Summary Introduction
Introduction: Animals are classified in the domain Eukarya and the kingdom Animalia. Biologists traditionally classified animal diversity in terms of developmental and morphological features of animal body plans. The main features included body symmetry, number of germ layers and specific characteristics during embryonic development. Molecular data studies have resulted in major revisions to phylogenetic trees that were previously based on morphological data.
