🗑
A major group of animals; includes segmented worms.   Annelids  
🗑
A major group of animals; includes insects.   Arthropods  
🗑
Once of Georges Cuvier’s four embranchements; included segmented organisms such as insects.   articulates  
🗑
Group of terrestrial mammals that diverged into dolphins, porpoises and whales; modern species include sheep, goats and giraffes   Artiodactyls  
🗑
Single-celled prokaryotic ancestor of all life   bacteria

The closest living relative of humans.   Chimpanzee  
🗑
A major group of animals; includes humans.   chordates (or phylum Chordata)  
🗑
A modern species of lobe-finned fish.   Coelacanth

The blastula of this group of animals forms an invagination which eventually develops into the digestive tract.   Coelomates  
🗑
The genome of this plant has tripled in length over the past 5 to 10 million years.   cotton

Photosynthesizing bacteria.   Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae  
🗑
A group of organisms in which the blastopore opening develops into the anus.   Deuterostomes
