in general are divided into 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

of their similar body plan and segmentation. The other hypothesis is that arthropods evolved more recently from a nematode ancestor than an annelid like ancestor because of their shared ecdysis trait. Hypothesis 1 Nematoda Annalida Arthropoda Hypothesis 2 Annalida Nematoda Arthropoda Reasoning: The morphological data that supports hypothesis one is that annelids and arthropods both have segmented bodies‚ dorsal circulatory systems‚ ventral nervous systems‚ and appendages. The morphological

Genus: Toxocara Species: Toxocara canis How they’re spread: Roundworms are quite common in animals‚ who easily spread the infection when the worm eggs develop into larvae and are in the animals feces. Pets get the infection by eating infected soil‚ licking contaminated fur or paws‚ or drinking contaminated water. If the pet is a female and had babies‚ the babies

Cestoda is the name given to a class of parasitic flatworms‚ of the phylum Platyhelminthes. Informally biologists refer to them as Cestodes. The most notorious species commonly are called tapeworms‚ for example Taenia solium‚ the "pork tapeworm". Cestodes are all parasitic and their life histories vary‚ but typically they live in the digestive tracts of vertebrates as adults‚ and often in the bodies of other species of animals as juveniles. Over a thousand species have been described‚ and all vertebrate

Animal Phyla Lab Adapted from “Phylum Lab” produced by the National Aquarium in Baltimore The diversity of animal life on Earth is astounding. Each animal has a unique body plan which allows it to survive and adapt to its given surroundings. With such an abundance of species‚ classifying animals into different categories is necessary. At first the diversity of animals can be overwhelming‚ but after further research and observation‚ many likenesses appear. These similarities become the basis for

These are parasitic‚ living in other organisms where they can cause serious disease such as schistosomiasis (See Sadava‚ Fig. 31.15‚ and pp 695-696). Other flat worms are native to salt water‚ fresh water‚ or moist soil. Platyhelminthes are the simplest bilaterally symmetric and triploblastic animals (meaning
