Big ideas •  The process of evolu3on drives the diversity and unity of life.

•  Biological systems u3lize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow, reproduce and maintain homeostasis.

•  Living systems store, retrieve, transmit and respond to informa3on essen3al to life processes.

•  Biological systems interact, and these systems possess complex proper3es.

1. What are Cnidarians?

3. Examples are:

2.Cnidarians –s3nging celled animals

anemone

hydra

1. What are Cnidarians?

2. Traits of Cnidarians

3. cnidocytes-‐ s3nging cells

4. contain nematocysts (barbs) w/toxin

3. Two cell layers separated by mesoglea

* endoderm/ectoderm

3. Nerve net responds to s3muli

3. Gastrovascular cavity to digest food

3. Radial symmetry

Ac3vity: Dichotomous key of invertebrates

symmetry •  Asymmetrical-‐ no definite shape

•  Radial symmetry-‐ top & boVom but no leW or right sides

•  Bilateral symmetry-‐ head, rear, right & leW sides-‐ can be split down the center

•  Exoskeleton vs. no skeleton vs. endoskeleton

•  appendages: wings, arms, legs, tail

•  Tentacles (are flexible) vs. spines (s3ff)

•  FlaVened body (pancake like) – vs. cylindrical (tube like)
