Chapter 30.4, Problem 1C
Summary Introduction
To describe: The way in which the animals are classified based on the type of symmetry.
Concept introduction: Animal phylogeny is the rapidly changing field. Biologists mostly depend on the fossils to compare the similarities of body plan and the pattern of development to determine the evolutionary relationships among various animal groups. Throughout evolutionary history, there are various changes seen in body plans. These changes in the body plan provide clues to animal relationships.
