As part of your class display you must create a chart to compare and contrast the phyla, Arthropoda and Chordata, as to how they solve various physiological problems. This chart will also be included as part of a 5-10 page written report.

The phyla involved are Arthropoda and Chordata. The class to be studied under the phylum Arthropoda is the class Insecta. The classes in the subphylum Vertebrata are fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.
