Question
Chapter 30.4, Problem 3C
Summary Introduction
To draw: A cladogram illustrating the evolutionary relationships among three main clades of bilateral animals and the way in which they differ from one another.
Concept introduction: Animal phylogeny is the rapidly changing field. Biologists associate the variations in body symmetry, types of body cavity, number of tissue layers, and pattern of development. To interfere with the evolutionary relationships among the animal groups, biologists nowadays compare the embryonic developments and the molecular level of variations.
