<strong>Phylum</strong> <strong>Arthropoda</strong>: <strong>Crustacea</strong> & <strong>Muscular</strong> <strong>Systems</strong> 10.1<br />
Lab #10 -- Biological Sciences 102 – Animal Biology<br />
The large lineage of crustaceans, insects, and myriapods<br />
that possess mandibles, or jawlike appendages, instead of<br />
chelicerae are often called mandibulate arthropods. They<br />
have, in addition to mandibles, at least one pair of antennae<br />
and a pair of maxillae on the head.<br />
Until recently crustaceans, insects, and myriapods<br />
(millipedes and centipedes) were all placed in a single<br />
subphylum, Mandibulata, of the phylum <strong>Arthropoda</strong><br />
because all possess mandibles. However, a growing body of<br />
opinion among zoologists contends that the mandibles of<br />
the crustaceans and the mandibles of insects and<br />
myriapods are not homologous but are the result of<br />
convergent evolution from separate origins. Consequently<br />
crustaceans are now placed in a separate subphylum,<br />
<strong>Crustacea</strong>, and insects and myriapods are grouped in the<br />
subphylum Uniramia.<br />
Decapoda by Haeckel<br />
Body Plan Features Characteristic of Members of the Subphylum <strong>Crustacea</strong>:<br />
‣ gills for respiration<br />
‣ two pairs of antennae<br />
‣ two pairs of maxillae on the head<br />
‣ usually one pair of appendages on each body segment<br />
‣ some appendages of present-day crustaceans are biramous (two-branched)<br />
Body Plan Features Retained by Arthropods (seen in previously studied phyla):<br />
‣ bilateral symmetry<br />
‣ eucoelomic (true coelom)<br />
‣ high degree of cephalization = well developed head with sensory organs<br />
‣ specialized segmentation (metamerism) = tagmata<br />
‣ triploblastic structure (endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm)<br />
‣ all organ systems are present<br />
Body Plan Features Characteristic of Members of the <strong>Phylum</strong> <strong>Arthropoda</strong>:<br />
1. developed striated muscle for rapid movement<br />
2. an exoskeleton, or cuticle, containing the tough nitrogenous polysaccharide chitin for<br />
support and protection<br />
3. gills and a very efficient tracheal system for gaseous exchange<br />
4. greater specialization of body organs, especially specialization of form and function<br />
among the appendages<br />
5. "open" circulatory system<br />

Lab #10 -- Biological Sciences 102 – Animal Biology<br />
<strong>Muscular</strong> <strong>Systems</strong>: Types of Muscle Cells<br />
Muscles are specialized organs comprised of cells that are both electrically excitable (they can<br />
conduct action potentials) and contractile. This contractibility allows muscles to move the<br />
bones found in appendages or against a hydrostatic skeleton as well as to manipulate internal<br />
organs and structures. The cell structure of skeletal cells that control body movements is<br />
different from that of the smooth muscle cells that operate in the digestive, cardiovascular,<br />
respiratory, reproductive, etc. organ systems. Cardiac muscle cells have specialized<br />
connections for electrical conduction (gap junctions) and protein connections between cell<br />
membranes (desmosomes) which are critical to the normal functioning of the heart and the<br />
effective pumping of blood.<br />
muscle fiber = elongated multinucleate skeletal muscle cell<br />
Muscles are made of specialized fibrous cells that contain the specialized muscle protein fibers<br />
(actin and myosin among others). These fibers are packed together into myofibrils which in<br />
turn are packed together to form a muscle. We will review the basic functional unit of muscle<br />
called a sarcomere later in lecture.<br />
Three Basic Tvpes of Muscle Tissue:<br />
Some types are not found in some animals<br />
1. Skeletal muscle = moves bones/skeleton, voluntary respiratory organs, eyes, mouth, etc.<br />
‣ skeletal muscle fibers are long, cylindrical multinucleate muscle cells or fibers (they<br />
form a syncitium)<br />
‣ skeletal muscle is striated<br />
‣ under voluntary control<br />
2. Smooth muscle = circle the digestive tract, blood vessels, respiratory, reproductive and<br />
urinary ducts; make up parts of many internal organs<br />
‣ smooth muscle cells are long, tapering strands that are not multinucleate<br />
(=uninucleate)<br />
‣ smooth muscle is not striated<br />
‣ under involuntary control<br />
3. Cardiac muscle = heart muscle only<br />
‣ cardiac muscle is composed of the fast acting, uninucleate muscle cells that make<br />
up the heart<br />
‣ cardiac muscle is not striated<br />
‣ under involuntary control<br />
‣ due to specialized connections between cardiac muscle cells called intercalated<br />
disks, the cells which make up a chamber of the heart can beat in unison for the<br />
efficient pumping of blood. Intercalated disks contain cell-to-cell connections called<br />
gap junctions and desmosomes<br />
motor neurons = neurons that innervate skeletal muscle fibers<br />
motor unit = a motor neuron can divide and form neuromuscular junctions with several<br />
(sometimes thousands) of skeletal muscle fibers. The motor neuron plus the skeletal muscle<br />
fibers it innervates make up a motor unit. When a motor neuron fires, all of the muscle fibers<br />
that it innervates will contract.

‣ Examine the external anatomy of the crayfish on both the dorsal and ventral<br />
sides and be able to identify the following structures:<br />
External Morphology<br />
‣ cephalothorax<br />
‣ abdomen<br />
‣ carapace<br />
‣ telson<br />
‣ rostrum<br />
‣ uropods<br />
Paired Appendages<br />
‣ antennae<br />
‣ antennules<br />
‣ chelipeds<br />
‣ four pairs of walking legs<br />
‣ pleopods (swimmerets)<br />
‣ thoracic and cephalic feeding appendages (maxillopeds and mandibles)<br />
‣ Which of these appendages are cephalic?<br />
‣ Which of these appendages are thoracic?<br />
‣ Is your crayfish a male or a female?<br />
After you have completed your study of the live specimen, place it in boiling water, and<br />
after a brief period, remove it and allow to cool. Hold the crayfish and cut through the<br />
back of the carapace along the dotted line indicated (see pg. 11.9). Cut through the<br />
thoracic region just internal to the branchiostegal line. If the crayfish is about to molt,<br />
there will be a thin sheet of unhardened chitin inside the hardened exoskeleton. This<br />
should be stripped off with forceps.<br />
Next, cut along the dotted line indicated on pg. 11.9 to remove the left branchiostegite<br />
and reveal the gills. After observing the gills, and removing them, cut along the dotted<br />
lines indicated on pg. 11.9 to remove the side wall of the thorax and the head.
