Classification Of Animals
(On the basis of Organisation, Symmetry, Coelom development)
- Kingdom
- Level of Organisation
- Symmetry
- Body Cavity or Coelom
- Phylum
Animals (Multicellular)
- Cellular level
- Mostly Asymmetrical
- Acoelomata
- Porifera
- Acoelomata
- Mostly Asymmetrical
- Tissue/Organ/ Organ system
- Radial
- Acoelomata
- Coelenterata (Cnidaria)
- Ctenophora

- Bilateral
- Without body cavity
(acoelomates)- Platyhelminthes

Phylum Chordata
- Subphyla
- Urochordata (or) Tunicata
E.g., Ascida- Protochordata
- Urochordata (or) Tunicata
- Cephalochordate
- Eg. Branchinostoma
- Protochordata
- Eg. Branchinostoma
- Exclusively marine
- In Urochordates, notochord present only in larval tail
- In cephalochordates, it is present from head to tail and persists life long.
Vertebrata
- Possess notochord only in embryonic stages.
- Notochord replaced by cartilaginous or bony vertebral column.
- Have ventral heart with 2, 3, or 4 chambers, kidneys for excretion,
- Have paired appendages (fins or limbs).
