Chapter 21, Problem 14WIO
Summary Introduction
To enlist:
The evidence that are used by the biologist to classify earthworms, caecilians and snakes in different clades regardless of the superficial similarities among these animals.
Concept Introduction:
Earthworm, caecilians and snakes are all included in group eumetazoans characterized by bilateral symmetry and three germ layers. Earthworm belongs to the group annelids. Snakes and caecilians are vertebrate chordates. Earthworm comes under the clade protostomes whereas snake and caecilians are included under deuterostomes. Snakes are classified into class reptilia and caecilians are classified into class amphibia.

Charles a Biology student in California has found at the beach an animal he cannot name. What are some of the questions that he should ask to help determine the phylum of the animal? Based on the data that you recorded during this lab do you see a relationship between symmetry, cephalization, and number of germ layers? Can you tell what germ layer appears last? Name three characteristics or features in the phyla studied that you could tell are ancestral or primitive and three that you may call advance?
