The chordates are named for the notochord: a flexible, rod-shaped structure that is found in the embryonic stage of all chordates and also in the adult stage of some chordate species.
It is located between the digestive tube and the nerve cord, providing skeletal support through the length of the body.
In some chordates, the notochord acts as the primary axial support of the body throughout the animal's lifetime.

The invertebrates, or invertebrates, are animals that do not contain bony structures, such as the cranium and vertebrae. The simplest of all the invertebrates are the Parazoans, which include only the phylum Porifera: the sponges.
Parazoans (“beside animals”) do not display tissue-level organization, although they do have specialized cells that perform specific functions. Sponge larvae are able to swim; however, adults are non-motile and spend their life attached to a substratum.
Since water is vital to sponges for excretion, feeding, and gas exchange, their body structure facilitates the movement of water through the sponge. Structures such as canals, chambers, and cavities enable water to move through the sponge to nearly all body cells.
A vertebrate is an animal with a spinal cord surrounded by cartilage or bone. The word comes from vertebrae, the bones that make up the spine. Animals that are not vertebrates are called invertebrates. Vertebrates include birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals

Multicellular Organism And Origin Hypothesis Of MulticellularityMahmud Hasan
Having more than one cell is generally known as a multicell or multicellular organism. Multicellular organisms evolved from prokaryotic cells. Scientists are provided several kinds of hypotheses about the origin of multicellularity. This PPT provides information about both multicellular organisms and also those hypotheses of the origin of multicellularity.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. EVOLUTIONARY PERSPECTIVE
◦Animals with multicellular and tissue levels of organization
have captured the interest of scientists and laypersons alike.
◦A description of some members of the phylum Cnidaria, for
example, could fuel a science fiction writer’s imagination:
◦From a distance I was never threatened, in fact I was infatuated
with its beauty.
4. ◦A large, inviting, bright blue float lured me closer. As i swam
nearer i could see that hidden from my previous view was an
infrastructure of tentacles, some of which dangled nearly nine
meters below the water’s surface!
◦The creature seemed to consist of many individuals and I
wondered whether or not each individual was the same kind of
being because, when I looked closely, I counted eight different
body forms!
5. ◦I was drawn closer and the true nature of this creature was
painfully revealed.
◦The beauty of the gas filled float hid some of the most hideous
weaponry imaginable.
◦When I brushed against those silky tentacles I experienced the
most excruciating pain. Had it not been for my life vest, I
would have drowned. Indeed, for some time, I wished that had
been my fate.
6. ◦Swimmers of tropical waters who have come into contact with
Physalia physalis, the
◦Portuguese man-of-war, know that this fictitious account rings
true in organisms such as Physalia physalis, cells are grouped
specialized for various functions, and interdependent.
◦This chapter covers three animal phyla whose multicellular
organization varies from a loose association of cells to cells
organized into two distinct tissue layers. These phyla are the
Porifera, Cnidaria, and Ctenophora.
8. ◦ The tentacles shown here can be up to 9 m long and are laden with
nematocysts that are lethal to small vertebrates and dangerous to
humans.
◦ A bluish float at the surface of the water is about 12 cm long. It is
not shown in this photograph. The entire organism is actually a
colony of polypoid and medusoid individuals.
9. ORIGINS OF MULTICELLULARITY
◦Multicellular life has been a part of the earth’s history for
approximately 550 million years.
◦Although this seems a very long time, it represents only 10%
of the earth’s geological history.
◦Multicellular life arose quickly in the 100 million years prior to
the Precambrian/Cambrian boundary, in what scientists view as
an evolutionary explosion.
10. CONT..
◦These evolutionary events resulted not only in the appearance
of all of the animal phyla recognized today, but also 15 to 20
animal groups that are now extinct.
◦Since this initial evolutionary explosion, most of the history of
multicellular life has been one of extinction.
◦The evolutionary events leading to multicellularity are
shrouded in mystery.
11. Many zoologists believe that multicellularity could have arisen
as dividing cells remained together, in the fashion of many
colonial protists.
Although variations of this hypothesis exist, they are all treated
here as the colonial hypothesis (fig 2)
A second proposed mechanism is called the syncytial
hypothesis (fig 3)
13. ◦A syncytium is a large, multinucleate cell.The formation of
plasma membranes in the cytoplasm of a syncytial protist
could have produced a small, multicellular organism.
◦Both the colonial and syncytial hypotheses are supported by
the colonial and syncytial organization that occurs in some
protist phyla.
14. ANIMAL ORIGINS
◦A fundamental question concerning animal origins is whether
animals are monophyletic (derived from a single ancestor),
diphyletic (derived from two ancestors), or polyphyletic
(derived from many ancestors).
◦ The view that animals are polyphyletic is attractive to a
growing number of zoologists.
15. CONT..
◦The nearly simultaneous appearance of all animal phyla in
fossils from the Precambrian/Cambrian boundary is difficult to
explain if animals are monophyletic.
◦If animals are polyphyletic, more than one explanation of the
origin of multicellularity could be possible, and more than one
body form could be ancestral.
16. ◦Conversely, the impressive similarities in animal cellular
organization support the view that all or most animals are
derived from a single ancestor.
◦For example, asters form during mitosis in most animals,
certain cell junctions are similar in all animal cells, most
animals produce flagellated sperm, and the proteins that
accomplish movement are similar in most animal cells.
17. ◦These common features are difficult to explain, assuming
polyphyletic origins.
◦If you assume one or two ancestral lineages, then only one or
two hypotheses regarding the origin of multicellularity can be
correct.
