TRAITS SUPPORTING EACH CLADE (** plesiomorphic- a primitive state, not unique to clade):
b) radial symmetry** c) monociliated cells** d) radial, indeterminate cleavage e) blastula stage larva f) diplosome** g) type IV collagen b) diploblastic organization c) gastrula stage d) blind gut (no anus) e) true gonads f) true nervous system with synapses) b) cephalization c) triploblastic organization (extensive mesoderm) d) organ-system level of organization e) protonephridia |
b) mesoderm from single (mesentoblast) cell c) fate of first germ cell set at 5th cleavage d) mouth (and sometimes anus) from blastopore e) sheets of subepidermal muscles f) multiciliated cells A: anus present (i.e., complete gut) b) trochophore-like larva with apical cilia c) larvae swim with compound cilia b) mesoderm from epithelial cells c) coelom via enterocoely d) blastopore yields anus e) tripartite coelom & body plan f) monociliated cells** |
