What are 9 phylums?

Answer 1

The nine major animal phyla are: Porifera(sponges) · Nematoda(roundworms) · Mollusca(mollusks) · Cnidaria(jellyfish and polyp) · Annelida(earthworms) · Echinodermata(echinoderms like sea stars) · Platyhelminthes(flatworms like tapeworms) · Arthropoda(Spiders and insects) · Chordata(vertebrates)

Answer 2

Below are the ten well-known phyla:

Protozoa Annelida

Porifera Echinodermata

Coelenterata Molluska

Platyhelminthes Arthropoda

Nethelminthes Chordata

Protozoa-are tiny,single-celled organisms.They are very small and can be seen only by a microscope or they are"microscopic".

Examples:

amoeba,paramecium,euglena.

Poriferans-are the simplest of the many-celled animals.Their bodies are made of hollow tubes with pores or openings on the sides.

Examples:

All kind of sponges

Coelentra-is divided into two separate phyla.These are ctenophra and cnidaria.

Examples:

hyra,jellyfish,sea anemones,and corals

Platyhelminthes-is composed of the flatworms,animalswith soft bodies.

Examples:

planarians,liver fluke,tapeworm

Nemathelminthes-roundworms with thin bodies.

Examples:

ascaris,hookworm,trichinella

Annelida-have round bodies with rings and divisions called segments.

Examples:

earthworm,leech,sandworm

Echinodermata-are animals characterized by spines in their bodies.

Examples:

starfish,sea urchin,sand dollars,sea cucumbers

Mollusks-have soft,fleshy bodies with no segments.

Examples:

clams,snail,octopus,squid

Arthropods-have segmented bodies.They have hard outer covering made up of protein and a tough limelike substance called chitin.

Examples:

centipede,lobster,crab,spider,insects,scorpion,ticks,mites

Answer 3

In no particular order:

Chordates

Echinodermata

Platyhelminthes (Flatworms)

Nematodes (Roundworms)

Annelids (Segmented Worms)

Arthropods

Porifera (Sponges)

Molluscs (Shells)

Answer 4

A phylum is a subdivision after kingdom in biological terms. It divides animals into different groups based on their body plans.

There are several different phylums in the different kingdoms. Under the Kingdom Animalia there are Phylum Chordata, Phylum Arthropoda, Phylum Mollusca, Phylum Porifera, Phylum Annelida, Phylum Echinodermata, Phylum Nematoda, and the list goes on.

Answer 5

Annelida

2. Anthropoda

3. Chordata

4. Cnidaria

5. Echinodermata

6. Mollusca

7. Nematoda

8. Platyhelminthes

9. Porifera

Answer 6

The nine major animal phyla are Porifera, cnidaria, annelida, arthropoda, chordata, echinodermata, mollusca, platyhelminthes, and Nematoda.

Answer 7

Some examples of phyla are Arthropoda (insects, spiders), Chordata (vertebrates), Mollusca (snails, squids), Annelida (segmented worms), and Porifera (sponges).
