Chapter 32, Problem 3IQ
Summary Introduction

To compare: The body plans of sponges, cnidarians, and bilateral animals.

Introduction: Animals are multicellular eukaryotes and have heterotrophic (ingest food and digest it by certain digestive enzymes) mode of nutrition. Sponges have specialized cells, and many of them live on coral reefs. Cnidarians are aquatic invertebrates. The bilateral animals possess bilateral symmetry and they generally fit the lifestyle of an organism.

Compare and contrast the Phyla Porifera and Cnidaria. Think: Symmetry, Form and function, Tissue layers (present or absent, if present which are represented), Musculature/how they move, Reproduction, Nervous system and sensory structures, Respiration, Digestion (and how they feed), and comment on unique cell types found in each.
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. Use Lesson 12 (Chapter 32) and Lesson 13 (Chapter 33) as a guide. 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 3) and 4) ONLY. Thank you.
Explain the importance of the presence of symmetry (radial and biradial) and presence of true tissues in the biological proccesses of cnidarians and ctenophores.   Radial/biradial symmetry True tissues Reproduction     Development     Body support     Locomotion
