Evolutionary Milestones
-Very simple organism
-Formed a stomach and flagellated cells to create the flow of water
Porifera

Demospongiae
-Formed a nervous system
-Created various modes of defense
Cnidaria

Anthozoa
-Segmented parts
Platyhelminthes

Cestoda
-Formed a more advanced digestive
system
-More efficient (2 openings)
Nematoda

Secernentea
-Has a coelom to protect vital body organ systems
-Developed both circulatory system & digestive system
Annelida
Polychaeta
-Features a mantle
-Has feet for quicker and easier movement
-Developed a more advanced digestive and circulatory system
Mollusca

Octopoda
-Has jointed legs
-Exoskeleton made out of chitin
-Developed gills or internal airways with jointed appendages

Insecta

Formicidae
-Radial symmetry
-No head
-Has nerves that circle from the mouth and extend to its arms
Echinodermata
Asteroidea
-Formed a backbone
-Most complex organ and organs systems
Chordata
Cephalochordates
Tunicates
Vertebrate
Agnathans
Gnathostomata
Adaptations to Terrestrial Life
-Jawed fish
-Nostrils allow sense
of smell
-Hard skeletons which
start to form to protect
the organs of the body
Chondrichthyes

Pristidae
-Live in water and land
-Form both gills and lungs
Amphibia

Dendrobatidae
-Air breathing vertebrates
-Live only on land
-Have developed modes for
quicker movement and strong
defense
Reptilia

Crocodylus acutus
-Have feathers instead of hair
-Learned to fly
Aves

Agapornis
-Have fur/hair which allows for insulation
-Adapted to have full working internal
systems and different modes of nutrition
Mammalia
Major Groupings
-Only living mammals
where females lay eggs
-Reproduce sexually
-Solitary animals during
mating season
Monotremes

Ornithorhynchidae
-Give early birth to a
fetus which climbs from
mothers birth canal
-Superior to monotremes
because there is more
protection for the zygote
Marsupials

Vombatidae
-Substances are passed from the
mother to the fetus in order for
it to stay longer in the womb until
mature
-Superior to marsupials as zygotes
are healthier due to placenta
-Also have ability to get away from
prey quicker so zygote does not die

Reproductive Structure/Strategies
-Sexual Reproduction
-Reproduce through
fruiting club fungi
Basidiomycota
Agaricomycetes
-Uses both asexual reproduction
and sexual reproduction
-Sexual reproduction occurs only when conditions
are unfavorable and cannot reproduce asexually
-Asexual reproduction happens through the use of spores
-Sexual is through the use of conjugation
Zygomycota

Kickxellomycotina
-Asexual reproduction
-"Imperfect Fungi"
Deuteromycota

Hyphomycetes
-Asexual reproduction
-Reproduce through
releasing haploid
conidiophores
-Have sacs for spores
