Level 1 Animals Part 1 Review Sheet
Organize your notes in the following order:
1. Study guide packet with homeworks
2. Notes packet - Evolution of animals includes info on levels of organization, type of body plan
(sac or tube-within-a-tube), symmetry, type of coelom, and segmentation
3. Notes packet –

 Phylum Cnidaria – jellyfish, hydra, Portuguese man-of-war, coral, sea anemone – p. 2
 Phylum Platyhelminthes – planaria, fluke & tapeworm – p. 3-4
 Phylum Nematode – ascaris, guinea, pin, hook, trichina, filaria – p. 5-6

Test questions will be based on the following main ideas:
 Be able to identify, describe, and explain the significance of the following criteria used
to classify organisms:
i. Level of organization
ii. Type of body plan
iii. Symmetry
iv. Presence of coelom
v. Segmentation
 Be able to describe the animals in the following phyla based on the above
characteristics: Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nematodes. In other words, be
able to tell me the level of organization, type of body plan, symmetry, whether it is
segmented or has a coelom.
 Be able to identify examples of animals in each of the above listed phyla.
 Be able to make comparisons between animals within each of the above listed phyla.
 Be able to make comparisons between animals in the different phyla in terms of the
basic body plan characteristics (organization, body plan, symmetry, coelom,
segmentation).
 Be able to identify (in general – specific structure names not necessary) how animals
in each phyla perform the basic processes of life – support, movement, response,
feeding & digestion, reproduction, internal transport, respiration, excretion.
 Be able to make comparisons between the different phyla in terms of how they
perform the following life processes – support, movement, response, feeding &
digestion, reproduction, internal transport, respiration, excretion.
