CLASSES:
Porifera, Arthropoda, Cnidaria, Chordata, Echinodermata, Nematoda, Platyhelminthesis, Annelida, Mollusca.
CHARACTERISTICS:
- Multi-cellular
- Autotrophic
-Have animal cells
-Flexible cell membranes
-No chloroplasts
Not all animal phyla possess a backbone or true tissues. Additionally, not all animal phyla exhibit bilateral symmetry or segmentation. Some phyla, like sponges, lack specialized organ systems, while others, like cnidarians, have a simple nerve net instead of a centralized nervous system.
Phyla is plural for Phylum. It is used in animal taxonomy and is the category between kingdom and class. Animals in the same phylum have the same degree of developmental similarity. There is a total of 36 animal phyla that all animals fall under and the largest phylum is Arthropoda.
Phyla are determined by major anatomical features. Does the organism have a spine? Is there a skeleton, and if so is it internal or external? Does it have a shell? Is it motile or sessile? Does it conduct photosynthesis? How many limbs does it have? Does it have hair? Does it have feathers? Does it have eyes? And so forth.
There are around 35 recognized animal phyla and 11 recognized plant phyla, making a total of approximately 46 phyla across the animal and plant kingdoms.
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.
Cnidaria
The kingdom of organisms that exhibit characteristics from various phyla is the kingdom Animalia. Animals encompass a wide range of phyla with diverse characteristics, such as chordates, arthropods, and mollusks, among others. This diversity is a key feature of the animal kingdom.

The major phyla of animal-like protists are Sarcomastigophora, Ciliophora, Apicomplexa, and Zoomastigophora. One phylum that is not part of the animal-like protists is the Euglenozoa, which is a group of flagellated protozoans that are primarily photosynthetic rather than animal-like in nature.
The phylum Arthropoda is not one of the major phyla of animallike protists. Arthropoda belongs to the animal kingdom and includes insects, spiders, and crustaceans, while animallike protists are members of the protist kingdom.
Phylum
There are around 35 recognized animal phyla and 11 recognized plant phyla, making a total of approximately 46 phyla across the animal and plant kingdoms.
There are more than two phyla in the animal kingdom... There are many phyla in the animal kingdom. There are a few phyla of worms and other invertebrates and then you have the vertebrate ohyla. Unless that's what your asking? Did you want the invertebrate and vertebrate in general phyla? That's the only set of 2 things I can think of.
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.
