Class Anthozoa  (sea anemone and coral fossils)
Class Anthozoa likely appeared in the Precambrian, though the fossil record is sparse and inconclusive. Several soft-bodied Vendian animals are now thought to be early Anthozoa. Sequence analyses also supports the theory that Anthozoa are the first branch of the Phylum Cnidaria (Bridge et al. 1992). Only a few CaCO3-secreting corals or coral-like organisms are known from the early Cambrian (e.g., Sorauf and Savarese 1995), and the Cothoniida, are known from the middle Cambrian.

Cnidarians
4. Cnidarians have an ectoderm and endoderm, both of which are germ layers. Animals with only two germ layers are called diploblastic animals. The ectoderm produces the epidermis and the endoderm produces the covering of the digestive cavity. 1  Image Diversity: germ layers.


Class Anthozoa  (sea anemone and coral fossils)
Anthozoans do not have a medusa stage in their development as do other cnidarians. Rather, they release sperm and eggs that form a planula that attaches to a surface on which they grow. A coral head contains thousands of genetically identical polyps, each typically a few millimeters in diameter.


Class Anthozoa  (sea anemone and coral fossils)
Corals are marine organisms of class Anthozoa (Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Cnidaria, Class Anthozoa) that typically live in large colonies of identical individuals. They are important reef builders in tropical seas, and are secretors of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) that forms their hard skeleton.


Oldest Known Jellyfish Fossils Found
View full size image. The oldest known fossils of jellyfish have been found in rocks in Utah that are more than 500 million years old, a new study reports. The fossils are an unusual discovery because soft-bodied creatures, such as jellyfish, rarely survive in the fossil record, unlike animals with hard shells or bones.


Oldest Known Jellyfish Fossils Found
You can see a distinct bell-shape, tentacles, muscle scars and possibly even the gonads, said study team member Paulyn Cartwright, also of KU. The rich detail of the fossils allowed the team to compare the cnidarian (the phylum to which jellyfish, coral and sea anemones belong) fossils to modern jellyfish.


Cnidarians
Morphologically, cnidarians are classified as polyps or medusae. Polyps are cylindrical and medusae are circular convex, like an umbrella. Both shapes have tentacles. In general, polyps are sessile although some species, such as Hydra, can move by alternating contact points on the substrate and performing somersaults. Medusae can move expelling water jets through contracting their bodies. Some cnidarians alternate between polypoid and medusoid forms during their life cycle.


Cnidaria: Fossil Record
Cnidaria: Fossil Record. Many of the very best cnidarian fossils date back to the time when animals first appear in the fossil record, the Vendian. Since then, the fossil record of cnidarians without mineralized skeletons is quite sparse, and restricted to unusual sites with excellent fossil preservation. On the other hand, cnidarians which possessed hard skeletons, in particular the corals, have left a significant legacy of their existence.


Oldest Known Jellyfish Fossils Found
Fossil evidence of jellyfish dates back to the Cambrian Period, 500 million years ago. This fossil jellyfish shows similarity to the modern jellyfish, Cunina (right). It was one of four different types of jellyfish dated back to the Cambrian by researchers in 2007.

Sprain vs. Strain: Whatâs the Difference?
The signs of most sprains or strains are very similar: pain and inflammation, and sometimes bruising, at the injured area. Depending on the severity of the sprain or strain, the pain may be mild, moderate, or severe. The more severe the sprain or strain, the more difficult it is to use the affected area. Someone with a mild ankle sprain may just favor that ankle slightly, while a more severe ankle sprain may cause much more pain and make it difficult or impossible to walk.


Knee Sprain
Knee sprain explained. The sprain will occur in one or more of the knee ligaments. A Medial ligament sprain will cause pain on the inside of the knee and is usually a result of an impact on the outside of the knee. A Lateral ligament sprain sprain will result in pain on the outside of the knee joint and is often caused by an impact on the inside of the knee. The cruciate ligaments cross over in the middle of the knee and provide forwards and backwards stability.


-
A knee sprain can be painful but is not a serious injury. If you have been diagnosed with a knee sprain, you may have some pain, swelling and bruising. To recover as soon as possible from a knee sprain, you need to follow a four step treatment plan, commonly referred to as R.I.C.E.--rest, ice, compress, elevate.


-
Try to keep weight off your knee and walk as little as possible. Ice down your knee to help relieve inflammation and pain. Put ice cubes or crushed ice in a sealable plastic bag. Wrap the bag in a towel or cloth. Place the ice pack on your knee for 20 minutes, four times a day. Continue treating your knee with ice for at least three days. Compress your knee by wrapping it with an elastic bandage. Wrap the bandage tightly enough to support your knee, but not so tight that it cuts off your circulation.


-
Most people with mild sprains and strains can treat these injuries at home with the use of RICE care (see below). But more severe sprains and strains should be seen by a doctor. The doctor may take an X-ray to look for a fracture, or other testing to determine the degree of severity of the sprain or strain.


-
Apply heat to your knee to alleviate stiffness after the first three days. Though the initial treatment for a sprained knee is ice, after a few days you should switch to a heating pad. Apply heat for 20 minutes, four times per day or as needed for stiffness and pain.

1 A sprain is a stretch or tear in a ligament (the bands of fibrous tissue that connect our bones at the joints).  A strain is also a stretch or tear, this time affecting the muscle itself or a tendon (the tissue that connect the muscles to the bones).


Overview
By Mayo Clinic Staff. A sprained ankle is an injury that occurs when you roll, twist or turn your ankle in an awkward way. This can stretch or tear the tough bands of tissue (ligaments) that help hold your ankle bones together. Ligaments help stabilize joints, preventing excessive movement. A sprained ankle occurs when the ligaments are forced beyond their normal range of motion. Most sprained ankles involve injuries to the ligaments on the outer side of the ankle. Treatment for a sprained ankle depends on the severity of the injury. Although self-care measures and over-the-counter pain medications may be all you need, a medical evaluation might be necessary to reveal how badly you've sprained your ankle and to put you on the path to recovery.


Knee Sprain
Stage 1: Rest, Ice, Elevate and Compress to reduce swelling, pain and bruising. If necessary, use crutches to enable the knee to rest and reduce the weight on the knee, until pain allows full weight bearing. You may be prescribed anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to ease the pain.

Sprains and strains are used interchangeably to describe everything from a twisted ankle to a pulled hamstring, but they are two specific injuries. A sprain is a stretch or tear in a ligament (the bands of fibrous tissue that connect our bones at the joints).

What does polarity mean?
Best Answer: With respect to covalent bonds, polarity refers to the tendency of electrons to move towards one of the atoms. Polarity in covalent bonds arises from differences in electronegativity between the participating elements.For example, the covalent bond in a molecule of water, H2O, is polar.Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, so the end of the molecule containing the oxygen atom has a partial negative charge.or example, the covalent bond in a molecule of water, H2O, is polar.

Genetics
The father of genetics is Gregor Mendel, a late 19th-century scientist and Augustinian friar. Mendel studied 'trait inheritance', patterns in the way traits were handed down from parents to offspring.He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete units of inheritance.he modern working definition of a gene is a portion (or sequence) of DNA that codes for a known cellular function or process (e.g. the function make melanin molecules). A single 'gene' is most similar to a single 'word' in the English language.


-
In breeding, half of the genes from each parent are passed on to the offspring. This may include many undesirable genes for traits that are not wanted in the new organism. Genetic engineering, however, allows for the movement of a single, or a few, genes.NA is a universal language, meaning the genetic code means the same thing in all organisms. It would be like if all cookbooks around the world were written in a single language that everyone knew. This characteristic is critical to the success of genetic engineering.

RNA polymerase
As complex molecule composed of protein subunits, RNA polymerase controls the process of transcription, during which the information stored in a molecule of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA.NA polymerases have been found in all species, but the number and composition of these proteins vary across taxa. For instance, bacteria contain a single type of RNA polymerase, while eukaryotes (multicellular organisms and yeasts) contain three distinct types.


Percent of babies born on due date?

Riding rigid isnât for everyone, but if youâre going to do it there is no better tool you can put on the front end of your bicycle. Made from 100% uni-directional carbon fiber, the ENVE Mountain Fork is lightweight and stiff in all the right places. All ENVE forks are constructed in one-piece from the top of the steerer tube to the bottom of the dropouts. This construction method means that there is no-bonding, bladder materials, or excess weight in the fork, just uninterrupted carbon fibers. Additional features that add the experience of going it rigid are one of a kind reversible drop out chips that let riders fine tune the fork rake to their bike and preferred style.


Carbon Bicycle Forks: Cautions, Facts and Misconceptions
Fifteen years ago, dire warnings were made about aluminum forks. In spite of those warnings, the aluminum fork failure rate isnât significantly worse than any other fork material.

Bug Bite Pictures. By Patrick Mahaney, VMD. Bug bites and stings are common occurrences faced by all pet owners. Just as numerous are the types of bugs that go after our beloved dogs and cats. Thatâs why recognizing, treating, and preventing bug bites is an essential component of responsible pet ownership.


Insect bites and stings
Bites from mosquitoes and fleas are more likely to cause itching than pain. The skin reaction to insect bites and stings usually lasts for up to a few days. However, in some cases the local reaction can last for up to two years. These bites are sometimes misdiagnosed as other types of benign or cancerous lesions.


Swollen Eyelids: Causes, Treatments, and When to Worry
Orbital cellulitis is a potentially serious infection of the eyelids. The infection can extend behind the eyes, causing meningitis. It is suspected when there is painful swelling of the upper and lower eyelids, fever, bulging eyes, vision problems, and pain with eye movement (or inability to move the eyes).


7 Common Bug Bites on Dogs and Cats
Bug Bite Pictures. Bug bites and stings are common occurrences faced by all pet owners. Just as numerous are the types of bugs that go after our beloved dogs and cats. Thatâs why recognizing, treating, and preventing bug bites is an essential component of responsible pet ownership. To help with the first part, here are a few common bugs your pet may encounter and clinical signs associated with their bites.


Insect bites and stings
Insect bites and stings occur when an insect is agitated and seeks to defend itself through its natural defense mechanisms, or when an insect seeks to feed off the bitten person. Some insects inject formic acid, which can cause an immediate skin reaction often resulting in redness and swelling in the injured area.


Eye - Swelling
1 Swelling of 1 eye is often due to an insect bite. Mosquito bites are a common cause. It can also be from an irritant e.g. food transferred to the eye by the hands.  Suspect mosquito bites if there are bites on other parts of the body. Insect bites of the upper face can cause the eyelid to swell. This can last for a few days. With insect bites, the swelling can be pink as well as large.

Call 911. Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelids that can cause swollen lids, often with flaky eyelid skin and loss of the lashes. This chronic condition should be managed by an eye care specialist. Bug bites are the most common cause of swollen eyelids we see in our office.

As the owner of a life insurance policy, you can generally borrow the policy's cash surrender value and use the proceeds for any purpose. Before you take a policy loan, be sure you understand the implications of the loan on the policy itself as well as any tax implications, now and in the future.


What is a Life Insurance Policy Loan?

Sometimes the unexpected happens and you need cash. Borrowing from your life insurance policy is one option. Your cash-value whole, universal or variable universal life policy can appear a tempting source for a bailout, especially if you've been paying into it for years.


Are life insurance loans a bad idea?
On the surface, a policy loan appears simple: You can typically borrow up to the cash value you've accumulated in the account. If you have a variable universal life policy, the insurer will move the loan collateral (a cash sum equal to your loan amount) out of your investment fund and into a guaranteed or fixed fund.


-
You can borrow against your life insurance policy, and the loan proceeds are generally not taxable to you (unless the policy is a modified endowment contract (MEC), see sidebar). A loan from a MEC is treated as a distribution from the MEC.


-
1 Interest charged on a life insurance policy loan is generally not deductible for income tax purposes. 2  You can stop interest on your life insurance loan from accruing, simply by paying the interest out-of-pocket. 3  Ask your insurer about any processing fees that may be associated with the loan.


-
An outstanding loan is generally treated as an amount received if a policy is surrendered or lapsed and may result in taxable income. Example: You have a life insurance policy with a cash surrender value of $200,000. You have paid premiums of $75,000. You also have an outstanding policy loan of $175,000.
