Summary Introduction
To determine: The filter-feeding apparatus of sea squirts along with similarity and differences between the mode of feeding between these two groups and amphioxus.
Introduction: The cyclostomes or the lampreys modify and evolve with passing time, to form modern fishes with the complete development of jaws. The cephalochordates are advanced than the urochordates and evolve into jawless fishes called the cyclostomes.

For the phylum Gastrotricha please provide: -
-- General biology. Approximately how large is the phylum? What do they look like? In what types of environments are they found? What do they eat? Do they have any unique body structures? --Phylum features. Protostome vs deuterostome vs?? Type of digestive system, circulation, respiration, mode of reproduction (note some of these structures may be absent or not known in which case say that don’t just leave them out). --Phylogenetic position. What other phyla are close relatives? What features do they share? Show recently accepted phylogeny.
Find illustrations of the excretory and digestive system of Phylum Platyhelminthes, Phylum Annelida and Phylum Chaetognatha. Explain how each differ from each other.
In Hydrozoans such as the Obelia pictured above, what do gastrozooids and
gonozooids have in common, and what are their respective functions?
They are both medusae; gastrozooids produce polyps via budding, and gonozooids filter
particles from the water to feed
They are both polyps: gastrozooids filter particles from the water to feed, and gonozooids
produce reproductive medusac via budding
They are both medusae: gastrozooids filter particles from the water to feed, and gonozooids
produce polyps asexually via budding
They are both polyps; gastrozooids filter particles from the water to feed, and gonozooids
produce additional polyps via asexual budding
