Summary Introduction
To describe: The characteristics of the marine animal for the determination of the phylum, to which the creature should be assigned.
Introduction: The animals are majorly divided into the two groups aquatic animals and terrestrial animals. The aquatic animals and terrestrial animals are included in the same category, so they show some similarities, but they also differ because of their habitat. So, the animals are classified and the phylum is determined by analyzing the distinct features of the animals.

Give an overview of the different characteristics of the major animal phyla using the table below
Your colleague is studying a newly discovered organism. She is becoming increasingly convinced that the organism is an arthropod. You find that you must respectfully disagree when you note that the organism has a set of distinctly non-arthropod characteristics. The features that cause you to exclude the organism from the arthropod grouping are
antennae, six legs, and mandibles.
pseudocoel, closed circulatory system, and ventral heart.
Malpighian tubules, ommatidia, and tagmata.
jointed legs, ecdysis, and an exoskeleton.
compound eyes, book lungs, and a hemocoel.
