What is the cephalization of a mollusca?
The cephalization of a mollusca could possibly describe the arrangement of neurons in the front end of the animal.
What invertebrate group was the first to show cephalization?
The first invertebrate group to exhibit cephalization was likely the flatworms (phylum Platyhelminthes). Cephalization is the evolutionary process of concentration of sensory structures (such as eyes and other sense organs) and nervous tissues at the anterior end of an organism, forming a head region.
What is the relationship between the degree of cephalization and the complexity of the animal?
Cephalization refers to the concentration of sensory and neural structures in the head region of an organism. Generally, animals with a higher degree of cephalization tend to exhibit more complex behaviors and cognitive abilities. This is because a concentrated nervous system in the head allows for more efficient processing of information and is often associated with higher levels of intelligence.
Adult frogs used these to move around instead of a tail?
legs
Is cephalization present in osteichthyes?
Osteichtyes are bony fish, so basically every type of fish save for sharks and rays. Cephalization is the formation of a head with senses (eyes, nose etc.) and a brain. Bony fish have a clear head with a brain, so yes, it is present.
