| Phylum Porifera | sponges, sessile, double layered perforated body walls |
| Phylum Cnidaria | includes jellyfish and sea anemones, radial symmetry, central saclike digestion |
| Phylum Platyhelminthes | flatworms, bilateral symmetry and a head |
| Phylum Mollusca | Mollusks, example: snails, clams, and octopi. 3 regions: foot, visceral mass, and mantle |
| Phylum Annelida | Segmented worms. Closed circulation, mouth and anus, excrete through metanephridia |
| Phylum Arthropoda | Arthropods, example: insects, crabs, and spiders, 1 million different species. Jointed appendages, chitin exoskeleton, segmented body with head, thorax, and abdomen. Open circulatory system, excrete through malpighian |
