Sponges absent
Cnidarians not jointed (Aquatic organisms, all have tentacles with nematocysts - stinging cells, used to capture food.)
Roundworms absent (AKA nematodes are unsegmented, colorless and do not have appendages).
Annelids not jointed (With the exception of leeches, all annelids have chitonous hair-like structures projecting from their cuticle. These appendages fulfill different functions in different species.)
Mollusks not jointed (Invertebrates that lack hard appendages such as legs or antennae)
Arthropods jointed (the arthropods are the only invertebrates to have jointed appendages)
Echinoderms not jointed (Due to their radial symmetry, all echinoderms have appendages which point outward from the center of the body like the spokes on a wheel.)
and vertebrate jointed
Molten Lava, and not solid like the crust.
If we take a look at the phylogenetic tree of bears presented in the picture above, we can see that the branch number one is the common ancestor to all living bear species, which means that the whole group has a uniform origin. and the
phylogenetic tree has a root. Therefore, the group is monophyletic, not <span>polyphyletic ( meaning that the whole group has the same origin) and not paraphyletic ( there is no group that has been excluded from the tree).</span>
