Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the vast subject of invertebrate animals by first introducing the characteristics that differentiate them from plants and other animal groups before going on to explore the seven invertebrate sub-kingdoms. Within the invertebrate sub-kingdoms, readers will find accessible descriptions of animals ranging from familiar species like sea urchins and lobsters to lesser-known organisms such as monera and gregarines. Thematic explorations of the similarities, adaptations, and reproductive strategies found in these diverse creatures build on the zoological knowledge base established by the author. Details such as the life history of the sea-spider or the curious behavior of the anemone provide compelling insights into the biology of these fascinating creatures. The author's extensive use of visual aids, including over 50 illustrations, allows readers to visualize the subjects under discussion, while clear explanations and a glossary of terms make this a comprehensive and accessible guide to invertebrate zoology.
