Question

Match the following:

Phylum	Characteristics

1. Mollusca | a) Trunk
2. Hemichordata | b) Mantel
3. Porifera | c) Tentacles bearing
4. Coelenterate | d) Collar cells
5. Cyclostomata | e) Tunie
6. Urochordata | f) Sucker

Answer 1

The animal kingdom consists of all the animals. These include animals having primitive body type to complex body organisation. The primitive body animals do not have an organ system of organisation. They also lack a proper blood vascular system.

Complete answer:
-Phylum Mollusca has a unique feature of having a mantel in its body. Mantel is the hard shell formed of calcareous deposits which covers the body of the organism. It helps the organism to provide protection to the soft internal organs.
-Phylum Hemichordate have their body divided into proboscis, collar and a trunk. The trunk is the long-elongated part of their cylindrical body.
-Phylum porifera has a special characteristic of presence of collar cells in their body. They are marine animals and have either radial symmetry or are asymmetrical. Their body is usually cylindrical.
-Phylum Coelenterata consists of a special feature of tentacles present on their bodies. Only this phylum has the presence of tentacles in it. The tentacles are also called cnidocytes.
-Phylum cyclostomata have parasitic animals present. they have suckers present on their body which help them to attach to their host. The hooks and suckers both help them in their attachment.
-Phylum Urochordata has the presence of a tunic. Tunic is a rigid but also a flexible body covering. Animals present in the phylum are the plankton feeders.

Phylum	Characteristics

1. Mollusca | b) Mantel
2. Hemichordata | a) Trunk
3. Porifera | d) Collar cells
4. Coelenterate | c) Tentacles bearing
5. Cyclostomata | f) Suckers
6. Urochordata | e) Tunie

Note:
The animals have different body symmetry ranging from radial symmetry to bilateral symmetry. They also live-in different habitats which include marine and land animals. They also have different eating habits.
