Ventral e.
Segmentation f.
Cephalization
13.
Why are cephalization and bilateral symmetry advantageous?
14.
What is a coelom or body cavity? Why are body cavities important and useful for animals? Give at least 3 reasons.
15.
Choose an animal that starts with the same letter as your first name. Use your book’s appendix E to find the Phylum or Class. Then use the index to find the Phylum or Class in the textbook. Make a chart of the 7 essential functions and describe how they are carried out in your animal. Determine your animal’s symmetry and whether it is a protostome or deuterostome.
