In the animal kingdom which group has the greatest number of species?
Arthropods, specifically beetles. There are around 350,000 species of beetle discovered so far.
What is an axial lobe?
An axial lobe is the longitudinal lobe found in various species of crustacean, fish, and arthropods, which runs down the centre of the animal.
What are the six subgroups used to classify organisms within kingdoms?
In life, a subphylum is a taxnomic rank intermediate between phylum and superclass. The rank of subdivision in plants and fungi is equivalent to subphylum. Not all phyla are divided into subphyla.
What living thing has the most species?
I did not honestly think I could find an accurate answer for you, but I did. There are about 30 different phyla. Phyla are groups of animals sharing the same body type. The 9 largest phyla contain the majority of the animal species of our planet. The arthropods, which contains insects, spiders, etc. is made up of about 75% of the animal species. There are more than 900,000 arthropods known and according to some may be as many as 5 million total different types of this particular phyla. the number for all known animal species NOT including arthropods is around 250,000. The most diverse insect within the arthropods are the beetles. There are more than 375,000 identified. Next would be butterflies and moths with over 100,000 different types. Some other phyla estimates are vertebrates 50,000, fish 20,000, birds 8,700, reptiles 6,000, mammals 4,500, and amphibians 2,500. Within the mammal phyla rodents are the most prevalent with 35 different families of rodents at 1,700 species.
What is the most abundant and diverse group of organisms?
InsectsNote: This answer is acceptable if by group you were asking for Class. But the most diverse "group" would be invertebrates, since they are ~95% of all animals. If you were asking for Phylum, it would be Arthropoda.Canis lupus would be an incredibly diverse species.
What class of arthropods make up around 90 percent of all known animal species?
The hexapoda subphylum containing the insecta class is the largest with around a million described arthropod species.
Are most of earths animal species arthropods?
There are many more arthropods than other species but bacteria have the most species. Every new species of arthropods discovered have 10-12 new species of bacteria in them.
What are inverebrae?
An invertebrate is an animal that has no backbone. Invertebrates account for 95 percent of all animal species and include mollusks and arthropods.
What animal is the member of subphylum?
Sub-phylum is a taxonomic group. A phylum can contain many sub-phylums which contain a huge diversity of species.
What animal produces coral?
subphylum Anthozoa

What is the largest phylum?
The largest phylum in the animal kingdom is Arthropoda, which includes insects, spiders, crustaceans, and other related organisms. It is estimated that over 80% of described animal species belong to this phylum.
In the animal kingdom which group has the greatest number of species?
Arthropods, specifically beetles. There are around 350,000 species of beetle discovered so far.
What are small arthropods?
On the biological ruler, arthropods tend towards the small end of the spectrum, owing to physical limits imposed by their methods for respiration, gas exchange and circulatory system; a high surface area to volume ratio serves them quite well on these counts. The smallest arthropods known are a crustacean parasite, Stygotantulus stocki, around a hundred micrometers long (about 4 thousandths of an inch).
Characterize the animal from the subphyla chelicerata?
The subphylum Chelicerata is an offshoot of the phylum Arthropoda. This subphylum includes spiders, scorpions, ticks, mites, horseshoe crabs and many other diverse species. Animals classified under Chelicerata can be herbivores, predators, scavengers, parasites or detritivores.
What is an axial lobe?
An axial lobe is the longitudinal lobe found in various species of crustacean, fish, and arthropods, which runs down the centre of the animal.
What kingdom are arthropods classified in?
Arthropods are classified in the animal kingdom (Animalia, or Metazoa).
