Mr. Chew Tyng Yong Abstract Mollusks and Crustaceans can be found vastly around the world. Arthropods have 1‚170‚000 described species‚ and account for over 80% of all known living animal species and Mollusca being the largest marine phylum‚ comprising about 23% of all the named marine organisms. With such diversity of these marine animals‚ the answer to many diseases are waiting to be discovered through the discovery of new bioactive compounds in them such as Chitin. It is proven that

Although some people claim the Cordyceps is both plant and animal. Belonging to the Phylum “Ascomycota” or the sac fungi‚ and the Genus is named Cordyceps. I would focus on a single species‚ however‚ there are over 400 different species of Cordyceps found in Asia‚ Australia‚ China‚ Europe‚ North America‚ Russia. The one I’m going to be

* Unicellular organisms without a nucleus. * Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms. They are the smallest‚ simplest organisms. * Microscopic & Undergoes Asexual reproduction. HISTORY The taxon Monera was first proposed as a phylum by Ernst Haeckel in 1866. Subsequently‚ the taxon was raised to the rank of kingdom in 1925 by Édouard Chatton. The last commonly accepted mega-classification with the taxon Monera was the five-kingdom classification system established by Robert Whittaker

Chrysaora fuscescens is the scientific name of the Pacific sea nettle. They belongs to phylum Cnidaria. They are native to the San Francisco Bay‚ and‚ as the name suggests‚ these jellyfish live in the Pacific Ocean. They thrive along the coasts of Oregon and California. They can also be found farther north in Japan and Alaska‚ although they are not as common in these northern waters. On occasions‚ they have been spotted as far south as the west coast of Mexico. During autumn and winter‚ Pacific sea

Evolutionary biologists believe that birds evolved from reptiles. Their skeletal structure and blood cells of today’s birds share a surprising foundation with reptiles. According to biologists‚ feathers may have evolved from the scales of reptilian skin‚ also. From 144 million to 66 million years ago‚ during the Mesozoic era‚ the first birds began to evolve. Fossils from this time showed that early birds had teeth. Tens of millions of years ago‚ a group of birds called kites evolved. Early kites

Vertebrates and Invertebrates. Vertebrates are animals with a vertebral column or backbone and Invertebrates are animals without a backbone. Invertebrates include organisms from the following phyla: Porifera‚ Cnidaria‚ Nematoda‚ Mollusca‚ Annelida‚ Arthropoda‚ Echinodermata‚ etc. Invertebrates can be further divided into two groups according to their level of complexity and specialization. These are: 1. Lower Invertebrates: This comprises of the phyla Protozoa‚ Porifera‚ Cnidaria‚
