QUESTION 3
Which of the following statements are true regarding sponges?
Sponges live in marine or freshwater environments.
All sponges are photosynthetic.
Adult sponges are non-motile
Sponges do not have true tissues.
QUESTION 4
Which of the following statements are true regarding arthropods.
Similar to the earthworm, an arthropod has a body composed of repeated segments
Arthropods have an exoskeleton
Arthropods have a coelom
Arachnids, crustaceans and insects are all arthropods
QUESTION 5
What are the four basic types of tissues found in animals?
tracheid
muscle tissue
connective tissue
epithelial tissue
mesophyll
nerve tissue
3.Answer is Sponges do not have true tissues
Sponges are the simplest form of multi-cellular animals. They are very diverse and come in a large variety of colours, shapes and structural complexities. They range in heights of 1-200cm and in diameters of 1-150cm. They have partially differentiated tissues, and not true tissues. Sponges don’t have internal organs. They don’t have muscles, a nervous system, or a circulatory system. Their walls are lined with many small pores called ostia that allow water flow into the sponge.
4. Answer is Arachnids ,Crustaceans,Insects are all Arthropods
An “arthropod” is an invertebrate animal that has an exoskeleton, a segmented body, and jointed appendages. The following families of organisms are all examples of arthropods:
a)Insects such as ants, dragonflies, and bees
b)Arachnids such as spiders and scorpions
c)Myriapods (a term which means “many feet”) such as centipedes and milipedes
d)Crustaceans such as crabs, lobsters, and shrimp
Arthropods have a reduced coelom and an open circulatory system. Arthropods have segmented bodies that enable specialization of body structures such as appendages.
5.epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, nervous tissue.
There are four types of tissues found in animals:epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue.
Epithelial Tissue- Covers body surfaces and lines body cavities
connective tissue- Binds and Supports body parts
muscle tissue-Enables movement of structures within the body and movement of the entire person / animal
nervous tissue.-Enables responses to stimuli and coordinates bodily functions
