Echinodermata c. Urochordata d. VertebrataWhat evolutionary adaption has enable Arthropods to be the most diverse group within the animal kingdom?

I - A highly efficient tracheal system for gas exchange, that directly penetrates inside cells. II - An ability to learn and display complex behavior patterns III - An exoskeleton, segmentation, and versatile appendages for feeding, locomotion, and protection IV - An ability to fill multiple niches through metamorphosis V - Compound eyes that form high resolution images equivalent to the human eye. I and II II and III II, III, and IV I, II, III, and IV All of the options are correctWhat are examples of the following groups of vertebrates: Chondrichthyes, Actinopterygii, Actinistia, Dipnoi, and Tetrapoda? How many species are in each of the above groups? Which one has the most species? When did the first vertebrates appear, and when did they first live on land? Where do we find the earliest fossils of vertebrates, and where do we find the earliest fossils of terrestrial (land-living) vertebrates? What are the following and how are they related to humans: Pongo, Gorilla, Pan, Sahelanthropus, Ardipithecus, Australopithecus, Homo erectus, and Homo neanderthalensis? Which of these is our closest living relative? What are some of the traits that these organisms share with us? When and where did each of the extinct forms above live? What does this tell us about when our lineage split from the most recent ancestor we share with our closest living relative?What are some characteristics that allowed for the evolutionary success of arthropods?
- Create a concept map or an illustration drawing for each phylum (annelida, Platyhelminthes, nemotod, echinoderms, chordata) that will help you classify invertebrate animals into that groupWhich of the following is the correct classification for the following chordate animal: This animal has a skeleton made of bone. Most modern day fish are in this group. They use gills to breathe and have a swim bladder to help control buoyancy. They also have a lateral line to detect vibrations in the water. Question 29 options: a) Superclass Agnatha b) Urodela / Salamanders c) Anura / Frogs d) Marsupial e) Class Osteichthyes f) Reptiles (non avian) g) Monotreme h) Birds i) Cephalochordata j) Eutharia k) Class Chondrichthyeswhat do fossils tell us about the evolutionary history of the animal kingdom?

Gut? Coelom?) a. Mollusca b. Arthropoda c. Echinodermata . List representatives of the four most abundant groups of echinoderms: d. ChordataWhat are the characteristics common to all arthropods? List all of them.Create a body plan table (Insert → Add Table) for the following animal phyla: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Mollusca, Annelida, Nematoda, Arthropoda, Echinodermata, and Chordata. Describe each phylum by identifying the following body plan features. Use Lesson 12 (Chapter 32) and Lesson 13 (Chapter 33) as a guide. 1) Symmetry: Asymmetrical, Radial, or Bilateral 2) Tissue type: Parazoa, Eumetazoa (diploblastic), or Eumetazoa (triploblastic) 3) Body cavity (if triploblastic): Acoelomate, Psuedocoelomate, or Coelomate 4) Developmental mode (if Coelomate): Protostome or Dueuterostome Note: Depending on the body plan, features 3 & 4 may not apply to specific phyla. * Please answer 3) and 4) ONLY. Thank you.
