Summary Introduction

To determine:

The evolutionary relation between cnidarians to sponges and the clade holding flatworms, mollusks, and annelids.

Concept introduction:

The animal kingdom is divided into nine major phylum. The nine major animal phyla is organized based on shared features of the appearance of animals, physiology, embryonic development, reproduction, body symmetry, digestive tract and body cavity. The organisms from each phylum share some similarities as they evolved from a common ancestor. The nine major animal phyla are organized from the least evolved sponges to the advanced Chordata.

Draw a simplified animal tree of life, indicating therelationships among sponges, cnidarians, protostomes,and deuterostomes
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.  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 1) and 2) only. Reposting question for other two to be answered.
