Identifying Animal Phyla

Now that you have gotten an overview of each of the Animal Phyla from viewing the videos your next task is to develop a deeper knowledge of each Phyla. Using your note sheet and The Shape of Life:The Animals website from PBS you will need to navigate the website and fill in the correct information on your packet.

Your tasks for this page are the following:
- Find at least five characteristics of each Phyla - what do they look like, how do they eat, where do they live, etc.
- A list of three animals that belong to each Phyla - you may need to look beyond this page to find three
- One interesting/unusual fact about each Phyla - this could be about the whole Phyla or an individual animal that belongs to a Phyla
