What are some of the characteristics of animal bodies that biologists have used to classify animal phyla?
Biologists use characteristics such as body symmetry, presence of tissues, body cavity structure, and digestive system type to classify animal phyla. Other features like presence of a backbone, mode of reproduction, and presence of specific body structures are also taken into account for classification. These characteristics help scientists group animals into different phyla based on shared evolutionary traits.

Animals belonging to the same phyla share similar body plans and characteristics. For example, animals in the phyla Chordata, which includes vertebrates like mammals, birds, fish, and amphibians, share a notochord and dorsal nerve cord during their development.
