• Fossils evidence from Ediacara Hills, Australia
show some of the earliest and most primitive
animals (575-543 mya). Altough these animals
were bilateral and segmented, they were probably
simple and with little internal specialization.
Beginnings of Invertebrate Diversity
(The Cambrian Explosion)

Burgess Shale fossil evidence shows that animals became
more diverse after the Cambrian period (544 mya). Some
animals had evolved shells, skeletons, and other hard body
parts - which were preserved as fossils.

Invertebrate Nervous Systems (Response)
Centralization: nerve cells are more concentrated.
Cephalization: ganglia are organized into a brain (controls body)
Specialization: special sense organs to detect light, sound, movement, etc.

Reproduction
Asexual: reproduce rapidly in favorable conditions (genetically identical)
Sexual: creates genetic diversity with a combination of sperm and egg

Porifera
Arthropoda
Reproduce asexually (budding)
or sexually by releasing sperm
which fertilizes and egg.
(external fertilization)
Reproduce sexually when male
deposits sperm inside the female
to fertilize eggs.
(internal fertilization)
