[Pages:44]Invertebrate
Invertebrates are animals without backbones.
SECTION 1
What is an animal?
Main Idea Animals are classified into groups with similar characteristics.
Animals
SECTION 2
Sponges, Cnidarians, Flatworms, and Roundworms
Main Idea Sponges,
cnidarians, flatworms,
and roundworms have
basic body systems.
SECTION 3
Mollusks and Segmented Worms
Main Idea Specialized body
structures allow animals to
live in varied environments.
SECTION 4
Arthropods and Echinoderms
Main Idea Arthropods
and echinoderms are
extremely diverse groups
of animals.
Underwater Rhy thmic Dancers
Corals and anemones sway with ocean currents. Other animals, like the lemon-peel nudibranch, move in ways that animals that have internal skeletons cannot move. They belong to a group of animals called invertebrates--animals without backbones.
Science Journal Describe similarities and differences between you and the nudibranch.

Start-Up Activities
How are animals organized?
Scientists have identified at least 1.5 million different kinds of animals. In the following lab, you will learn about organizing animals by building a bulletin board display.
1. Write the names of different groups of animals on large envelopes and attach them to a bulletin board.
2. Choose an animal group to study. Make an information card about each animal with its picture on one side and characteristics on the other side.
3. Place your finished cards inside the appropriate envelope.
4. Select an envelope from the bulletin board for a different group of animals. Using the information on the cards, sort the animals into groups.
5. Think Critically What common characteristics do these animals have? What characteristics did you use to classify them into smaller groups? Record your answers in your Science Journal.

Invertebrates Make the following Foldable to compare and contrast the characteristics of water and land invertebrates.
STEP 1 Fold one sheet of paper lengthwise.
STEP 2 Fold into thirds.
STEP 3 Unfold and draw overlapping ovals. Cut the top sheet along the folds.
STEP 4 Label the ovals as shown.
Water Invertebrates

Land Invertebrates
Construct a Venn Diagram As you read this chapter, list the characteristics unique to water invertebrates under the left tab, those unique to land invertebrates under the right tab, and those characteristics common to both under the middle tab.

Learn It! What should you do if you find a word you don't
know or understand? Here are some suggested strategies:
1. Use context clues (from the sentence or the paragraph) to help you define it.
2. Look for prefixes, suffixes, or root words that you already know. 3. Write it down and ask for help with the meaning. 4. Guess at its meaning. 5. Look it up in the glossary or a dictionary.
Practice It! Look at the word filter feeder in the follow-
ing passage. See how context clues can help you understand its meaning.
Context Clue Filter feeders get food by filtering it from water.
Context Clue Water carries food and oxygen into filter feeders' bodies.
Context Clue Filter feeders have specialized cells that digest food.
Most species of sponges live in the ocean, but some live in freshwater. Sponge bodies are made of two layers of cells. All sponges are filter feeders. They filter food out of the water that flows through their bodies. Microscopic organisms and oxygen are carried with water into the central cavity through pores of the sponge. The inner surface of the central cavity is lined with collar cells. Thin, whiplike structures, called flagella, extend from the collar cells and keep the water moving through the sponge. Other specialized cells digest the food, carry nutrients to all parts of the sponge, and remove wastes.

Apply It! Make a vocabulary
bookmark with a strip of paper. As you read, keep track of words you do not know or want to learn more about.

After you read the chapter, look back to this page to see if you've changed your mind about any of the statements. ? If any of your answers changed, explain why. ? Change any false statements into true statements. ? Use your revised statements as a study guide.
Before You Read A or D
Statement
Print out a worksheet of this page at red.
1 Most animals can be divided into similar halves. 2 Sponges are plants. 3 Cnidarians are animals with hollow bodies. 4 All worms are classified into one group. 5 All mollusks have shells. 6 Earthworms breathe through their skin. 7 Some worms live in the oceans. 8 Millipedes have a million legs. 9 Echinoderms have a water-filled vascular
system. 10 Crabs are arthropods.

498 B
What is an animal?
Identify the characteristics of animals.
Differentiate between vertebrates and invertebrates.
Explain how the symmetry of animals differs.
All animals have characteristics in common.
Review Vocabulary
organelle: structure in the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell that can act as a storage site, process energy, move materials, or manufacture substances
New Vocabulary

?? invertebrate
Figure 1 Animals come in
a variety of shapes and sizes.
Animal Characteristics
If you asked ten people for a characteristic common to all animals, you might get ten different answers or a few repeated answers. Look at the animals in Figure 1. What are their common characteristics? What makes an animal an animal?
1. Animals are many-celled organisms that are made of different kinds of cells. These cells might digest food, get rid of wastes, help in reproduction, or be part of systems that have these functions.
2. Most animal cells have a nucleus and organelles. The nucleus and many organelles are surrounded by a membrane. This type of cell is called a eukaryotic (yew ker ee AH tihk) cell.
3. Animals cannot make their own food. Some animals eat plants to supply their energy needs. Some animals eat other animals, and some eat both plants and animals.
4. Animals digest their food. Large food particles are broken down into smaller substances that their cells can use.
5. Most animals can move from place to place. They move to find food, shelter, and mates, and to escape from predators.
Monarch butterflies in North America migrate up to 5,000 km each year.
The lion's mane jellyfish can be found in the cold, arctic water and the warm water off the coasts of Florida and Mexico. Their tentacles can be up to 30 m long.
