What Are the Major Animal Phyla?
You should be able to match the common name
to the Phyla and explain it’s impact on humans
What Are the Key Features of Animals?
Animals possess all of the following
characteristics
– Multicellularity
– Their cells lack a cell wall
– They obtain energy by consuming other
organisms
– Most reproduce sexually
– They are motile at some point in the life cycle
– They are able to respond rapidly to external
stimuli
Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch Points
on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Most animal phyla that currently populate Earth
were present by the Cambrian period (544
million years ago)
– The scarcity of pre-Cambrian fossils led
systematists to search for clues about the
evolutionary history of animals by examining
features of:
–Anatomy
–Embryological development
–DNA sequences
23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Certain features represent evolutionary
milestones, and mark major branching points on
the animal evolutionary tree
– The appearance of tissues
– The appearance of body symmetry
– Protostome and deuterostome development

23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Lack of tissues separates sponges from all other
animals
– Tissues are groups of similar cells that carry out a
specific function (e.g., muscle)
– Sponges are the only modern-day animals that lack
tissues
Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch Points
on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Animals with tissues exhibit either radial or
bilateral symmetry
– Symmetrical animals have an upper (dorsal)
surface and a lower (ventral) surface
– Symmetrical animals are divided into two groups:
–Animals that exhibit radial symmetry
–Animals that exhibit bilateral symmetry

23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Animals with radial symmetry can be divided into roughly equal halves by any plane that passes through the central axis – Animals with radial symmetry have two embryonic
tissue (germ) layers
– Ectoderm, which is an outer layer that covers the body, lines its inner cavities, and forms the nervous system
– Endoderm, which is an inner layer that lines most hollow organs
– Bilaterally symmetrical animals have three embryonic tissue (germ) layers
– A layer of mesoderm between the ectoderm and endoderm
23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Bilaterally symmetrical animals have heads
– Animals with bilateral symmetry can be divided
into mirror-image halves only along one plane
that runs down the midline
– These animals exhibit cephalization, the
concentration of sensory organs and a brain in a
well-defined head, with definite anterior (head)
and posterior regions

23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Most bilateral animals have body cavities
– Body cavities are fluid-filled cavities between the digestive tube and the outer body wall
23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Body cavity structure varies among phyla
– The most common body cavity is a coelom, a
fluid-filled body cavity that is completely lined
with mesoderm
–Phyla with animals that have this type of body
cavity are called coelomates, and include
annelids, arthropods, mollusks, echinoderms,
and chordates (which include humans)

Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch Points
on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
– A body cavity that is not completely surrounded
by mesoderm is known as a pseudocoelom
–Phyla with animals that have this type of body
cavity are called pseudocoelomates and
include roundworms, such as nematodes

23.2 Which Anatomical Features Mark Branch
Points on the Animal Evolutionary Tree?
Bilateral organisms develop in one of two ways based on embryological development
– Protostome development
– In these animals, the body cavity forms within the space between the body wall and the digestive cavity
– These animals include nematodes, arthropods, annelids, and mollusks
– Deuterostome development
– In these animals, the body cavity forms as an outgrowth of the digestive cavity
– Echinoderms and chordates are deuterostomes

23.3 What Are the Major Animal Phyla?
Sponges have a simple body plan
– Sponges belong to the phylum Porifera and are found in most marine and aquatic environments
–Sponges do not move, but occur in a variety of sizes and shapes
–They may reproduce asexually by budding, where the adult produces miniature versions of itself that drop off and assume an independent existence
–They may reproduce sexually through fusion of sperm and eggs

23.3 What Are the Major Animal Phyla?
Some sponges contain chemicals useful to
humans
– A number of chemicals within sponges have
proved to be valuable medicines
–The drug spongistatin is an emerging
treatment for the fungal infections that sicken
AIDS patients
–Some medicines derived from sponges
include some promising new cancer drugs
23.3 What Are the Major Animal Phyla?
Sponges lack true tissues and organs
– The sponge body is perforated by tiny pores
through which water passes, and by fewer, large
openings through which water is expelled
– As water passes through the sponge, oxygen is
extracted, and microorganisms are filtered out
and digested by individual cells

23.3 What Are the Major Animal Phyla?
Cnidarians are well-armed predators
– Sea jellies, sea anemones, corals, and
hydrozoans belong to the phylum Cnidaria
– These animals are mostly marine and are all
carnivorous predators
– The cells of cnidarians are arranged into distinct
tissues, including a contractile muscle-like tissue
