| In all but the simplest animal phyla, there is _________ among cells. | specialization |
| A _____ is a group of similar cells, held together by cell junctions | tissue |
| Cell junctions serve what purpose? | To perform a common function |
| ________ are composed of more than one type of tissue and are specialized for a certain function. | Organs |
| Heterotrophy | They obtain complex organic molecules from other sources, usually by ingestion. |
| The ability to move results from the interrelationship of muscle tissue and nervous tissue, or _____. | Neurons |
| Taxonomists have grouped animals into several phyla by comparing their: | fossils, body symmetry, patterns of embryo development, macromolecules, such as rRNA |
