Concept explainers
To explain: The archenteron.
Introduction: The process of gastrulation leads to the development of a structure called archenteron. Various types of structures and germ layers are formed during the process of gastrulation, which results in important morphogenesis of organism at the embryonic stage of their development.
To determine: Whether archenteron is formed in sea stars.
Introduction: The process of gastrulation leads to the development of a structure called archenteron. Archenteron can be defined as a primary type of gut that is formed during the gastrulation process of development of zygote. It is also known as the digestive tube and develops inside the endoderm and mesoderm layers of an animal.
To determine: Whether archenteron is formed in amphibians.

- What is the notochord?How is this structure formed?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about Sea urchin blastula formation and fate map? a) ectoderm that develops into the larval skin and neurons, is regularly produced by the vegetal half of the embryo. b) an1 layer generates cells that can enter either the ectodermal or endodermal organs of the larva. c) veg2 layer forms the endoderm, coelom (internal mesodermal body wall), and the non- skeletogenic mesenchyme. d) small micromeres differentiate into the PGCS e) large micromeres differentiate into the secondary mesenchyme cellsarrow_forwardIs there a respiratory pigment in the annelid blood?arrow_forward
- What are four synapomorphies and four symplesiomorphies of gnathostomes?arrow_forwardWhat are the molecules being secreted by the organizer in a regional fashion such that the first cells involuting through the blastopore lip (the endomesoderm) induce head structures, whereas the next portion of involuting mesoderm (notochord) produces trunk and tail structures?arrow_forwardWhat’s a notochord?arrow_forward
- What is the difference between hox genes and segment polarity genes in drosphalia?arrow_forwardThe cnidaria, jelly fish, are the first organisms to exhibit? a) an ectoderm layer b) endoderm layer with digestive cells that release enzymes in to a digestive structure c) ectoderm cells that specialize to become cells which react to a stimulus and produce movement d) a water-based internal environment (prebiotic ocean) between the ectoderm and the endoderm e) all are true for cnidariaarrow_forwardWhich of the following exhibits embryonic development by the protostome pathway? A) Mammals B) Sharks C) Amphibians D) Arthropoda E) Cnideria Explain whyarrow_forward
- What is a nauplius? What is the difference between direct and indirect development in Crustacea?arrow_forwardWhat are the distinct characteristics of the reduviid bug, tse-tse fly and sandfly?arrow_forwardDistinguish two mechanisms by which flatworms supply yolk for their embryos. Which system is evolutionarily ancestral for flatworms and which one is derived?arrow_forward
