Q

Animals traits

A

Multi-cellular heterotrophs by ingestion
Have no cell walls
Most have muscle and nervous tissue for movement and responding to a changing environment
Exhibit diploid dominant life-styles
(Reproduce sexually using flagellated sperms and non motile eggs that are haploid. Gametes fuse together to make diploid zygote. The zygote will continue to grow, by mitosis, and develop into the organism)

Q

These are “without a cavity” animals (They tend to be very small - diffusion/osmosis is main transport system)
