The welding program at Northwest Florida State College did that for me.
I remember driving by the NWF State College welding trailer, and I took that as a sign that I needed to apply
to the program. I did, the very next day. I started attending classes the following semester. Even though I lived
over 30 minutes away and didn’t have a driver’s license at the time, I never questioned if I was going to welding
class that day, no matter how much life got in the way. The welding program sparked something in me the
very first day. I knew it was what I was meant to do, and I felt motivated and driven every day to do my best. It
felt like this was my second chance at obtaining the life I wanted.
One of the best parts about the NWF State College welding program was the instructor, Mr. Scottie Smith.

its mode of origin, it is here regarded as a right hydrocoel, i.e. a
rudimentary fellow of the organ which develops into the water-
vascular system.

In Auricularia (Fig. 287, D) the coelomic vesicle, after the pore-canal


is formed, divides into an anterior and a posterior half. The posterior
part then divides into right and left halves, whilst the anterior sac
divides into dorsal and ventral halves, connected by a narrow neck.
The ventral half soon assumes the familiar feature of the hydrocoel
(Fig. 287, D3, l.hy), whilst the dorsal half forms an insignificant
swelling on the course of the conjoined stone- and pore-canals,
which represents the left anterior coelom of the other types; neither
right anterior coelom nor right hydrocoel being developed. The neck
of communication between dorsal and ventral halves is, of course,
the stone-canal.

The Dipleurula larva leads a free-swimming life for a period varying


from two weeks to two months, and then undergoes
metamorphosis into the adult form. The details of this process have
been worked out in comparatively few cases; and the species in
which they are most thoroughly known is the Asteroid Asterina
gibbosa. The development of this species is intermediate in
character between the embryonic and larval types. The eggs are
larger than is usual among Asteroidea, and are filled with a bright
orange yolk. The larva differs from the Bipinnaria in the absence of
the characteristic ciliated bands and in the very early occlusion of the
anus. There is, however, a band of cilia round the edge of the prae-
oral lobe, which corresponds to portions of the prae-oral and post-
oral bands combined of the Bipinnaria.[519]

The larva has a form which may be described as boot-shaped (Figs.


288, 289). The sole of the boot is the great prae-oral lobe, behind
which is the mouth. The larva takes little or no food, and completes
its metamorphosis in ten to twelve days. It does not swim at the
surface, but creeps slowly over the bottom by the aid of the ciliated
band mentioned above, while it can also attach itself, using the
edges of the prae-oral lobe as a sucker.

After leading an existence of this kind for seven or eight days it fixes
itself permanently by a disc-like prominence, which appears on the
anterior surface of the prae-oral lobe within the area surrounded by
the thickened rim which, as explained above, forms a margin to the
prae-oral lobe. The larva then becomes divided by a constriction into
a disc and a stalk, and the former is gradually converted into the
body of the young Starfish, whilst the latter continually diminishes in
size, and eventually entirely disappears, when the young Starfish
commences to walk about on its podia. The disc becomes bent
downwards and to the left, so as to make nearly a right angle with
the stalk, and the last vestige of the latter springs from the peristome
of the Starfish inside the water-vascular ring (Figs. 289, B, C).

The form of the Starfish is attained principally by the preponderant


growth of the left hydrocoel and of the left posterior coelom. Both
these sacs take on the form of hoops, which, by the meeting of their
ends, are converted into rings. The hydrocoel has already grown out
into five lobes, which are the rudiments of the radial water-vascular
canals, and the tips of which become the terminal sensory tentacles
(Figs. 288, 289, 1-5); but now the left posterior coelom grows out into
five lobes also, forming a parallel but outer ring. These lobes (Figs.
288, 289, I.-V.) are the rudiments of the arms, which are at first quite
independent of those of the radial canals, but gradually, when the
larva has attained the age of nine days (Fig. 289, B, C), they become
applied to the outgrowths of the hydrocoel. These by this time have
developed each two pairs of branches, the rudiments of the first two
pairs of tube-feet in each radius. The larval mouth vanishes, and a
new mouth is formed on the left side in the centre of the hydrocoel
ring, when the metamorphosis is complete. The adult anus is formed
about the same time. The primary pore-canal in Asterina as in all
Dipleurulae opens into the anterior coelom; the stone-canal is
formed from a ciliated groove running along the neck of
communication between this and the hydrocoel. The constriction
dividing the body into disc and stalk divides the anterior coelom
(single in Asterina as in the older Bipinnaria) into two parts; the
portion included in the disc forms the axial sinus of the adult. The
lower end of the axial sinus expands and surrounds the adult mouth,
forming the inner perihaemal ring; the outer perihaemal ring is
formed by the juxtaposition of four wedge-shaped outgrowths from
the left posterior coelom and one from the anterior coelom. From
these the radial perihaemal canals subsequently grow out into the
arms. The metamorphosis of Bipinnaria has been well worked out by
Goto,[520] and it agrees in essential features with that of Asterina
gibbosa; in fact, the differences which Goto maintains between the
two types may be reasonably explained on the supposition of some
stages having escaped the notice of this observer. The larva
develops on the apex of the prae-oral lobe three papillae for
occasional attachment,[521] and in the centre of these a cup-shaped
disc for permanent fixation when the prae-oral lobe is converted into
a stalk. When these papillae (Fig. 290, fix) have been developed the
larva is known as a Brachiolaria.

The metamorphoses of the other types of Dipleurula contain no fixed
stage. They are what might be called "cataclysmal metamorphoses."
That is to say, the outer form and habits of the larva are preserved till
the last moment, whilst the organs of the adult are being gradually
perfected; then in an hour or two all trace of larval structures
disappears. The Ophiopluteus preserves the larval mouth, round
which the hydrocoel grows; the long lateral ciliated processes are
preserved till the animal has attained all the adult characters. Before
this, however, it passes through what may be called an "Asteroid"
stage in development, in which the ambulacral grooves are open.
The Echinopluteus loses both larval mouth and anus. It develops the
adult organs on the floor of a sac-like invagination of the ectoderm,
situated on the left side within a loop of the ciliated band (Fig. 291, B,
C). This invagination becomes completely closed. It is termed the
"amniotic cavity," and its roof is termed the "amnion." On its floor are
developed the primary tentacles, terminating the radial canals, as
well as a number of spines. After taking on a creeping life and losing
its larval appendages, the young Sea-urchin passes through an
"Asteroid" condition, in which the arched dorsal surface, the future
periproct, is greater in extent than the ventral, and the radial canals
run horizontally out from the water-vascular ring and terminate in
free movable podia (Fig. 291, C and D, pod), ending in suckers, in
the centre of which are pointed sense-organs. These podia become
later enclosed in grooves in the corona, and are reduced to vestiges
in the adult.

The Auricularia is the only type of Dipleurula in which larval mouth


and anus are retained. For this reason it has been supposed that its
median plane of symmetry remains the median plane of the adult.
The researches of Bury[522] have shown that this is not so. As in
other types of Dipleurula (with the possible exception of the
Ophiopluteus) the adult position of the mouth is on the left side of the
larva, and in the commencement of the metamorphosis the mouth
migrates into this position (Fig. 286, C). Then the rudimentary prae-
oral lobe is rapidly absorbed, so that the mouth again acquires a
terminal position. The hydrocoel (Fig. 286, A, hy) has by this time
completely encircled the oesophagus, and from it grow out the radial
canals which bud off the feelers[523] (buccal tentacles) into the larval
stomodaeum. This, although it later flattens out to form the adult
peristome, forms in these stages an almost closed sac, reminding us
of the amniotic cavity in the Echinopluteus. The ciliated band breaks
up into a number of pieces, which rearrange themselves so as to
form a series of transverse rings of cilia; so that the free-swimming
life can be carried on somewhat longer. The animal in this stage is
called a "pupa" (Fig. 292); it eventually loses the rings, drops to the
bottom, and develops tube-feet. From specimens which the author
has seen, he has little doubt that in some cases the young animal
passes through an "Echinoid" stage, for it possesses, besides the
feelers, only median tube-feet, terminating the radial canals, and it is
covered by a cuirass of plates, which recalls the Echinoid corona.

Reviewing the development of the Eleutherozoa in the light of the


facts so far presented, and using the same method of reasoning
which is employed in the case of other groups of animals, we seem
to be justified in concluding that the Echinodermata are descended
from a simple free-swimming ancestor possessing the fundamental
characters of the Dipleurula. These would include a longitudinal
folded band of cilia as the principal organ of locomotion; a thickened
plate of nervous epithelium at the anterior end serving as combined
sense-organ and brain; a V-shaped band of cilia projecting into the
oesophagus as the organ of nutrition; a wide, shallow stomodaeum
and an alimentary canal consisting of three well-marked divisions,
viz. oesophagus, stomach, and intestine; and finally a secondary
body-cavity or coelom, consisting of three divisions on each side,
though possibly the most anterior pair were confluent in the prae-oral
lobe. On the left side the anterior coelom opened to the exterior by a
short ciliated canal. To the hypothetical group so defined which were
certainly not Echinodermata the name Protocoelomata may be
given.

Morgan.)

Now amongst the lowest types of animal in which traces of


Vertebrate structure can be detected, there is one group, the
Hemichordata (Vol. VII. p. 3), in which there is a larva which
strikingly recalls the Dipleurula. This larval form belongs to
Balanoglossus and is called the Tornaria. It possesses a well-marked
prae-oral lobe and a folded longitudinal ciliated band, which
resembles that of Auricularia. Its peculiarity is that in addition there is
a posterior ring of cilia (Fig. 293, p). The coelom is in five divisions:—
a median anterior sac (a.c) opening to the exterior by a short ciliated
canal on the left side; and paired middle divisions (m.c) and posterior
divisions (p.c). At the apex of the prae-oral lobe there is a plate
consisting of sensory epithelium, with nerve-fibres at its base, which
acts as a brain. Tornaria undergoes metamorphosis, assumes a
worm-like form, and takes on a burrowing life. The five divisions of
the coelom are retained, and it can be proved that the pore-canal,
like the madreporite of Echinodermata, is used for taking in water.
Further, there are two aberrant sessile members of the group
(Cephalodiscus and Rhabdopleura), in which the middle divisions of
the coelom which would correspond to the hydrocoels are produced
into long arms, each with a double row of ciliated tentacles, which
strikingly recall the radial canals and podia of the Pelmatozoa.
Taking all these facts into consideration, it seems probable that
Vertebrata and Echinodermata both arose from Protocoelomata.

When we turn to the developmental history of Echinodermata for


light on the question as to how the bilaterally symmetrical ancestor
became converted into the radially symmetrical Echinoderm, it
seems probable that only in the development of the Asteroidea can
we hope to find the solution of the problem. The abrupt changes of
habits shown in the metamorphoses of the other types are clearly
secondary phenomena. No species of animal could suddenly change
its habits from swimming by means of cilia to walking with tube-feet.
In the development, however, of Asterina gibbosa we get a hint of
the way in which a free-swimming life could alternate with periods of
temporary fixation, gradually passing into a condition in which the
fixation was permanent. This period in the history of the race when
ancestral Echinodermata were sessile would mark the point at which
Eleutherozoa diverged from Pelmatozoa, and the former existence of
a fixed ancestor explains the tendency first to asymmetry and later to
radial symmetry. Bilateral symmetry is characteristic of most free-
swimming animals which have to pursue a straight course through
the water, but in fixed forms no disadvantage arises from want of
symmetry. A radial disposition of organs is, however, valuable to
them, since food must be sought and danger avoided from all points
of the compass; and hence we can understand, when fixation
became permanent, how one hydrocoel could grow larger than the
other, and finally assume the form of a ring.

The last question which arises is the vexed one of the mutual
relationships of the various Classes constituting the Phylum. Before
attempting to seek for light on this problem from development, it will
be necessary to sketch the life-history of Antedon rosacea, the only
Pelmatozoon whose development is known.

swimming larva; B, longitudinal section of free-swimming larva; C, oral view

l.p.c, left posterior coelom; mad, primary pore-canal; pod, podia; r.p.c, right
posterior coelom; stom, larval stomodaeum. (A and B after Bury; C after
Perrier.)

The eggs are comparatively large and full of food-yolk, and they
adhere for a considerable period to the pinnules. They pass through
a large portion of the development within the egg-membrane. The
blastula and gastrula are formed in the usual way, but the formation
of the coelom is most remarkable (Fig. 287, E1, E2). The
archenteron divides into anterior and posterior divisions. The
posterior divides into right and left, posterior coelomic sacs, but
before the division is complete a dorsal and a ventral tongue grow
out from the anterior division and unite posteriorly, encircling the
band of connexion between right and left posterior coelomic sacs like
a ring. This band of connexion becomes solid and is absorbed, and
pari passu the ring becomes converted, by the disappearance of its
central opening, into a sac, which is the definitive gut (Fig. 287, E).
The rest of the anterior division divides into a thick-walled sac, the
hydrocoel, on the left, and a median thin-walled anterior coelom,
which sends a long extension into the anterior portion of the larva,
which we may compare to the prae-oral lobe of the Bipinnaria. The
anterior coelom communicates with the exterior by a short pore-
canal, and later forms a connexion, the stone-canal, with the
hydrocoel. At the apex of the prae-oral lobe there is formed a
thickened patch of ectoderm, bearing stiff sensory hairs, and having
at their bases nerve-fibres and ganglion cells. This larval brain
corresponds to that of the Tornaria and Echinopluteus. Behind the
brain there is a glandular pit, which is used for fixation, and recalls
the similar organ in the Bipinnaria. A series of ciliated rings is then
formed, and between the second and third of them an oval
depression appears. This is the stomodaeum; but as the larva takes
no food it does not communicate with the gut (Fig. 295, A, stom).

The larva next escapes from the egg-membrane and swims freely for
a day or two, and then, like the Bipinnaria, fixes itself by the apex of
the prae-oral lobe, which is converted into a stalk. The larval
stomodaeum closes, and the oesophagus of the adult appears as a
solid peg of cells abutting against it; round this peg the hydrocoel
grows like a ring.

The closed stomodaeum and the underlying hydrocoel are now


rotated backwards until they come to be at the end of the animal
opposite the stalk (Fig. 295, C). The left posterior coelom, which has
also, as in the Asteroid larva, assumed a hoop-like form, is carried
along with them; but the right posterior coelom becomes shifted
forwards and sends out five outgrowths into the stalk, which form the
rudiments of the chambered organ, and a central one as a
continuation of the genital stolon (Fig. 295, D, gen.st), the extension
of the anterior coelom (Fig. 294, B) having disappeared.

Then the outer wall of the stomodaeum splits into five valves—the
future oral valves. The radial canals appear as freely projecting
tentacles, which issue in the intervals of these valves and soon
acquire two pairs of lateral branches. The skeleton consists of five
oral plates in the oral valves, of a ring of five basals, of three small
under-basals, and of a series of "columnals," i.e. stem-ossicles, as
rings embracing the stalk. The area of attachment is supported by a
"foot-plate." The radial plates next appear as a ring of small ossicles
between the orals and basals, and simultaneously the arms make
their appearance as five outgrowths supported by the first radials,
and by the other radials when these appear. The free radial canals
now become adherent to the arms, but these canals soon give off
paired branches of unlimited growth, which are supported by
bifurcations of the primitive arms, and in this way the ten arms of the
adult are established. So far, then, as the water-vascular system is
concerned, the apparent forking is not a true dichotomy, but results
from the production of two opposite branches, whilst the main axis
ceases to grow. The appearance of cirri marks the fusion of the
uppermost stem-ossicles to form a centro-dorsal, and shortly
afterwards the young Antedon snaps off its stem and swims away.

Fig. 295.—Four diagrams to explain the metamorphosis of the larva of Antedon


rosacea. a.c, Anterior coelom; gen.st, genital stolon; l.hy, left hydrocoel;
l.pc, left posterior coelom; mp, madreporic pore; r.p.c. right posterior
coelom; stom, stomodaeum. (A, B, and C after Korschelt and Heider; D
after Perrier.)

Now in reviewing this life-history we cannot fail to be struck with


resemblances to the development of Asteroidea, and especially to
that of Asterina gibbosa. The absence of a connexion between
stomodaeum and gut is due to the embryonic mode of life. On the
other hand, the presence of a long prae-oral lobe, containing an
extension of the anterior coelom and having a fixing organ at its
apex, can only be paralleled among Asteroidea. In broad outlines,
then, up to the period of fixation the two developments are parallel,
but after this point a divergence takes place, which points clearly to
the splitting of the Echinoderm stem into two main branches,
corresponding with two different sets of habits. In the Eleutherozoan
stock, represented by the development of the Asteroidea, the disc
became flexed ventrally on the stalk, so that the mouth and podia
were brought within reach of material drifting along the bottom, which
the podia were employed to seize. As a consequence the base of
the stalk was brought near the mouth, and so it came about that the
hydrocoel, when it became a ring, encircled both. In the
Pelmatozoan stock, on the other hand, the podia and mouth are
rotated upwards and backwards from the stalk, which thus came to
have an aboral position (Fig. 296, B). The podia are thus placed in a
favourable position for capturing free-swimming organisms, which
their cilia sweep toward them. It is worthy of note that a similar
change of position of the mouth occurs in other groups of animals
which have similar habits (Polyzoa Entoprocta, Tunicata).

Pelmatozoa. A, common fixed ancestor of the two stocks, still bilaterally

a.c, anterior coelom; l.p.c, l.p.c1, left posterior coelom; m, mouth; p, primary
pore-canal; r.p.c, right posterior coelom.

The division therefore of the phylum must have occurred at an


extremely remote epoch, before the hydrocoel was a closed ring,
and before, therefore, radial symmetry was completely attained.

Turning now to the question of the origin of the classes of


Eleutherozoa, we find that the study of development strongly
reinforces the views gained from the study of adult anatomy. The
Asteroidea are the most primitive group; only in their case is the
fixed stage retained, and both Ophiuroidea and Echinoidea pass
through an Asteroid stage in development. The only serious
competitors for the position are the Holothuroidea, which many have
imagined to have been directly derived from Cystoidea (in the old
sense; better Thecoidea). This view, though adopted by Semon,[525]
Haeckel,[526] and Bather,[527] is open to many objections. The type
of Holothuroid development referred to in these discussions is that of
the extremely aberrant Synapta digitata, in which the radial canals
are vestigial structures which disappear in the adult. In this species,
where the feelers are multiplied, some originate in the larva directly
from the water-vascular ring, and thus alternate with the canals.
From this circumstance Semon drew the conclusion that the radial
canals of Holothuroidea are not homologous with those of other
Echinoderms, but this conclusion is contradicted by the development
of more normal species, in which all the feelers spring from the radial
canals. The meridional course of these canals, the closure of the
ambulacral grooves, coupled with the retention of a nervous
ectoderm, are all features found in Echinoidea. So is also a reduction
in the number of the genital organs, on which Bell[528] laid such
stress that he separated Holothuroidea from all other Echinoderms.
But if in Spatangoidea a reduction to four and even three can take
place (Fig. 246, p. 552), why should a reduction to two or one excite
surprise? The primitive outer appearance of the Auricularia is
counterbalanced by the development of the coelom, which is much
modified, so that the primitive bilateral arrangement is obscured. If,
then, Asteroidea are the most primitive Eleutherozoa, we may
imagine that primitive Echinoidea were derived from Asteroidea
through adaptation to life in crevices, where an upward bending of
the radii was of advantage, in order to enable the animal to attach its
podia above as well as below itself; and that Holothuroidea arose
from primitive Echinoidea in which the plates of the corona were still
movable, through a further adaptation to narrow crevices, where
worm-like wriggling would be the most successful method of
adapting themselves to their environment.

The final result, then, of all our inquiries leads us to a view of the
mutual affinities of the classes of Echinoderms, which may be
indicated in the following table:—
We shall hazard the prophecy that if ever pre-Cambrian
Echinoderms are found, there will be amongst them small stalked
forms which may be superficially classed with "Cystids," but which
are in reality the fixed ancestors of Asteroidea. They should have an
irregular skeleton, and be devoid of arms, which are secondary
formations; but they should indicate, by the proximity of the mouth to
the stalk and by the relation to the stalk of the grooves for the podia,
that they have diverged from the Pelmatozoan stock, and are the
ancestors of Eleutherozoa.
