Biology Animal Project II
Due January 11, 2010
Add to your journal of life forms one
representative from each of the following phyla (1) annelida (2)
mollusca (3) arthropoda and (4) echinodermata. For (5) chordata,
add a representative from the following classes: (A) osteicthyes
or chondricthyes (B) amphibia (C) reptilia (D) aves (E) mammalia.
Add (6) viroids to the last section (viruses and prions).
v
Use tabs to identify each section (1-5) of the
journal.
v
Prepare a decorative front cover and a plain back
cover.
v
Provide a table of contents. Number all pages.
v
Include labeled and colored diagrams of the
organisms.
v
Include a page at the end with a list of the
sources you used.
Use at least one
source other than the textbook.
v
Use at least one full page per type of
organism.
v
Place a phylogenetic tree of life directly
behind the table of contents.
v
Identify how the organisms:
·
obtain energy
·
dispose of waste
·
reproduce
·
maintain homeostasis
o
ectotherm, endotherm
·
circulate nutrients and oxygen
·
move signals throughout the organism (usually a
nervous and endocrine system)
v
Include important characteristics of body design
and/or cell structure.
v
Describe the organism’s habitat and where they
would be in a food chain/web.
v
Identify the domain, kingdom, phylum, class,
order, family, genus, species for each organism, as well as the
name of the organism.
Scoring Rubric: Insert this entire page at
