Good morning students.

So, Day 1 concluded. We entered Animal Kingdom and trying to explore their amazing world. To summarize day 1 contents, we had a discussion on need for classification and the basis for classification.

1. Levels of structural organization: - Cellular (Porifera) - Tissue (Coelenterata and Ctenophora) - Organ (Platyhelminthes) - Organ System (all other phyla)

2. Body Symmetry: Radial Symmetry (Coelenterata, Ctenophora and adult Starfish) and Bilaterial Symmetry (all triploblasts and larval forms of snail and starfish)

*** adult Snail is asymmetrical while adult Star fish exhibits pentamerous radial symmetry.

3. No. of germinal layers: - Diploblasts (Coelenterata and Ctenophora) and Triploblasts (Platyhelminthes to Chordata).

you can find below the link to the chapter 'ANIMAL KINGDOM' from NCERT I PU Biology Textbook.
