  • Organisms belonging to phylum Arthropoda have jointed appendages. Here, arthros means joint and poda means appendages. E.g. Apis, Anopheles, Culex, etc.
  • Phylum Echinodermata includes spiny skinned organisms. Here echinos means hedgehog (spiny mammal) while derma means skin. They also have a skeleton made up of calcium carbonate. E.g. Sea star, sea urchins, etc.
  • The body of molluscs is unsegmented with a distinct head, muscular foot and a visceral hump. Foot is used for locomotion. E.g. Snails, mussels, etc.
