Ch. 32 CPE: Intro to Animal Diversity
1. How many animal species have been identified and how many animal species are there predicted to be?
3. Regarding nutritional requirements, how do animals differ from plants and fungi?
4. What do animals lack that plants and fungi have?
5. In relation to #4, how do animals stick together? Sounds funny I know.
6. Any specific cells animals have?
7. How do most animals reproduce? n/2n?
8. Describe embryo development.
9. Diagram and explain fig. 32.2.
10. Pg. 627, right column, first parag. Explain, “the underlying genetic network that controls animal development has been relatively
conserved.”
11. What is the role of Hox genes?
12. In fig. 32.4, it says “protoanimal”. Based on the drawing and reading, explain this term.
13. Create a 4-column chart. In each, list an era (including time frame) and describe what scientists know. Pay most attention to the
Cambrian explosion.
14. Draw any animal with bilateral symmetry and label it’s dorsal, ventral, anterior, and posterior ends. Include lateral and medial.
15. Describe the advantages/disadvantages of different types of symmetry?
16. Describe “coelom” and body cavity organization.
17. Select one of the five “Points of Agreement” relating to phyogenetic arrangement of animals. Describe this point and it’s
significance.
