Mollusks are a diverse phylum of soft-bodied animals that usually have an external or internal shell. They include snails, slugs, clams, squids, and octopuses. The basic body plan of mollusks consists of a foot, mantle, shell, and visceral mass. The three main classes of mollusks are gastropods, bivalves, and cephalopods. Gastropods are shelled or shell-less mollusks that move using a foot, while bivalves have two shells held together by muscles. Cephalopods like squid and octopus have a head attached to a muscular foot that is modified into tentacles.
Roundworms of the phylum Nematoda have elongated cylindrical bodies covered in a tough cuticle. They have a complete digestive tract that is a tube-within-a-tube body plan. Nematodes possess a pseudocoelom rather than a true coelom. Segmented annelid worms are distinguished by their externally divided bodies. They also have a tube-within-a-tube body plan with a fluid-filled coelom between the inner and outer tubes. The coelom contains mesoderm and holds the body organs in place. Annelids are divided into three classes: Polychaeta, Oligochaeta, and Hirudinea.

- Though all animals are multicellular, all of them do not exhibit the same pattern of organisation of cells
- For example, in sponges, the cells are arranged as loose cell aggregates, i.e., they exhibit cellular
level of organisation. But, some division of labour (activities) occur among the cells
- In coelenterates, the cells performing the same function are arranged into tissues, hence is called
tissue level of organisation (Complex organization of cells)
- Organ level organization is exhibited by members of Platyhelminthes and other higher phyla where
tissues are grouped together to form organs, each specialised for a particular function
- In animals like Annelids, Arthropods, Mollusc Echinoderms and Chordates, organs have
associated to form functional systems, each system concerned with a specific physiological
function. This pattern is called organ system level of organisation
3. - Organ system in different animals exhibit various patterns of complexities
- For example, the digestive system in Platyhelminthes has only a single opening to the outside of
the body that serves as both mouth and anus, and is hence called incomplete
- A complete digestive system has two openings, mouth and anus. Circulatory system is also of two
types, Open and Closed
Symmetry
- Sponges are mostly asymmetrical, i.e., any plane that passes through the centre does not divide
them into equal halves
- When any plane passing through the central axis of the body divides the organism into two identical
halves, it is called radial symmetry, Coelenterates, ctenophores and echinoderms have this kind
of body plan
- Animals like annelids, arthropods, etc., where the body can be divided into identical left and right
halves in only one plane, exhibit bilateral symmetry
Diploblastic and Triploblastic Organisation
- Animals in which the cells are arranged in two embryonic layers, an external ectoderm and an
internal endoderm, are called diploblastic animals, e.g., coelenterates
4. - An undifferentiated layer, mesoglea, is present in between the ectoderm and the endoderm
- Those animals in which the developing embryo has a third germinal layer, mesoderm, in between
the ectoderm and endoderm, are called triploblastic animals (platyhelminthes to chordates)
5. Coelom
- The body cavity, which is lined by mesoderm is called coelom
- Animals possessing coelom are called coelomates, e.g., annelids, molluscs, arthropods,
echinoderms,
hemichordates and chordates
- In some animals, the body cavity is not lined by mesoderm, instead, the mesoderm is present as
scattered pouches in between the ectoderm and endoderm. Such a body cavity is called
pseudocoelom and the animals possessing them are called pseudocoelomates, e.g., Aschelminthes
- The animals in which the body cavity is absent are called acoelomates, e.g., Platyhelminthes
6. Segmentation
- In some animals, the body is externally and internally divided into segments with a serial repetition
of at least some organs
- For example, in earthworm, the body shows this pattern called metameric segmentation and the
phenomenon is known as metamerism (repetition of homologous organs)
Notochord
- Notochord is a mesodermally derived rod-like structure formed on the dorsal side during embryonic
development in some animals
- Animals with notochord are called chordates and those animals which do not form this structure are
called non-chordates, e.g., porifera to echinoderms
Classification of animals
- The Kingdom Animalia is classified according to the features mentioned based on common
fundamental
features as mentioned in the first slide of this presentation
8. Phylum – Porifera
- Members of this phylum are commonly known as sponges
- Sponges have a water transport or canal system. Water enters through minute pores (ostia) in the
body wall into a central cavity, spongocoel, from where it goes out through the osculum
- This pathway of water transport is helpful in
food gathering, respiratory exchange and removal
of waste
- Choanocytes or collar cells line the spongocoel and the canals.
- Digestion is intracellular
- Body is supported by a skeleton made up of
spicules or spongin fibres
- Sexes are not separate (hermaphrodite),
i.e., eggs and sperms are produced by the
same individual
9. - Sponges reproduce asexually by fragmentation and sexually by formation of gametes
- Fertilisation is internal and development is indirect having a larval stage which is morphologically
distinct from the adult
- Examples are Sycon (Scypha), Spongilla (Fresh water sponge) and Euspongia (Bath sponge)
Phylum – Coelenterata (Cnidaria)
- The name cnidaria is derived from the cnidoblasts or cnidocytes (which contain the stinging
capsules or
nematocysts) present on the tentacles and the body
- Cnidoblasts are used for anchorage, defense and for the capture of prey
- They have a central gastro-vascular cavity with a single opening, mouth on hypostome
- Digestion is extracellular and intracellular
- Some of the cnidarians, e.g., corals have a skeleton composed of calcium carbonate
- Cnidarians exhibit two basic body forms called polyp and medusa. The Polyp is a sessile and
cylindrical form like Hydra, Adamsia, etc. whereas, medusa is umbrella-shaped and free-swimming like
Aurelia or jelly fish
10.
11. - Those cnidarians which exist in both forms exhibit alternation of generation (Metagenesis), i.e.,
polyps produce medusae asexually and medusae form the polyps sexually (e.g., Obelia)
- Examples: Physalia (Portuguese man-of-war), Adamsia (Sea anemone), Pennatula (Sea-pen),
Gorgonia (Sea- fan) and Meandrina (Brain coral)
Phylum Ctenophora
- Ctenophores, commonly known as sea walnuts or comb jellies
- The body bears eight external rows of ciliated comb plates, which help in locomotion
- Digestion is both extracellular and intracellular
- Bioluminescence is well-marked in ctenophores
- Sexes are not separate. Reproduction takes place only by sexual
means. Fertilisation is external with indirect development
- Examples are Pleurobrachia and Ctenoplana
12. Phylum – Platyhelminthes (Flat worms)
- They have dorso-ventrally flattened body, hence are called flatworms
- These are mostly endoparasites found in animals including human beings
- Hooks and suckers are present in the parasitic forms. Some of them absorb nutrients from the host
directly through their body surface
- Specialised cells called flame cells help in osmoregulation and excretion
- Sexes are not separate. Fertilisation is internal and development is through many larval stages.
Some members like Planaria possess high regeneration capacity
Examples are Taenia (Tapeworm), Fasciola (Liver fluke)
13. Phylum – Aschelminthes (Round worms)
- The body of the aschelminthes is circular in cross-section, hence, the name roundworms
- Alimentary canal is complete with a well developed muscular pharynx
- Sexes are separate (dioecious), i.e., males and females are distinct
- Often females are longer than males. Fertilisation is internal and development may be direct (the
young ones resemble the adult) or indirect
- Examples are Ascaris (Roundworm), Wuchereria (Filaria worm), Ancylostoma (Hookworm)
14. Phylum – Annelida
- Their body surface is distinctly marked out into segments or metameres and, hence, the phylum
name
Annelida (Annulus – Little ring)
- They possess longitudinal and circular muscles which help in locomotion
- Aquatic annelids like Nereis possess lateral appendages, parapodia, which help in swimming
- A closed circulatory system is present. Nephridia (sing. nephridium) help in osmoregulation and
excretion
- Neural system consists of paired ganglia (sing. ganglion) connected by lateral nerves to a double
ventral
nerve cord
- Nereis, is dioecious, but earthworms and leeches are monoecious
- Reproduction is sexual
- Examples : Nereis, Pheretima (Earthworm) and Hirudinaria (Blood sucking leech)
15.

statocysts or
balancing organs are present
- Excretion takes place through malpighian tubules

(Spiny bodied)
- All are marine with organ-system level of organisation
- Digestive system is complete with mouth on the lower (ventral) side and anus on the upper
(dorsal) side
- Most distinctive feature of echinoderms is the presence of water vascular system which helps in
locomotion, capture and transport of food and respiration

cucumber) and Ophiura (Brittle star)
20.
21. Phylum – Hemichordata
- Hemichordata was earlier considered as a sub-phylum under phylum Chordata. But now it is
placed as a separate phylum under non-chordata
- Hemichordates have a rudimentary structure in the collar region called stomochord, a structure
similar to notochord
- This phylum consists of a small group of worm-like marine animals with organ-system level of
organisation
- They are bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic and coelomate animals
- The body is cylindrical and is composed of an anterior proboscis, a collar and a long trunk
- Circulatory system is of open type. Respiration takes place through gills. Excretory organ is
proboscis gland. Sexes are separate. Fertilisation is external. Development is indirect.
Examples: Balanoglossus and Saccoglossus
22. Phylum – Chordata

nerve cord and paired pharyngeal gill slits
- Bilaterally symmetrical, triploblastic, coelomate with organ-system level of organisation
- They possess a post anal tail and a closed circulatory system
A comparison of salient features of chordates and non-chordates
23. - Phylum Chordata is divided into three subphyla: Urochordata or Tunicata, Cephalochordata and
Vertebrata
- Subphyla Urochordata and Cephalochordata are often referred to as protochordates and are
exclusively marine
- In Urochordata, notochord (made up of Cartilage) is present only in larval stage in the tail, while in
Cephalochordata, it extends from head to tail region and is persistent throughout their life
- Examples are Urochordata – Ascidia, Salpa, Doliolum
Cephalochordata – Branchiostoma (Amphioxus or Lancelet)
24. - Members of subphylum Vertebrata possess notochord during the embryonic period
- The notochord is replaced by a cartilaginous or bony vertebral column in the adult
- Thus all vertebrates are chordates but all chordates are not vertebrates
- Besides the basic chordate characters, vertebrates have a ventral muscular heart, kidneys for
excretion and
osmoregulation and paired appendages which may be fins or limbs
25. Class – Cyclostomata
