Dive into the fascinating world of invertebrates - animals without backbones that make up about 97% of all... Show more
Invertebrates are animals that do not have backbones, making them fundamentally different from vertebrates like mammals, birds, and fish. Understanding these creatures starts with recognizing their body symmetry patterns.
Animals display three main types of symmetry. Asymmetrical animals lack organized symmetry altogether. Animals with radial symmetry have body parts arranged in a circular pattern around a central point (like a bicycle wheel). Those with bilateral symmetry can be divided into matching halves along a central plane (like your left and right sides).
Two important invertebrate phyla with distinctive features are Porifera and Cnidaria. Porifera (sponges) are sessile animals, meaning they cannot move from place to place. Cnidarians include jellyfish and sea anemones, which protect themselves using stinging tentacles and display radial symmetry.
Fun Fact Cnidarians like jellyfish have specialized stinging cells called nematocysts that can fire like tiny harpoons when triggered by touch!
The world of worms includes three distinct phyla with unique characteristics. Platyhelminthes (flatworms) lack a circulatory system and rely on diffusion to distribute nutrients. Some, like tapeworms, are dangerous parasites. Nematoda (roundworms) are mostly free-moving organisms that can spread through unwashed hands or raw fish. Annelida stand out with their segmented bodies and include familiar creatures like earthworms and leeches.
Mollusks form another fascinating phylum defined by their soft bodies and shells. All mollusks display bilateral symmetry but are divided into distinct classes. Gastropods are shelled mollusks like snails. Bivalves have distinctive hinged shells and include clams and oysters. Cephalopods (like octopuses) have long tentacles for catching prey and can squirt ink to confuse predators.
Cephalopods display remarkable adaptability, including the ability to manipulate skin colors for camouflage, making them among the most intelligent invertebrates.
Amazing Adaptation Octopuses can change both the color AND texture of their skin to blend perfectly with their surroundings in less than a second!
Echinoderms include sea stars, sand dollars, and sea urchins. Despite their adult radial symmetry, many echinoderms begin life with bilateral symmetry before transforming as they mature.
The phylum Arthropoda (meaning "jointed feet") is the largest animal group on Earth. These creatures have segmented bodies with smaller sections fused into larger body regions. They're protected by an exoskeleton that provides support and protection but requires them to molt as they grow.
Arthropods are divided into several classes with distinct features. Arachnids (like spiders) have eight legs total. Crustaceans include shrimp, crabs, and lobsters, which must periodically shed their rigid exoskeletons to grow. Insects are distinguished by having exactly six legs - a key difference from arachnids.
Did You Know? The total weight of all ants on Earth is roughly equal to the total weight of all humans! Arthropods truly dominate our planet by numbers and biomass.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
