Study Notes
Animal Classification
- Animal classification is crucial for understanding the diversity of animals and assigning a systematic position to newly described species.
- Different animals have different structures and forms.
Basis of Classification
- Fundamental features common to various animals are used for animal classification
- Cell arrangement
- Body symmetry
- Digestive, circulatory, or reproductive systems
Levels of Organisation
- All animals in Animalia are multicellular
- Different animals exhibit varying levels of cell organisation
- Cellular level: Cells are loosely arranged (e.g., sponges)
- Tissue level: Cells performing similar functions are grouped into tissues (e.g., coelenterates)
- Organ level: Tissues are grouped to form organs with specific functions (e.g., Platyhelminthes)
