Answer 2

1. D

2. C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Look at each of the answer choices to eliminate them:

A) Yes; animals do have a blastula stage of development, which comes after the morula (ball of 32 cells) has formed ---- eliminate

B) Yes; all animals are multicellular. This is one of the traits that distinguishes animals from unicellular protists, prokaryotes, etc ---- eliminate

C) Yes; some animals can reproduce asexually. For example, certain crabs, lizards, and even the Komodo Dragon can do so ---- eliminate

D) No; animals do not have cell walls. This is one of the key characteristics that distinguish animals from plants ---- this is the correct answer.

2. Cnidarians inherently have two types of body forms: the polyp and the medusa. The polyp is cylindrical and fixed in place; it doesn't move. However, the medusa is umbrella-like and can move around - picture a jellyfish. Thus, the answer is C.

Hope this helps!
