Animals that lack a backbone

Invertebrates

100

"to shed an old outer covering so that it can be replaced with a new one"

Molt

100

What benefits do earthworms give the plants in the soil that they inhabit

they mix the soil, recycle nutrients and bring up more minerals

100

What is a spider that has a bite that can be, but rarely is, fatal to humans?

Black Widow or Brown Recluse

100

If you count the cephalothorax as one body segment, how many major segments does an arthropod with a cephalothorax have?

Two

200


What type of symmetry does this have?

Spherical

200

A body covering, typically made of chitin, that provides support and protection

Exoskeleton

200

Name at least 4 parts of the earthworm that we discussed last week

Ganglia

Pharynx

aortic arches

esophagus

dorsal blood vessel

intestine

seminal vesicle

ovary

oviduct

gizzard

ventral nerve cord

oviduct

seminal receptacles

200

What are the stages of complete metamorphosis?

egg, larva, pupa, adult
200

If an arthropod did not have any predators living in it's ecosystem, would it still need an exoskeleton?

Yes it needs it for the support of the body.

300

An organism with this symmetry can only be cut into two identical halves by a single longitudinal cut along the center-right and left halves.  

Bilateral

300
These are divided into these three segments-

Thorax, Abdomen, and Cephalothorax

Arthropods

300

which Phylum are earthworms a part of

Annelida

300

List at least 2 characteristics of Arachnids

Four pairs of walking legs

A cephalothorax instead of separate head and thorax

Usually four pairs four simple eyes

No antennae

Respiration done through organs known as "book lungs"

300

If an arthropod could not taste but the rest of the nervous system is operational, what sensory organ is malfunctioning?

antennae

400

Posessing both male and female reproductive organs. An Earthworm is this.  

Hermaphroditic.  

400

An eye made of many lenses, each with a very limited scope.

Compound Eye

400

If an earthworm's mouth is fully functional but it cannot ingest soil, what organ is malfunctioning

Pharynx

400

What are the functions of tube feet?

locomotion, respiration, circulation

400

A crayfish loses its claw in a fight. What happens?

It grows back

500

How are Fungi different from animals

Animals ingest their food while fungi absorb their food after external digestion

500

List at least 4 parts of the crayfish:

Antennae

Antennules

Cephalothorax

abdomen

telson

uropods

swimmerets

carapace

chelipeds

eye

walking legs

500

What process will stop if the earthworm's cuticle dries up

Respiration

500

What are two differences between "centipedes" and "millipedes"?

Millipedes have many more legs 

Each of millipedes body segment has 2 pairs of legs

Millipedes' bodies are rounded, rather than flat

Millipedes' antennae are shorter

Millipedes don't have venomous claws

Centipedes are fierce predators, while millipedes are docile

500

Why do we say that arthropods are constantly bleeding internally?

They have an open circulatory system, and blood flows directly onto the tissue from the arteries
