1The largest group of marine anthropods is the class [blank_start]crustacean[blank_end].
- Acrustacean
2Crustaceans are the most numerous animals in the [blank_start]oceans[blank_end] but some crustaceans live in [blank_start]fresh water.[blank_end]
- Aoceans
- Bfresh water.
3Most crustaceans are free-living, but some are [blank_start]sessile[blank_end] and a few are even [blank_start]parasitic[blank_end].
- Asessile
- Bparasitic
4Like other Anthropods, Crustaceans have an [blank_start]exoskeleton[blank_end] which is made of [blank_start]chitin[blank_end] and [blank_start]calcium[blank_end].
- Aexoskeleton
- Bchitin
- Ccalcium
5The exoskeleton provides protect and gives [blank_start]support[blank_end].
- Asupport
6This segmented exoskeleton creates [blank_start]joints[blank_end], allowing the crustacean to move its body and appendages.
- Ajoints
7The body is divided into three parts, a [blank_start]head[blank_end], [blank_start]thorax[blank_end], and [blank_start]abdomen[blank_end]. Usually the head and thorax are fused to become the [blank_start]cephalothorax[blank_end].
- Ahead
- Bthorax
- Cabdomen
- Dcephalothorax
8The head carries two pairs of [blank_start]appendages[blank_end] which are used for sensing and [blank_start]feeding[blank_end].
- Aappendages
- Bfeeding
9The eyes and three pairs of [blank_start]appendages[blank_end] complete the head.
- Aappendages
10Most crustaceans have a [blank_start]carapace[blank_end], or shell that covers the thorax area.
- Acarapace
11Located on the cephalothorax are a pair of legs that end in claws. These appendages are known as [blank_start]chelipeds[blank_end]. They are used for grabbing and holding food.
- Achelipeds
12The [blank_start]four[blank_end] pair of walking legs are connected to the cephalothorax.
- Afour
13The abdomen contains swimming legs called [blank_start]swimmerets[blank_end] and a fan shaped tail containing the [blank_start]uropod[blank_end] and [blank_start]telson[blank_end].
- Aswimmerets
- Buropod
- Ctelson
14The crustaceans have an [blank_start]open[blank_end] circulatory system and no [blank_start]heart[blank_end].
- Aopen
- Bheart
15The nervous system is very simple. There is a [blank_start]ventral[blank_end] nerve cord that ends in a ganglion at the [blank_start]anterior[blank_end] end.
- Aventral
- Banterior
16The animal kingdom is divided into two groups. The [blank_start]vertebrates[blank_end] and the [blank_start]invertebrates[blank_end].
- Avertebrates
- Binvertebrates
17The [blank_start]vertebrates[blank_end] are animals with [blank_start]backbones[blank_end].
- Avertebrates
- Bbackbones
18The [blank_start]invertebrates[blank_end] are animals without [blank_start]backbones[blank_end].
- Ainvertebrates
- Bbackbones
19The Phylum [blank_start]Porifera[blank_end] contains members who have the simplest body structure of any animal.
- APorifera
20The [blank_start]sponge[blank_end] belongs to the Phylum Porifera.
- Asponge
21The word Porifera means [blank_start]pore bearing[blank_end].
- Apore bearing
22Sponges have 3 body layers. The outer layer in the [blank_start]ectoderm[blank_end], the inner layer is the [blank_start]endoderm[blank_end], and the layer in between the two layers is the [blank_start]mesophyll[blank_end].
- Aectoderm
- Bendoderm
- Cmesophyll
23Water carrying food, nutrients, and oxygen enters the sponge through the [blank_start]incurrent pores[blank_end].
- Aincurrent pores
24The water that enters the sponge leaves through the [blank_start]osculum[blank_end].
- Aosculum
25In the ectoderm of the sponge are structures that aid in structure and provide defense for the sponge called [blank_start]spicules[blank_end].
- Aspicules
26The sponge reproduces asexually by [blank_start]budding[blank_end] an [blank_start]regeneration[blank_end] and sexually by releasing an [blank_start]egg[blank_end] and [blank_start]sperm[blank_end].
- Abudding
- Bregeneration
- Cegg
- Dsperm
27A [blank_start]squid[blank_end] has an internal shell.
- Asquid
28The squid and octopus belong to the class [blank_start]cephalopoda[blank_end] which means "head-footed"
- Acephalopoda
29All members of the Class Cephalopoda have a well defined head and foot that is divided into [blank_start]tentacles[blank_end].
- Atentacles
30The [blank_start]octopus[blank_end] has lost its internal shell.
- Aoctopus
31The defense mechanism of the squid is [blank_start]ink[blank_end].
- Aink
32The Class [blank_start]Bivalvia[blank_end] makes up the second largest class of Mollusca.
- ABivalvia
33Bivalves have [blank_start]two[blank_end] shells made of [blank_start]calcium carbonate[blank_end] which is secreted by the animal's mantle or body wall.
- Atwo
- Bcalcium carbonate
34The shells are connected to the bivalves body by a [blank_start]ligament[blank_end].
- Aligament
35The shells of the bivalves are held closed by [blank_start]adductor muscles[blank_end].
- Aadductor muscles
36Many bivalves have a [blank_start]muscular foot[blank_end] which is used for digging in the sand and a [blank_start]sipho[blank_end]n used for breathing.
- Amuscular foot
- Bsipho
37Mollusca with only one shell are known as [blank_start]univalves[blank_end]. They belong to the Class Gastropoda which is the [blank_start]largest[blank_end] class in the Phylum Mollusca.
- Aunivalves
- Blargest
38All of the Gastropods have one external [blank_start]shell[blank_end], except for the [blank_start]slug[blank_end] which lives on land.
- Ashell
- Bslug
39The body plan of all animals is referred to as [blank_start]symmetry[blank_end].
- Asymmetry
40There are 3 body plans: [blank_start]bilateral[blank_end], [blank_start]radial[blank_end], and [blank_start]asymmetric[blank_end].
- Abilateral
- Bradial
- Casymmetric
41If an animal's body can be divided down the center and form two equal images the symmetry is [blank_start]bilateral[blank_end].
- Abilateral
42An organism with a body that does not show definite symmetry is known as [blank_start]asymmetric[blank_end].
- Aasymmetric
43The starfish and sea anemone display [blank_start]radial[blank_end] symmetry. Therefore their body can be divided several ways and mirror images can be seen.
- Aradial
44Radially symmetric animals do not have a dorsal and ventral they have an [blank_start]oral[blank_end] and [blank_start]aboral[blank_end] side.
- Aoral
- Baboral
45The aboral side is the side of the [blank_start]anus[blank_end] and the oral side is the side of the [blank_start]mouth[blank_end].
- Aanus
- Bmouth
46Directional movement is called [blank_start]tropism[blank_end].
- Atropism
47Tropism is an orientation [blank_start]toward[blank_end] or [blank_start]away[blank_end] from a [blank_start]stimulus[blank_end].
- Atoward
- Baway
- Cstimulus
48The orientation or response toward the stimulus is [blank_start]positive[blank_end] tropism.
- Apositive
49The orientation or response in the opposite direction of the stimulus is [blank_start]negative[blank_end] tropism.
- Anegative
50The process of plants bending toward the light is called [blank_start]phototropism[blank_end].
- Aphototropism
51The [blank_start]roots[blank_end] display positive geotropism.
- Aroots
52Light, heat, moisture, gravity, water, and electricity can all act as a [blank_start]stimulus[blank_end].
- Astimulus
