Question

1. Which of the following traits is not characteristic of animals? (1 point) multicellular body structure composed of cells with cell walls heterotrophic food-getting pattern composed of eukaryotic cells 2. Which of the following describes the MOST important difference between invertebrates and vertebrates? (1 point) Vertebrates contain multiple tissues, while invertebrates do not. Invertebrates contain multiple tissues, while vertebrates do not. Vertebrates contain a backbone, while invertebrates do not. Invertebrates contain a backbone, while vertebrates do not.

Answer 1

1. Animal cells do not contain cell wall. Its a plant cell feature. Plants are autotrophs where as animal are heterotrophs.

Step-by-step explanation:

2. Vertebrates are the one which contain the vertebral column or backbone. Invertebrates lack such backbone. Phylum chordata contains the sub-phylum vetebrata.

Answer 2

The answers would be:

1. Cell wall

2. Vertebrates contain a backbone, while invertebrates do not.

The cell wall is found in a plant cell. This is one of the features of a plant cell that makes it different from animal cells. Other features in the plant cell that is not in the animal cell are presence of chloroplasts and a large vacuole.

2. The word vertebrate comes from vertebrae, which are the bones that make up our spine or in other words, backbone.

The word invertebrate can be broken down to give you a more obvious explanation: In - means without.
