View the preserved tapeworm and the slides of the tapeworm scolex (head) and proglottids (reproductive bodies). The preserved annelida specimens will be on display, but may differ from the ones directly mentioned in the lab handout. The phyla we viewed today were the porifera, the cnidaria, the nematoda and the arthropoda.

As you peel this piece of carapace away, it may be necessary to reach underneath with the point of a scissors or needle to brush away and detach any tissue from the interior of the animal that is attached to the carapace.

Nearly all (about 99 percent) cnidarians are marine species. Cnidarians contain specialized cells known as cnidocytes (“stinging cells”) containing organelles called nematocysts (stingers). These cells are present around the mouth and tentacles, and serve to immobilize prey with toxins contained within the cells.

Despite the simplicity of the nervous system, it is remarkable that it coordinates the complicated movement of the tentacles, the drawing of captured prey to the mouth, the digestion of food, and the expulsion of waste.
