Intro to the Kingdom Animalia
1. Multicellular
tissues
organs & organ systems
2. No cell walls
ECM with collagen
3. Chemoheterotrophic
ingestion & internal digestion
glycogen
4. diploid dominant LC [Fig 10-19a]
5. diverse body plans
6. most can move
sessile
7. unique tissues: muscle & nervous
8. reproduction
cleavage
gastrulation
metamorphosis
zygote -> embryo-----> blastula -> gastrula ------> larva ------------>
