Difference between Animal and Nephrozoa

Animal vs. Nephrozoa

Animals are multicellular eukaryotic organisms that form the biological kingdom Animalia. Nephrozoa is a major clade of bilaterians, divided into the protostomes and the deuterostomes, containing almost all animal phyla and over a million extant species.

Similarities between Animal and Nephrozoa

Animal and Nephrozoa have 38 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acanthocephala, Annelid, Arthropod, Bilateria, Brachiopod, Bryozoa, Chaetognatha, Chordate, Clade, Coelom, Deuterostome, Ecdysozoa, Echinoderm, Entoprocta, Extinction, Flatworm, Gastrotrich, Gnathostomulid, Hemichordate, Holocene, Kinorhyncha, Lophotrochozoa, Loricifera, Mollusca, Nematode, Nematomorpha, Nemertea, Onychophora, Phoronid, Phylum, ..., Platyzoa, Priapulida, Protostome, Rotifer, Spiralia, Symbion, Tardigrade, Xenacoelomorpha.

Acanthocephala

Acanthocephala (Greek ἄκανθος, akanthos, thorn + κεφαλή, kephale, head) is a phylum of parasitic worms known as acanthocephalans, thorny-headed worms, or spiny-headed worms, characterized by the presence of an eversible proboscis, armed with spines, which it uses to pierce and hold the gut wall of its host.

Annelid

The annelids (Annelida, from Latin anellus, "little ring"), also known as the ringed worms or segmented worms, are a large phylum, with over 22,000 extant species including ragworms, earthworms, and leeches.

Arthropod

An arthropod (from Greek ἄρθρον arthron, "joint" and πούς pous, "foot") is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages.

Bilateria

The Bilateria or bilaterians, or triploblasts, are animals with bilateral symmetry, i.e., they have a head (anterior) and a tail (posterior) as well as a back (dorsal) and a belly (ventral); therefore they also have a left side and a right side.

Brachiopod

Brachiopods, phylum Brachiopoda, are a group of lophotrochozoan animals that have hard "valves" (shells) on the upper and lower surfaces, unlike the left and right arrangement in bivalve molluscs.
