| vertebrate | is an animal has an endoskeleton and a backbone. |
| hermaphrodites | which produce both eggs and sperm in the same animal body. |
| zygote | is fertilization occurs when the sperm and the egg to form a fertilized egg. |
| internal fertilization | occurs when the sperm and egg combine inside an animal's body. |
| external fertilization | occurs when egg and sperm outside the animals body. |
| blastula | are cells continue to divide, forming a fluid-filled ball of cells. |
| gastrula | is a two-cell-layer sac with an opening at one end. |
| endoderm | is the inner layer of cells in the gastrula. |
| ectoderm | is the outer layer of cells in the gastrula. |
| mesoderm | froms between the endoderm and the ectoderm |
| symmetry | describes the similarity or balance among the body structures of organisms. |
| radial symmetry | can be divided along any plane, through central axis, into roughly |
| bilateral symmetry | means the animal can be divided into mirror image halves only along one plane through the central axis. |

| ventral | underside or belly |
| coelom | is fluid-filled cavity |
| pseudocoelom | is a fluid-filled body cavity that develops between the mesoderm and the endoderm. |
| acoelomates | are animals that do not have a coelom. |
| protosomes | are the mouth develops from the first opening of the gastrula |
| deuterostomes | are the anus develop from the first opening in the gastrula |
| filter feeder | is when a organism such as sponge its food by filtering small particles from water. |
| sessile | meaning they are attached to and stay in one place |
