  • Interpreting Amphioxus, and Thoughts on Ancestral Chordate Mouths and Brains THURSTON LACALLI*
    Int. J. Dev. Biol. 61: 649-654 (2017) doi: 10.1387/ijdb.170105tl www.intjdevbiol.com Interpreting amphioxus, and thoughts on ancestral chordate mouths and brains THURSTON LACALLI* Biology Department, University of Victoria, Victoria, Canada ABSTRACT Amphioxus is increasingly important as a model for ancestral chordates. Nevertheless, it is secondarily modified in various ways, especially in the larva, whose small size has resulted in a rescaling and repositioning of structures. This is especially pronounced in the head region, where the mouth opens asymmetrically on the left side, leading to speculation that the mouth is sec- ondarily derived, e.g. from a gill slit, and is hence not homologous with mouths in other animals. The available evidence does not, in the author’s view, support this interpretation. A second issue is raised concerning the identity and function of the midbrain homolog, whose extent depends on whether greater weight is given to dorsal landmarks in the nerve cord or ventral ones. The presence of two sets of dorsal photoreceptors, the lamellar body and Joseph cells, functionally links the region they occupy to the vertebrate midbrain. The midbrain is currently suggested to be the brain region in which primary consciousness emerged during early vertebrate evolution, so the origin of its constituent cells is of special interest. Possible amphioxus homologs include the anterior-most group of dorsal bipolar cells (ADBs), which are apico-basally inverted (i.e. synapse-bearing neurites arise from the apical cell compartment) in the same fashion as cortical neurons in vertebrates. This may have been a crucial innovation for chordates, responsible for both improved sensory process- ing and, eventually, consciousness.

  • Structure and Function of the Digestive System in Molluscs
    Cell and Tissue Research (2019) 377:475–503 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00441-019-03085-9 REVIEW Structure and function of the digestive system in molluscs Alexandre Lobo-da-Cunha1,2 Received: 21 February 2019 /Accepted: 26 July 2019 /Published online: 2 September 2019 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract The phylum Mollusca is one of the largest and more diversified among metazoan phyla, comprising many thousand species living in ocean, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. Mollusc-feeding biology is highly diverse, including omnivorous grazers, herbivores, carnivorous scavengers and predators, and even some parasitic species. Consequently, their digestive system presents many adaptive variations. The digestive tract starting in the mouth consists of the buccal cavity, oesophagus, stomach and intestine ending in the anus. Several types of glands are associated, namely, oral and salivary glands, oesophageal glands, digestive gland and, in some cases, anal glands. The digestive gland is the largest and more important for digestion and nutrient absorption. The digestive system of each of the eight extant molluscan classes is reviewed, highlighting the most recent data available on histological, ultrastructural and functional aspects of tissues and cells involved in nutrient absorption, intracellular and extracellular digestion, with emphasis on glandular tissues. Keywords Digestive tract . Digestive gland . Salivary glands . Mollusca . Ultrastructure Introduction and visceral mass. The visceral mass is dorsally covered by the mantle tissues that frequently extend outwards to create a The phylum Mollusca is considered the second largest among flap around the body forming a space in between known as metazoans, surpassed only by the arthropods in a number of pallial or mantle cavity.

Among animals, only the phylum Arthropoda has more radula species. Some mollusks are sedentary filter feeders, while others gastropod are fast-moving predators with complex nervous systems. hemolymph Mollusks are among several phyla of animals known as hemocoel coelomates. Coelomates are so named because they have a true bivalve coelom, a hollow, fluid-filled cavity that is completely surrounded incurrent siphon by mesoderm. Coelomates differ from pseudocoelomates, such as excurrent siphon roundworms, which have a Body cavity lined By mesoderm on the cephalopod outside and endoderm on the inside.
