Q

what are basal animals and name the 4 phylums + examples of each phylum

A

basal animals are usually diploblastic with simple bodies, and branched off early in evolutionary history, so they retain characteristics of their common ancestor.
1. Porifera: sponges, no true specialized tissues or organs
2. Ctenophera: comb jellies
3. Cnidaria: sea anenomes, jellyfish, corals
4. Placozoa: marine blob

Q

Lophotrochozoa: Phylum Mollusca + organ functions

A
  1. common body build
  2. muscular foot for moving and digging
  3. mantle for protection and secreting shell materials
  4. visceral mass: contains all body organs
  5. radula: specialized feeding structure, scraping tongue
  6. open circulatory system (blood openly bathes organs + tissues, no vessels)
  7. mantle cavity: has gills or lungs, pumps water for filter feeding
  8. marine have trochophore larvae (cilia band)
