What's the difference between crinoid and echinoderm?

Crinoid


Definition:

  • (a.) Crinoidal.
  • (n.) One of the Crinoidea.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) At 5 hr, gastrulation has occurred in the absence of any structure comparable to the echinoid hyaline layer; therefore, at least one important mechanism proposed for echinoid gastrulation cannot occur in this crinoid.
  • (2) This is done from a comparative perspective, with reference to members of the five extant echinoderm classes; crinoids, holothurians, asteroids, ophiuroids, and echinoids.
  • (3) Several species of fish are deterred from eating food by the inclusion in it of these sulphates at the concentration found in crinoids.
  • (4) We report the results of cutting experiments on embryos of the crinoid Florometra serratissima, which produce, in the doliolaria stage, a striped pattern of ciliary bands.
  • (5) We have examined echinoderms from the five existing classes (echinoids, asteroids, ophiuroids, holothurians and crinoids) for the expression of these specific phosphagen kinases in different tissues.
  • (6) The range of (presumed) polyketide constituents in comatalid crinoids has been extended to include bianthronyls, meso-naphthodianthrones and sulphate esters of various of the polyketides.
  • (7) In contrast, the obliquely striated fibres of crinoids show markedly continuous and homogeneous oblique Z-lines; such a structure is not compatible with 'super-performances' like sliding and shearing of the sarcomere elements, but instead could allow functions comparable to those characteristic of a cross-striated muscle (quick, short movements, mechanically amplifiable by bone levers).

Echinoderm


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the Echinodermata.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The fertilization reaction of echinoderm eggs (Lytechinus pictus, a sea urchin, and Dendraster excentricus, a sand dollar) was followed with intracellular electrodes.
  • (2) I describe the anatomy and fine structure of the echinoderm ovary, with emphasis on both the cellular relationships of the germ line cells to the somatic cells of the inner epithelium, and on the neuromuscular systems.
  • (3) In echinoderms, which stop at interphase, no such a factor has so far been found.
  • (4) In frogs and mammals, the oocytes are arrested at the second metaphase of meiosis whereas in echinoderms they are blocked later, at the pronucleus stage.
  • (5) An examination of Antp class homeo box genes in deuterostomes indicates that a chromosomal duplication has taken place in the evolutionary line leading to the vertebrates after the divergence of the echinoderms.
  • (6) Next, we present some features of the described processes for sugar and amino acid transport in the tubular portion of gastrointestinal tracts of three major invertebrate groups: echinoderms, molluscs, and arthropods.
  • (7) The emonctory structures, functions and stereotype and their component parts are studied in protists, spongia, coelenterata and coelomata: lower worms, annelids, their hyponeurian descendents (arthropods, molluses) and epineurian descedents echinoderms and protochordates (Stomochordata, Tunicata, Cephalochordata).
  • (8) The transition from the single creatine kinase locus, characteristic of certain echinoderms, to the two creatine kinase loci which are orthologous to those present in all vertebrates, occurred early in the chordate line.
  • (9) These features are characteristic of sea urchin (Echinoderm) spines which are composed of ornately formed calcite crystals covered by an epithelium.
  • (10) The echinoderms Asterias rubens and Solaster papposus (Class Asteroidea) metabolize injected [4(-14)C]cholest-5-en-3beta-ol to produce labelled 5alpha-cholestan-3beta-ol and 5alpha-cholest-7-en-3beta-ol.
  • (11) Echinoderm oocyte maturation is reviewed and a description of the ultrastructural, biochemical and molecular biological changes thought to occur during this process is presented.
  • (12) Another round of gene duplication, involving Wnt-3, -5, -7, and -10, occurred after the echinoderm lineage arose, on the ancestral lineage of jawed vertebrates.
  • (13) Changes in the distribution and organizational state of actin in the cortex of echinoderm eggs are believed to be important events following fertilization.
  • (14) Small numbers are present in algae, ferns, conifers, sponges, echinoderms, other marine animals, and arthropods.
  • (15) However, recent work which used colchicine to block microtubule assembly in the eggs of two other echinoderms, S. purpuratus and D. excentricus, has raised serious questions about the generality of this role for spindle microtubules.
  • (16) It would seem that these epitope regions have been strongly conserved since the epitope region is also present in the phosphoprotein of echinoderm teeth.
  • (17) Both species differences and species similarities in the agglutination were found in spermatozoa of the echinoderm, the sea urchin and the starfish.
  • (18) Furthermore, during meiotic maturation in these echinoderm and amphibian oocytes, this is followed by activation of many of the same protein-serine (threonine) kinases that are stimulated when quiescent mammalian somatic cells are prompted with mitogens to traverse from G0 to G1 phase.
  • (19) One of these fragments contains the active site and is identical at all sequenced residues with the corresponding region from the echinoderm sperm flagellar creatine kinase, and is 96% homologous with both chicken and rat B creatine kinase subunits.
  • (20) A significant feature of the early development of fertilized echinoderm and amphibian eggs and germinating seed embryos is the utilization of genetic information that has been previously transcribed during oogenesis and seed ripening.
