CHARACTERISTICS OF ANIMALS • Multicellular • Eukaryotic • Heterotrophic (ingestion) • No cell walls • Nervous & muscle tissue • Sexual reproduction • Hox genes
ANIMAL DIVERSITY BASED ON BODY PLAN 4) Protostome/Deuterostome 3) Body cavity 2) Symmetry 1) Tissues
SYMMETRY Anterior/posterior Dorsal/ventral Cephalization (movement) Germ layers: diploblastic/triploblastic
BODY CAVITY • Acoelomate – no body cavity between digestive tract & outer wall • Pseudocoelomate – cavity not completely lined by tissue from mesoderm • Coelomate – fluid filled cavity completely lined by tissue from mesoderm • * cushions organs, allows for growth & movement • * hydrostatic skeleton (earthworms)

ANIMAL PHYLOGENY
Porifera • (parazoans) tissues • sponges
Cnidaria – gastrovascular cavity, stinging cells, polyp & medusa • Scyphozoa • jelly fish • Hydrozoa • hydra, • Portuguese man o’war • Anthozoa • coral, sea anemones

Motion.Gills (Blood Vessels) Examples: clam worm, lugworm, sand worm Other names: Bristle Worms Environment: marine, land, parasites Interesting Fact: Pompeii Worm is endemic to the hydrothermal vents of the Pacific Ocean. Clam Worm Parapodia --- polysaccharide chitin
Fig 34-2. Chordate characteristics. All chordates possess the four trademarks of the phylum: a notochord; a dorsal, hollow nerve cord; pharyngeal slits; and a muscular, postanal tail.
