Document Summary
Segment in the insect body: responsible for food storage, ovaries can enlarge in females, can expand and contract, comprised of major tagma, excretory function, all functions as a result of expandable abdomen. Provide the developing embryo with nutrients and water: essential to embryonic development outside of maternal organism. Stores nitrogenous waste removed from the embryo (primarily uric acid) Present in amniote eggs: at hatching part of the allantoic membrane (surrounding the allantois) becomes a portion of the organisms bladder. Ametabolous metamorphosis: larvae is essentially identical to adult, no wing development, all non winged insects display this. Amnion: a fluid filled sac that surrounds the embryo during development. Present in amniote eggs: allows life on dry land, liberates organisms from reliance in standing water. Amniotes: contains both mammal and reptilian lineage, create miniature ocean to keep zygote hydrolized, have amniotic fluid. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi: oldest and most abundant type of mycorrhizal fungi.
