Protista
3.
Fungi
4.
Plantae
5.
Animalia
Organisms
 
are 
classified
 according to certain
common characteristics
, for example all the
prokaryotes belong to the Kingdom Monera
.
 
However we find that 
all the organisms 
in the
kingdom are not identical
.
They do have 
some differences
.
Therefore within 
each kingdom 
there are 
many
large groups
.
These 
large
 
groups
 
are called 
phyla
.  (singular
phylum)
The organisms that belong to a 
single phylum
share some common characteristics
.
But the 
organisms
 that 
belong to each phylum
are 
not identical as well
.
 
The next slide shows you all the phyla of the
animal kingdom.
 
This year we will only look at the body plan of 6
phyla.
These are:
1.
Porifera
2.
Cnidara
3.
Platyhelminthes
4.
Annelida
5.
Arthropoda
6.
Chordata.
 
Morphology and development 
are the features
that are often used to 
classify organisms
 
into
groups
.
Morphology 
refers to the  
external and internal
structural characteristics
.
The 
morphological and developmental
characteristics
 that are used for 
classification
 are
as follows:
1.
Symmetry and cephalisation.
2.
Number of tissue layers.
3.
Coelom and blood systems.
 
4.
Number of openings in the gut.
The 
combination
 of a 
set of morphological and
developmental characteristics
 
into a
functioning organisms
 
is referred to an
organism’s 
body plan
.
The 
body plan of organisms 
can be used to
determine its level 
of 
complexity
.
Or we can say to determine its level of
organization
.
 
Symmetry
 is when
an 
organism
 can be
divided into 2 identical
halves
.
Some organisms 
do not
have a regular shape
.
Therefore these
organisms 
do not have
any symmetry
.
We call them
asymmetrical
,
like the sponges shown
alongside.
 
Animals that have a
circular or radial body
plan show radial
symmetry
.
Radial
symmetry
 
is when
the 
animal
 can be 
cut
along any vertical plane
through the centre to
form two identical halves
,
for example the sea
anemone shown
alongside.
 
Animals that show 
radial symmetry 
have 
no
heads or tails
.
In other words they 
do not 
have  
posterior or
anterior ends
.
Remember we mentioned earlier that their 
body
parts have a circular arrangement
, this means
that all their 
body parts even the sense organs
are evenly distributed through out the body
.
This allows the animal to 
sense danger and food
from any direction
.
This means that they will be able to 
react to
danger coming from any direction
.
 
Radial symmetry 
is very 
important to
animals that do not move
.
Since it 
allows the organism to sense food
and danger from any direction 
and 
to react
to food or danger from any direction
.
These animals that 
do not move
 
are called
sessile
.
Radial symmetry 
is also important to the
planktonic animals 
that 
drift or swim
weakly in the water
.
 
Some 
animals can be cut into
2 identical halves in the
central longitudinal plane.
This is called 
bi-lateral
symmetry
.
This means that the 
animal
can be cut from the top of
the ventral surface to the
bottom of the dorsal surface
into 2 identical halves
.
Animals in the  phylum
Platyhelminthes, Annelida,
Arthropoda and Chordata
show bi-lateral symmetry.
 
Animals that show bi-lateral symmetry 
have 2
important developments 
over other organisms.
The 
sense organs 
are 
accumulated at one end of
the body
.
The end that has the 
sense organs 
is called the
anterior end
 and the opposite end is called the
posterior end
.
This means that the 
anterior end is different from
the posterior end
.
So the animal now has a 
definite anterior and
posterior end
.
 
The 
accumulation of sense organs 
at 
one end 
of
the body is referred to as 
cephalisation
.
Cephalisation
 lead to the 
development
 of a
central nervous system
.
The second development that led to bi-lateral is
the 
differentiation of the upper and lower
surfaces
.
The 
upper surface 
is the 
ventral surface
.
The 
lower surface 
is called the 
dorsal surface
.
Different dorsal and ventral surfaces 
is known as
dorso-ventral differentiation
.
 
The presence of 
dorso-ventral differentiation 
and
cephalisation
 meant that these organisms have
definite left and right sides
.
Organisms
 with 
bi-lateral symmetry 
are able to
crawl, burrow, swim and fly.
This type of movement needs to be 
co-ordinated
by a complex nervous system.
 
Name and explain the development that lead to
bi-lateral symmetry.
 
The two developments that led to bi-lateral
symmetry were:
1.
The accumulation of sense organs at one end of
the body.  This is known as as cephalisation.
2.
The differentiation between the dorsal and
ventral surfaces.  This is called dorso-ventral
differentiation.
 
Here we are talking about the 
number of tissue
layers
 
that develop in the 
embryonic stage
.
Remember that the 
zygote
 that is formed during
sexual reproduction 
is made up of 
1 cell only
.
The 
zygote
 needs to 
develop
 into a 
multicellular
organism
.
Once it becomes 
multicellular 
then the 
cells need
to differentiate
 so that the 
different organs and
the tissues 
needed by the body can 
develop
.
 
But 
before differentiation 
occurs
the 
cells
 need to 
become
arranged into layers
.
These layers are called the 
germ
layers
.
Sometimes in some organisms the
cells arrange themselves into 
two
layers.
These 
2 layers 
are an 
outer layer
called the 
ectoderm
 and an 
inner
layer
 
called the 
endoderm
.
Animals that have only 
2 germ
layers 
are called 
diploblastic.
Can you name some diploblastic
animals?
 
gut
 
Diploblastic
organism
 
They are sea anemones, blue bottles and jelly fish.
 
In some animals there
are 
3 germ layers
.
The ectoderm and
endoderm are
separated by a 
middle
layer called the
mesoderm
.
Animals who have 
3
germ layers 
are called
triploblastic.
All 
bi-laterally
symmetrical animals
are 
triploblastic
.
 
Triploblastic animal
 
Ectoderm
 gives rise to the 
outer covering of the
organism
.
In some cases it 
also gives rise 
to the 
central
nervous system
.
The 
endoderm
 gives rise to the 
gut lining and all
the organs that arise from the gut
.
The 
mesoderm
 gives rise to the 
muscles and most
of the organs
 that are found 
between
 the
digestive tract and the outer body covering
.
 
Diploblastic animals 
do
not have body cavities
.
They 
only have a gut 
as
shown in the picture
alongside.
The 
gut 
is 
not a body
cavity
.
A 
body cavity 
is a 
fluid
space
 found 
between
the digestive tract and
the ectoderm
.
This 
body cavity 
is called
a 
coelom
.
 
GUT
 
There are 
2 types 
of
coeloms
.
These are 
true coeloms
and 
pseudocoeloms
.
A 
true coelom 
is a 
body
cavity 
that is 
surrounded
by mesoderm 
as shown in
the diagram alongside
.
Some triploblastic animals
such as vertebrates,
annelids and arthropods
have coeloms.
Animals that have 
true
coeloms
 are called
coelomates
.
 
However some
triploblastic animals
do not have true
coeloms
.
These animals have
body cavities 
that are
lined by mesoderm
on one side only
.
This type of body
cavity is called a
pseudocoelom
.
 
Animals that 
do not
have either type of
coelom are called
acoelomates
.
The animals found in
the phylum
Platyhelminthes 
are
examples of
acoelmates
.
 
FUNCTIONS OF A BODY CAVITY
:
The 
body cavity creates space 
for the
development of internal organs
.
It 
separates
 the 
gut wall from the body wall 
so
that each wall can 
function independently
.
The 
fluid
 found within the 
body cavity 
acts as a
skeleton
. This type of skeleton where the 
muscles
contract and relax against a fluid
 is called a
hydrostatic skeleton
.
The fluid also act as a 
cushion for the organs
,
preventing injury
.
 
The 
separation of the gut wall from the body wall
also means that the 
distance between the two
walls has increased
.
This means that 
diffusion is no longer 
an 
effective
means of transport
.
It also means that 
excretory waste can no longer
simply diffuse out of the body
.
 
These problems were solved in the following way:
1.
A 
transport system 
was developed to
transport gases 
from the 
body wall to the gut
wall
 because some animals (earthworm) used
the 
skin as a gas exchange surface
.  The
transport system is also used to 
transport food
from the gut wall to the body wall
.
2.
An 
excretory system 
was developed to
get 
rid of nitrogenous waste
.
 
BLIND GUT: What is it?
Some animals have a 
gut with only 
1
 opening
.
This 
opening
 is usually called the 
mouth
.
Food enters and undigested food leaves 
the body
through the same opening
.
This type of gut is called a 
blind gut
.
Cnidarians and some free living Platyhelminthes
are some examples of animals with a blind gut.
 
BLIND GUT:  Disadvantages:
Since the 
digested and undigested food enters
and leaves through the same opening
, there is a
mixing of the digested and undigested food
.
This occurs because the 
digested and undigested
food moves in 2 directions
.
This means that the 
gut cannot become
specialized
.
That is the 
gut cannot have separate regions for
separate functions
.
 
THROUGH GUT:  What is it?
Some animals have a 
gut with 
2 
openings
.
These 
2 openings 
are called a 
mouth and anus
.
The 
food enters 
the animal through the 
mouth
and 
undigested food leaves 
the body through the
anus
.
This means that 
food travels 
in 
1 direction only
, it
enters through the mouth and leaves through the
anus.
This type of gut is called a 
through gut
.
 
THROUGH GUT:  Advantages:
Since the 
food moves in only 1 direction
specialization of the gut can occur
.
The 
different regions become adapted
(specialized) 
for  
different functions
.
This allows for 
digestion to occur all the time
,
even when ingestion and egesting occurs
.
This lead to 
greater efficiency
.

  1. LIFE SCIENCES GRADE 11 CAPS STRUCTURED, CLEAR, PRACTICAL - HELPING TEACHERS UNLOCK THE POWER OF NCS KNOWLEDGE AREA: Diversity, change and continuity TOPIC 1: Biodiversity of Animals Key features of Body Plans of Animals

  2. SUMMARY OF PRESENTATION The term phylum Introduction to the Animal Kingdom Key features of the body plans of animals Symmetry and Cephalisation Number of Tissue Layers in Embryo Coeloms and blood systems Type of Gut based on Number of Openings

  3. PHYLUM: Do you remember the 5 kingdoms that all living organisms are classified into? They are: Monera Protista Fungi Plantae Animalia Organisms are classified according to certain common characteristics, for example all the prokaryotes belong to the Kingdom Monera. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

  4. PHYLUM: However we find that all the organisms in the kingdom are not identical. They do have some differences. Therefore within each kingdom there are many large groups. These large groups are called phyla. (singular phylum) The organisms that belong to a single phylum share some common characteristics. But the organisms that belong to each phylum are not identical as well.

  5. INTRODUCTION TO THE ANIMAL KINGDOM The next slide shows you all the phyla of the animal kingdom.

  6. INTRODUCTION TO THE ANIMAL KINGDOM Phylum Porifera Phylum Cnidara Phylum Invertebrates Platyhelminthes Phylum Nematoda Kingdom Animalia Phylum Annelida Phylum Mollsuca Phylum Arthropoda Phylum Echinoderma Phylum Chordata Vertebrate

  7. INTRODUCTION TO THE ANIMAL KINGDOM This year we will only look at the body plan of 6 phyla. These are: Porifera Cnidara Platyhelminthes Annelida Arthropoda Chordata. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

  8. KEY FEATURES IN RESPECT OF BODY PLANS OF ANIMALS. Morphology and development are the features that are often used to classify organisms into groups. Morphology refers to the external and internal structural characteristics. The morphological and developmental characteristics that are used for classification are as follows: Symmetry and cephalisation. Number of tissue layers. Coelom and blood systems. 1. 2. 3.

  9. KEY FEATURES IN RESPECT OF BODY PLANS OF ANIMALS. Number of openings in the gut. The combination of a set of morphological and developmental characteristics into a functioning organisms is referred to an organism s body plan. The body plan of organisms can be used to determine its level of complexity. Or we can say to determine its level of organization. 4.

  10. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Symmetry is when an organism can be divided into 2 identical halves. Some organisms do not have a regular shape. Therefore these organisms do not have any symmetry. We call them asymmetrical, like the sponges shown alongside.

  11. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Animals that have a circular or radial body plan show radial symmetry. Radial symmetry is when the animal can be cut along any vertical plane through the centre to form two identical halves, for example the sea anemone shown alongside.

  12. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Animals that show radial symmetry have no heads or tails. In other words they do not have posterior or anterior ends. Remember we mentioned earlier that their body parts have a circular arrangement, this means that all their body parts even the sense organs are evenly distributed through out the body. This allows the animal to sense danger and food from any direction. This means that they will be able to react to danger coming from any direction.

  13. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Radial symmetry is very important to animals that do not move. Since it allows the organism to sense food and danger from any direction and to react to food or danger from any direction. These animals that do not move are called sessile. Radial symmetry is also important to the planktonic animals that drift or swim weakly in the water.

  14. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Some animals can be cut into 2 identical halves in the central longitudinal plane. This is called bi-lateral symmetry. This means that the animal can be cut from the top of the ventral surface to the bottom of the dorsal surface into 2 identical halves. Animals in the phylum Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Arthropoda and Chordata show bi-lateral symmetry.

  15. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION Animals that show bi-lateral symmetry have 2 important developments over other organisms. The sense organs are accumulated at one end of the body. The end that has the sense organs is called the anterior end and the opposite end is called the posterior end. This means that the anterior end is different from the posterior end. So the animal now has a definite anterior and posterior end.

  16. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION The accumulation of sense organs at one end of the body is referred to as cephalisation. Cephalisation lead to the development of a central nervous system. The second development that led to bi-lateral is the differentiation of the upper and lower surfaces. The upper surface is the ventral surface. The lower surface is called the dorsal surface. Different dorsal and ventral surfaces is known as dorso-ventral differentiation.

  17. SYMMETRY AND CEPHALISATION The presence of dorso-ventral differentiation and cephalisation meant that these organisms have definite left and right sides. Organisms with bi-lateral symmetry are able to crawl, burrow, swim and fly. This type of movement needs to be co-ordinated by a complex nervous system.

  18. SOMETHING FOR YOU TO DO: Name and explain the development that lead to bi-lateral symmetry.

  19. SOLUTION: The two developments that led to bi-lateral symmetry were: The accumulation of sense organs at one end of the body. This is known as as cephalisation. The differentiation between the dorsal and ventral surfaces. This is called dorso-ventral differentiation. 1. 2.

  20. NUMBER OF TISSUE LAYERS: Here we are talking about the number of tissue layers that develop in the embryonic stage. Remember that the zygote that is formed during sexual reproduction is made up of 1 cell only. The zygote needs to develop into a multicellular organism. Once it becomes multicellular then the cells need to differentiate so that the different organs and the tissues needed by the body can develop.

  21. NUMBER OF TISSUE LAYERS: But before differentiation occurs the cells need to become arranged into layers. These layers are called the germ layers. Sometimes in some organisms the cells arrange themselves into two layers. gut These 2 layers are an outer layer called the ectoderm and an inner layer called the endoderm. Diploblastic organism Animals that have only 2 germ layers are called diploblastic. Can you name some diploblastic animals?

  22. SOLUTION: They are sea anemones, blue bottles and jelly fish.

  23. NUMBER OF TISSUE LAYERS: In some animals there are 3 germ layers. The ectoderm and endoderm are separated by a middle layer called the mesoderm. Animals who have 3 germ layers are called triploblastic. All bi-laterally symmetrical animals are triploblastic. Triploblastic animal

  24. NUMBER OF TISSUE LAYERS: Ectoderm gives rise to the outer covering of the organism. In some cases it also gives rise to the central nervous system. The endoderm gives rise to the gut lining and all the organs that arise from the gut. The mesoderm gives rise to the muscles and most of the organs that are found between the digestive tract and the outer body covering.

  25. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS Diploblastic animals do not have body cavities. They only have a gut as shown in the picture alongside. The gut is not a body cavity. A body cavity is a fluid space found between the digestive tract and the ectoderm. This body cavity is called a coelom. GUT

  26. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS There are 2 types of coeloms. These are true coeloms and pseudocoeloms. A true coelom is a body cavity that is surrounded by mesoderm as shown in the diagram alongside. Some triploblastic animals such as vertebrates, annelids and arthropods have coeloms. Animals that have true coeloms are called coelomates.

  27. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS However some triploblastic animals do not have true coeloms. These animals have body cavities that are lined by mesoderm on one side only. This type of body cavity is called a pseudocoelom.

  28. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS Animals that do not have either type of coelom are called acoelomates. The animals found in the phylum Platyhelminthes are examples of acoelmates.

  29. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS FUNCTIONS OF A BODY CAVITY: The body cavity creates space for the development of internal organs. It separates the gut wall from the body wall so that each wall can function independently. The fluid found within the body cavity acts as a skeleton. This type of skeleton where the muscles contract and relax against a fluid is called a hydrostatic skeleton. The fluid also act as a cushion for the organs, preventing injury.

  30. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS The separation of the gut wall from the body wall also means that the distance between the two walls has increased. This means that diffusion is no longer an effective means of transport. It also means that excretory waste can no longer simply diffuse out of the body.

  31. COELOM AND BLOOD SYSTEMS These problems were solved in the following way: A transport system was developed to transport gases from the body wall to the gut wall because some animals (earthworm) used the skin as a gas exchange surface. The transport system is also used to transport food from the gut wall to the body wall. 1. An excretory system was developed to get rid of nitrogenous waste. 2.

  32. NUMBER OF OPENINGS IN THE GUT BLIND GUT: What is it? Some animals have a gut with only 1 opening. This opening is usually called the mouth. Food enters and undigested food leaves the body through the same opening. This type of gut is called a blind gut. Cnidarians and some free living Platyhelminthes are some examples of animals with a blind gut.

  33. NUMBER OF OPENINGS IN THE GUT BLIND GUT: Disadvantages: Since the digested and undigested food enters and leaves through the same opening, there is a mixing of the digested and undigested food. This occurs because the digested and undigested food moves in 2 directions. This means that the gut cannot become specialized. That is the gut cannot have separate regions for separate functions.

  34. NUMBER OF OPENINGS IN THE GUT THROUGH GUT: What is it? Some animals have a gut with 2 openings. These 2 openings are called a mouth and anus. The food enters the animal through the mouth and undigested food leaves the body through the anus. This means that food travels in 1 direction only, it enters through the mouth and leaves through the anus. This type of gut is called a through gut.

  35. NUMBER OF OPENINGS IN THE GUT THROUGH GUT: Advantages: Since the food moves in only 1 direction specialization of the gut can occur. The different regions become adapted (specialized) for different functions. This allows for digestion to occur all the time, even when ingestion and egesting occurs. This lead to greater efficiency.

  36. TERMINOLOGY: Phyla: Large groups of organisms with similar characteristics within the kingdom. Morphology: refers to the external and internal structural characteristics. Body plan: refers to the combination of a set of morphological and developmental characteristics into a functioning whole. Symmetry: is when an organism can be divided into 2 identical halves. Asymmetrical: refers to an organism with no symmetry.

  37. TERMINOLOGY: Radial symmetry: is when the animal can be cut along any vertical plane through the centre to form two identical halves. Sessile: these are animals that do not move. Bi-lateral symmetry : refers to animals can be cut into 2 identical halves in the central longitudinal plane. Cephalisation: refers to the accumulation of sense organs at one end of the body. Dorso-ventral differentiation: is when the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the organism are different from each other. Diploblastic animals: are animals that have only 2 germ layers.

  38. TERMINOLOGY: Triploblastic animals : are those who have 3 germ layers. True coelom: is a body cavity that is surrounded by mesoderm Pseudo-coelom: refers to body cavities that are lined by mesoderm on one side only. Acoelomate: are animals that do not have coelom. Hydrostatic skeleton: is a type of skeleton where the muscles contract and relax against a fluid. Blind gut: is a gut with only 1 opening Through gut: is a gut with 2 openings
