Sponges • • • Sponges are sessile with porous bodies and choanocytes The germ layers of sponges are not really tissues because the cells are relatively unspecialized. Sponges lack nerves or muscles. Most sponges are marine and some live in fresh water. The body of a sponge consists of two cell layers separated by a gelatinous region, the mesohyl. Most sponges are hermaphrodites , with each individual producing both sperm and eggs.

• • • The body of a simple sponge resembles a sac perforated with holes. Nearly all sponges are suspension feeders, collecting food particles from water. Three are 3 types: 1 - Ascon type 2 -Sycon type 3 - Leucon type

• The body plan has two Parts: the sessile polyp and the floating medusa. • The polyps adhere to the substratum by the aboral end and extend their tentacles, waiting for prey. • Medusas (also called jellies) are flattened, mouth-down. • They are carnivores that use tentacles arranged in a ring around the mouth to capture prey and push the food into the gastrovascular chamber for digestion. • Muscles and nerves exist in their simplest forms.

Hydra • • They have a relatively simple body construction. The basic body plan is a sac with a central digestive compartment, the gastrovascular cavity. Hydra exist only in the polyp form. When environmental conditions are favorable, a hydra reproduces asexually by budding • When condition deteriorate hydra can reproduce sexually Forming resistant zygote. • Hydra has testes at upper part and ovary at the lower part of the body

Phylum: Platyhelminthes • • They are acoelomates with gastrovascular cavities • They also include many parasitic species, such as the flukes and tapeworms. • They are living in marine, freshwater, and damp terrestrial habitats. Flatworms are triploblastic, with a middle embryonic tissue layer, mesoderm, which contributes to more complex organs and organs systems and to true muscle tissue.

Fasciola gigantica • They called liver-flukes because they live in the bile ducts of cattle and other mammals leaf-like shape • usually have two suckers, an anterior or oral sucker which encloses the mouth, and a posterior or ventral. • The male genital system consists of two testes lying approximately in the centre of the body branched and each gives off a vas deferens. • The female genital system consists of a single branched ovary.

• This class comprises the tapeworms, all of which are endoparasites and lack an alimentary canal throughout life. • They have a great power of reproduction, both asexual and sexual. • Infection acquired by the ingestion of raw or undercooked meat of infected animals. Although many species exist, but the two species which infect man are T. saginata and T. solium External Features: Tatnia saginata has four large muscular suckers; no mouth or hooks exist. Scolex of T. solium is relatively smaller and has a rounded prominent rostellum with a double row of chitinous hooks
