Bilaterally symmetrical and acoelomate animals are exemplified by:
1. Platyhelminthes
2. Aschelminthes
3. Annelida
4. Ctenophora
All vertebrates are chordates but all chordates are not vertebrates, why?
| 1. | Notochord is replaced by a vertebral column in the adults of some chordates. |
| 2. | The ventral hollow nerve cord remains throughout life in some chordates. |
| 3. | All chordates possess a vertebral column. |
| 4. | All chordates possess notochords throughout their lives. |
| 1. | include amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals |
| 2. | are especially well adapted for fresh water |
| 3. | have physiological mechanisms for conserving water |
| 4. | typically excrete ammonia |
| 5. | gave rise to the amphibians |
