Kingdom Animalia - multicell, heterotrophic, no cell wall, w/ cytoskeleton. GKpid protein aligns mitotic spindle โ correct division. Collagen in ECM = structural protein. Cell jxns = communication. Most have NS + muscle tissue. Sexual repro. via blastula โ gastrula โ embryo. Some โ metamorph. Hox genes - dev. patterning (A/P axis), all = 18S rRNA similarity. Ancestors = choanoflagellates. Symmetry + Body Plan - Asymmetry (sponges), spherical (volvox), radial (jellies: oral/aboral), bilateral (cephalization โ head, sensory โ 1 end, suited 4 movement). Radial = sac-like gut (1 opening), Bilat. = tube-in-tube (mouth/anus, specialized regions) Germ Layers - Diploblastic = ecto + endo (mesoglea in btwn). Triploblastic = +meso (โ muscle, CT, circ. sys, etc.) Coelom Acoelomate = no cavity. Pseudocoelom = false cavity (1 side mesoderm, ex. Nematoda). Eucoelom = true (meso surrounds gut, anchor via mesentery, allows complexity). Segmentation Repeating units = metamerism (ex. annelids, arthropods, chordates), allows specialization. Dev. Patterns Protostomes: blastopore โ mouth, spiral, determinate cleavage, schizocoely (meso splits โ coelom).
