What You’ll Learn
You will compare and contrast the adaptations of echinoderms.
You will distinguish the features of chordates by examining invertebrate chordates.
• Compare similarities and differences among the classes of echinoderms.
Section Objectives:
• Interpret the evidence biologists have for determining that echinoderms are close relatives of chordates.
• Echinoderms move by means of hundreds of hydraulic, suction-cup-tipped appendages and have skin covered with tiny, jawlike pincers.
• Echinoderms are found in all the oceans of the world.
What is an echinoderm?What is an echinoderm?
• If you were to examine the skin of several different echinoderms, you would find that they all have a hard, spiny,or bumpy endoskeleton covered by a thin epidermis.
Echinoderms have endoskeletonsEchinoderms have endoskeletons
• Sea stars, sometimes called starfishes, may not appear spiny at first glance, but a close look reveals that their long, tapering arms, called rays, are covered with short, rounded spines.
Echinoderms have endoskeletonsEchinoderms have endoskeletons
• The endoskeleton of all echinoderms is made primarily of calcium carbonate, the compound that makes up limestone.
• Some of the spines found on sea stars and sea urchins have become modified into pincerlike appendages called pedicellariae (PEH dih sih LAHR ee ay).

• An echinoderm uses its jawlike pedicellariae for protection and for cleaning the surface of its body.
Pedicellariae
Echinoderms have radial symmetryEchinoderms have radial symmetry• You may remember that radial symmetry is
an advantage to animals that are stationary or move slowly.
• Radial symmetry enables these animals to sense potential food, predators, and other aspects of their environment from all directions.
The water vascular systemThe water vascular system
• The water vascular system is a hydraulic system that operates under water pressure.
• Water enters and leaves the water vascular system of a sea star through the madreporite (mah druh POHR ite), a sievelike, disk-shaped opening on the upper surface of the echinoderm’s body.
The water vascular systemThe water vascular system
• The underside of a sea star has tube feet that run along a groove on the underside of each ray.
The water vascular systemThe water vascular system
• Tube feet are hollow, thin-walled tubes that end in a suction cup.
• Tube feet look somewhat like miniature droppers.
• The round, muscular structure called the ampulla (AM pew lah) works something like the bulb of a dropper.
The water vascular systemThe water vascular system• Each tube foot
works independently of the others, and the animal moves along slowly by alternately pushing out and pulling in its tube feet.
Ampullae
The water vascular systemThe water vascular system
• Tube feet also function in gas exchange and excretion. Gases are exchanged and wastes are eliminated by diffusion through the thin walls of the tube feet.
Echinoderms have varied nutritionEchinoderms have varied nutrition
• All echinoderms have a mouth, stomach, and intestines, but their methods of obtaining food vary.
• Sea stars are carnivorous and prey on worms or on mollusks such as clams.
Echinoderms have varied nutritionEchinoderms have varied nutrition
• Most sea urchins are herbivores and graze on algae.
• Brittle stars, sea lilies, and sea cucumbers feed on dead and decaying matter that drifts down to the ocean floor.
Echinoderms have a simple nervous systemEchinoderms have a simple nervous system
• Echinoderms have no head or brain, but they do have a central nerve ring that surrounds the mouth.
Ring canal
Echinoderms have a simple nervous systemEchinoderms have a simple nervous system
• Nerves extend from the nerve ring down each ray.
• Each radial nerve then branches into a nerve net that provides sensory information to the animal.
• Echinoderms have cells that detect light and touch, but most do not have sensory organs.
Echinoderms have a simple nervous systemEchinoderms have a simple nervous system
• Sea stars are an exception. A sea star’s body consists of long, tapering rays that extend from the animal’s central disk.
• A sensory organ known as an eyespot and consisting of a cluster of light-detecting cells is located at the tip of each arm, on the underside.
Echinoderms have a simple nervous systemEchinoderms have a simple nervous system
• Eyespots enable sea stars to detect the intensity of light.
• Sea stars also have chemical receptors on their tube feet.
Echinoderms have bilaterally symmetrical larvaeEchinoderms have bilaterally symmetrical larvae
• If you examine the larval stages of echinoderms, you will find that they have bilateral symmetry.
• Through metamorphosis, the free-swimming larvae make dramatic changes in both body parts and in symmetry.
Echinoderms are deuterostomesEchinoderms are deuterostomes
• Echinoderms are deuterostomes.
• This pattern of development indicates a close relationship to chordates, which are also deuterostomes.
• Approximately 6000 species of echinoderms exist today.
• About one-fourth of these species are in the class Asteroidea (AS tuh ROY dee uh), to which the sea stars belong.
Diversity of EchinodermsDiversity of Echinoderms
Diversity of EchinodermsDiversity of Echinoderms• The five other classes of living echinodems
are Ophiuroidea (OH fee uh ROY dee uh), the brittle stars; Echinoidea (eh kihn OY dee uh), the sea urchins and sand dollars.
• Holothuroidea (HOH loh thuh ROY dee uh), the sea cucumbers; Crinoidea (cry NOY dee uh), the sea lilies and feather stars; and Concentricycloidea (kon sen tri sy CLOY dee uh), the sea daisies.

Brittle starsBrittle stars
• Brittle stars are extremely fragile.
• This adaptation helps the brittle star survive an attack by a predator.
• While the predator is busy with the broken off ray, the brittle star can escape. A new ray will regenerate.
Brittle starsBrittle stars
• Brittle stars propel themselves with the snake like, slithering motion of their flexible rays.
• They use their tube feet to pass particles of food along the rays and into the mouth in the central disk.
Sea urchins and sand dollarsSea urchins and sand dollars
• Sea urchins and sand dollars are globe or disk-shaped animals covered with spines; they do not have rays.
• A living sand dollar is covered with minute, hair-like spines that are lost when the animal dies.
• A sand dollar has tube feet that protrude from the petal-like markings on its upper surface.
Sea urchins and sand dollarsSea urchins and sand dollars
• These tube feet are modified into gills and are used for respiration.
• Tube feet on the animal’s bottom surface aid in bringing food particles to the mouth.
Sea urchins and sand dollarsSea urchins and sand dollars
• Sea urchins look like living pincushions, bristling with long, usually pointed spines.
• Sea urchins have long, slender tube feet that, along with the spines, aid the animal in locomotion.
Sea cucumbersSea cucumbers
• Sea cucumbers are so called because of their vegetable-like appearance.
• Their leathery covering allows them flexibility as they move along the ocean floor.
Sea cucumbersSea cucumbers
• When sea cucumbers are threatened, they may expel a tangled, sticky mass of tubes through the anus, or they may rupture, releasing some internal organs that are regenerated in a few weeks.
• Sea cucumbers reproduce by shedding eggs and sperm into the water, where fertilization occurs.
Sea lilies and feather starsSea lilies and feather stars
• Sea lilies and feather stars resemble plants in some ways.
• Sea lilies are the only sessile echinoderms.
• Feather stars are sessile only in larval form. The adult feather star uses its feathery arms to swim from place to place.
Sea daisiesSea daisies
• Sea daisies are flat, disk-shaped animals less than 1 cm in diameter.
• Their tube feet are located around the edge of the disk rather than along radial lines, as in other echinoderms.
Origins of EchinodermsOrigins of Echinoderms
• The earliest echinoderms may have been bilaterally symmetrical as adults, and probably were attached to the ocean floor by stalks.
• Another view of the earliest echinoderms is that they were bilateral and free swimming.
Origins of EchinodermsOrigins of Echinoderms
• The echinoderms represent the only major group of deuterostome invertebrates.
• This pattern of development is one piece of evidence biologists have for placing echinoderms as the closest invertebrate relatives of the chordates.
Origins of EchinodermsOrigins of Echinoderms• Most echinoderms have been found as
fossils from the early Paleozoic Era.• Fossils of brittle
stars are found beginning at a later period. Not much is known about the origin of sea daisies.

• Summarize the characteristics of chordates.
Section Objectives:
• Explain how invertebrate chordates are related to vertebrates.
• Distinguish between sea squirts and lancelets.
What is an invertebrate chordate?What is an invertebrate chordate?
• The phylum Chordata includes three subphyla: Urochordata, the tunicates (sea squirts); Cephalochordata, the lancelets; and Vertebrata, the vertebrates.
• Invertebrate chordates have a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, pharyngeal pouches, and a postanal tail at some time during their development.

Notochord
• In invertebrate chordates, the notochord may be retained into adulthood. But in vertebrate chordates, this structure is replaced by a backbone.
• Invertebrate chordates do not develop a backbone.
All chordates have a notochordAll chordates have a notochord
• The notochord develops just after the formation of a gastrula from mesoderm on what will be the dorsal side of the embryo.
• The notochord anchors internal muscles and enables invertebrate chordates to make rapid movements of the body.
All chordates have a notochordAll chordates have a notochord
• The dorsal hollow nerve cord in chordates develops from a plate of ectoderm that rolls into a hollow tube.

All chordates have pharyngeal pouchesAll chordates have pharyngeal pouches
• The pharyngeal pouches of a chordate embryo are paired openings located in the pharynx, behind the mouth.
• In aquatic chordates, pharyngeal pouches develop openings called gill slits.
• In terrestrial chordates, pharyngeal pouches develop into other structures.
• At some point in development, all chordates have a postanal tail.
• Humans are chordates, and during the early development of the human embryo, there is a postanal tail that disappears as development continues.
Postanal tail
All chordates have a postanal tailAll chordates have a postanal tail
All chordates have a postanal tailAll chordates have a postanal tail• In most animals that have
tails, the digestive system extends to the tip of the tail, where the anus is located.
• Chordates, however, usually have a tail that extends beyond the anus.
• Muscle blocks aid in movement of the tail.
• Muscle blocks are modified body segments that consist of stacked muscle layers.
• Muscle blocks are anchored by the notochord, which gives the muscles a firm structure to pull against.

Homeotic genes control developmentHomeotic genes control development
• Homeotic genes specify body organization and direct the development of tissues and organs in an embryo.
• Studies of chordate homeotic genes have helped scientists understand the process of development and the relationship of invertebrate chordates to vertebrate chordates.
Diversity of Invertebrate ChordatesDiversity of Invertebrate Chordates
• The invertebrate chordates belong to two subphyla of the phylum chordata: subphylum Urochordata, the tunicates (TEW nuh kaytz), also called sea squirts, and subphylum Cephalochordata, the lancelets.
Tunicates are sea squirtsTunicates are sea squirts
• Although adult tunicates do not appear to have any shared chordate features, the larval stage, has a tail that makes it look similar to a tadpole.
Tunicates are sea squirtsTunicates are sea squirts
• Tunicate larvae do not feed and are free swimming after hatching.
• They soon settle and attach themselves with a sucker to boats, rocks, and the ocean bottom.
• Many adult tunicates secrete a tunic, a tough sac made of cellulose, around their bodies.
Tunicates are sea squirtsTunicates are sea squirts
• Colonies of tunicates sometimes secrete just one big tunic that has a common opening to the outside.
• Only the gill slits in adult tunicates indicate their chordate relationship.
• Adult tunicates are small, tubular animals that range in size from microscopic to several centi-meters long.
Tunicates are sea squirtsTunicates are sea squirts
• If you remove a tunicate from its sea home, it might squirt out a jet of water-hence the name sea squirt.

• Lancelets do not have a distinct head, but they do have light sensitive cells on the anterior end.
• They also have a hood that covers the mouth and the sensory tentacles surrounding it.
• The tentacles direct the water current and food particles toward the animal’s mouth.
Origins of Invertebrate ChordatesOrigins of Invertebrate Chordates
• Biologist are not sure where sea squirts and lancelets fit in the phylogeny of chordates.
• According to one hypothesis, echinoderms, invertebrate chordates, and vertebrates all arose from ancestral sessile animals that fed by capturing food in tentacles.
Origins of Invertebrate ChordatesOrigins of Invertebrate Chordates
• Recent discoveries of fossil forms of organisms that are similar to living lancelets in rocks 550 million years old show that invertebrate chordates probably existed before vertebrate chordates.

Gill slits
• Echinoderms have spines or bumps on their endoskeletons, radial symmetry, and water vascular systems. Most move by means of the suction action of tube feet.
Echinoderms
• Echinoderms can be carnivorous, herbivorous, scavengers, or filter feeders.
• Echinoderms include sea stars, brittle stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, sea cucumbers, sea lilies, feather stars, and sea daisies.
• Deuterostome development is an indicator of the close phylogenetic relationship between echinoderms and chordates.
Echinoderms
• A good fossil record of this phylum exists because the endoskeleton of echinoderms fossilizes easily.
• All chordates have a dorsal hollow nerve cord, a notochord, pharyngeal pouches, and a postanal tail at some stage during development.
Invertebrate Chordates
• All chordates also have bilateral symmetry, a well-developed coelem, and segmentation.
• Sea squirts and lancelets are invertebrate chordates.
