Pseudocoelomates There are 9 different phyla that are classified as pseudocoelomates. We are only covering 2 phyla: Nematoda Rotifera
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics Organ level of organization Tissues are organized to for organs which are used to accomplish physiological functions Triploblastic 3 Germ Layers 3 Tissue Layers endoderm gastrodermis mesoderm ectoderm epidermis
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics “false” body cavity ectoderm pseudocoelom mesoderm Gut endoderm the pseudocoelom is lined by mesoderm on ONE side only
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics the pseudocoelom ectoderm • is a closed, fluid filled cavity • contains digestive, excretory, and reproductive structures • the fluid within acts as a circulatory system • the fluid within acts as a hydrostatic skeleton against which the muscles work
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics Bilateral Symmetry • with anterior and posterior ends Cephalization • concentration of sensory organs in the head of the animal
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics Digestive System • complete (they have an anus!) • some regional specialization Circulation System • no system (or organs) • performed by the pseudocoelom fluid
Pseudocoelomate Characteristics Eutely • each individual of a species has the same # of cells • growth occurs by cells getting bigger rather than dividing
Phylum Nematoda the roundworms
Physiology Life Style – Free-living – parasitic Digestion – complete system (have an anus) – some regional specialization (e. g. an esophagus)
Physiology Skeletal system - fluid in pseudocoelom acts as a hydrostatic skeleton Cuticle – covers body (secreted by epidermis + composed mostly of collagen) – functions as a primitive external skeleton
Physiology Movement – longitudinal muscles ONLY (results in “whiplike” motion) – No external/internal cilia even sperm don’t have flagella http: //www. devgen. com/devpage/largeimage/wild. html
Physiology Nervous system - cephalization, cerebral ganglia - dorsal and ventral nerve cords Circulatory system – No system (no organs) – performed by fluid in pseudocoelom Excretion – Renette glands
Physiology Reproduction Sexual – usually dioecious – often the sexes are sexually dimorphic (males and females look different) Males often have a spicule at the end of their tail used to insert their sperm into the female
Physiology Reproduction Sexual – usually dioecious – often the sexes are sexually dimorphic – internal fertilization – males have ameboid sperm
Ecology • There are >12, 000 species that are found in almost all habitats (marine, freshwater, underground, inside plants and animals, etc…). • They are also incredibly abundant. For example: • a m² of soil may contain >4 million nematodes • a decomposing apple may contain >90, 000 nematodes of a single species
Ecology • Many nematodes are important parasites of both plants and animals. parasite of soybean plants parasite of tomato plants
Parasites Eye worm (Loa loa): • transmitted by fly bites • larvae go through bloodstream • adults live in subcutaneous tissue
Parasites Intestinal roundworm (Ascaris): • transmitted by contaminated food • adults live in small intestine • it’s estimated that 20% of world’s population is infected (~1. 3 billion people) this intestine was completely blocked
Parasites Guinea worm (Dracunculus medinensis): • transmitted by infected copepods in drinking water • larvae move into the body cavity • female adult migrates to the subcutaneous tissue, causes an ulcer/blister, and releases eggs through hole when host comes in contact with water
Parasites Guinea worm (Dracunculus medinensis): • traditionally removed by winding the worm around a matchstick over the course of several days • this may be the basis for the Caduceus symbol used in the medical field
Parasites Trichinella spiralis: • causes Trichinosis • transmitted by eating undercooked pork • juveniles encyst within host muscle cells juvenile Host muscle cell
Parasites Heartworms (Dinofilaria immitis):
Ecology • The study of the model nematode C. elegans has resulted in important discoveries in genetics and development.
Phylum Rotifera the rotifers
The “wheel” animals
Physiology Feeding – have a “crown” of cilia called a corona – the corona creates a current to bring food into the mouth
Physiology Feeding – have a specialized feeding structure called the: mastax-trophi complex modified jaws within the mastax a modified muscular pharynx
Looking down into the corona….
Physiology Some of the trophi (jaws):
Physiology Life Style – Free-living Digestion – complete system (have an anus) – some regional specialization (e. g. mastax-trophi complex)
Physiology Skeletal system - fluid in pseudocoelom acts as a hydrostatic skeleton Movement – the corona – pedal glands (produce adhesive), as well as foot and toe (spurs) for attachment to substrate
Physiology Nervous system - cephalization, cerebral ganglia - dorsal and ventral nerve cords Circulatory system – no system (no organs) – performed by fluid in pseudocoelom Excretion – protonephridia and flame cells – cloacal bladder (collects wastes)
Physiology Reproduction Sexual - complex life cycle with different types of eggs - usually dioecious but in some groups, males are absent (parthenogenesis) - Parthenogenesis: unisexual reproduction where females produce offspring from unfertilized eggs (virgin birth)
Physiology • 2 types of eggs: amictic & mictic Amictic eggs • diploid (mitotically produced) • can’t be fertilized • develop into diploid, amictic females
Physiology Mictic eggs • • haploid (meiotically produced) produced after some sort of environmental stimulus (eg. high density, change in temperature) Ø if unfertilized, develop into haploid males Ø if fertilized, secrete a thick, protective shell until the environment is favorable again, after which they develop into diploid, amictic females
Ecology • There are ~1500 species. Although they are found mainly in freshwater habitats, there a few marine rotifer species and a couple of species are even found in mosses! • Because of the reduced role of males in reproduction, most males are incapable of feeding and do not even have a digestive tract (they are just there for sperm delivery!). • Males have never been recorded in Bdelloid rotifers. This means they haven’t had sex in millions of years!
Here are some of the other pseudocoelomate phyla
