Chapter 32 An Overview of Animal Diversity About 40% of the questions in this chapter are either scenario questions or art questions, which typically involve higher-order thinking. Among these are two new sets of scenario questions, each devoted to a single-species animal phylum. The first pertains to the (possibly) basal animal known as Trichoplax, and the second to the bizarre phylum found only on lobster lips, the Cycliophora. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) Both animals and fungi are heterotrophic. What distinguishes animal heterotrophy from fungal heterotrophy is that only animals derive their nutrition by
A) preying on animals.
B) ingesting it.
C) consuming living, rather than dead, prey.
D) using enzymes to digest their food.
Answer: B
Topic: Concept 32.1
Skill: Knowledge/Comprehension 2) The larvae of some insects are merely small versions of the adult, whereas the larvae of other insects look completely different from adults, eat different foods, and may live in different habitats. Which of the following most directly favors the evolution of the latter, more radical, kind of metamorphosis?
A) natural selection of sexually immature forms of insects
B) changes in the homeobox genes governing early development
C) the evolution of meiosis
D) the development of an oxidizing atmosphere on Earth
E) the origin of a brain
Answer: B
Topic: Concept 32.1
Skill: Application/Analysis 3) Which of the following is (are) unique to animals?
A) cells that have mitochondria
B) the structural carbohydrate, chitin
C) nervous conduction and muscular movement
D) heterotrophy
E) Two of these responses are correct.
