GLOBBY ACTIVITY : VERTEBRATE AND
INVERTEBRATE ANIMALS
HI, MY NAME IS GLOBBY!
1. What type of animal am I?
2. Whichis mykingdom?
3. Am I a vertebrate orinvertebrate?
4. What type of mammal am I: placental,marsupial or
monotreme?(explainyouranswer) (hint:readpage 97)
5. What ismy scientificname? Then…Whatismygenus?and
species?
2.
3. NOW, imagine that Globbyhasbeentransformedanditisneitheramonotreme,nora mammal,nora vertebrate…
Now GLOBBY IS AN
INVERTEBRATE!
Try to draw …
how would GLOBBY look like if it was:
1. PORIFERA – like coral - shapedlike asac, thickbodyfull of pores.(pg105)
2. CNIDARIA – like jellyfish- radial symmetry,softbodywithtentacles,mouth
and anus together (page 105)
3. PLATYHELMINTHES – long,soft,flatbodydividedintosegments –mostare parasites- page 106
4. NEMATODE- thincylindrical bodywithpointedends.page 106
5. ANNELIDS – longbodydividedintoringcalledmetameres.Nolegsbuthair-like structures(likeearthworms) -
page 107
6. MOLLUSC
a. Gastropod- large foot,shell (Spiral shaped),well developedhead with2pairsof tentacles.(Ex: snail.
Page 109)
b. Bivalve- no head,shell with2parts. –page 109-
c. Cephalopod- well developedhead –page 109-
7. ARTHROPOD
a. Myriapod- thorax and abdomenfusedandsegmented,one pair(Centipede) ortwoof legs(millipede)
persegment. One pairof antennae,simpleeyes,apairof chewingmouthparts(page 110)
b. Arachnid – Abdomenandcephalotorax withfourpairsof legs.( page 111)
c. Crustacean – Ceophalotorax,twopairsof antennae andfive pairsof legs- frontlegsare claws.And
abdomen,lastsegmenthastail fins.( page 111)
d. Insect – Head,witha pairof antennae and2 compoundeyes;thorax with3 pairsof legsplusone or
twopairs of wings;anda segmentedabdomen.( page 112)
8. ECHINODERMS- radial symmetry,noseparate head,mouthonthe underside,ex:starfish(page 114)
