Full Transcript

Join the Amoeba Sisters in exploring some general animal characteristics, major vocabulary used in classifying animals (such as symmetry, protostome vs deuterostome, cephalization, and coelom), and take a general tour of 9 major animal phyla. Of the phyla mentioned, 8 of them consist completely of invertebrate animals. While each phylum discussion will be brief, we encourage you to explore more in this video description! And remember - there are plenty of fascinating animal exceptions. Table of Contents: 00:00 Intro 1:11 What Is An Animal? 1:57 Symmetry 2:33 Cephalization 2:57 Protostomes vs Deuterostomes 3:52 Triploblastic Animals 4:20 Coelom 4:50 Start of Phylum Tour 4:55 Porifera 5:28 Cnidaria 6:03 Platyhelminthes 6:34 Nematoda 7:32 Mollusca 8:04 Annelida 8:32 Arthropoda 9:09 Echinodermata 10:00 Invertebrate vs Vertebrate Animals 10:30 Chordata 11:45 More to Explore --------------- FACTUAL REFERENCES: Clark, Mary Ann, et al. “Biology 2e.” Openstax.org, OpenStax, 28 Mar. 2018, openstax.org/books/biology-2e/pages/27-1-features-of-the-animal-kingdom.

We mention that the larvae of echinoderms (like the sea star) have bilateral symmetry while generally most echinoderm adults have radial symmetry. It's a fascinating phylum.
