Placozoa

The **Placozoa** are an animal phylum, a primitive form of invertebrate. They are the simplest in structure of all metazoa. They have been described as "the simplest animals on Earth."

The Placozoa is usually considered to have only one species, ***Trichoplax adhaerens***, but there is enough genetic diversity that it is possible that there are multiple, morphologically similar species. Since 2018, three other species in two groups have been described.

## History

Franz Eilhard Schulze discovered them, in an aquarium in Graz, in 1883. There is no common name for the taxon. The scientific name literally means "flat animals".

Other zoologists opposed this description. In 1890, F.C. Noll argued that the animal was a flat worm (Turbellaria). In 1907, Thilo Krumbach published a hypothesis that _Trichoplax_ is not a distinct animal but that it is a form of the planula larva of the anemone-like hydrozoan _Eleutheria krohni_.  Schulze and others published articles that showed that this was not true. Despite this,  Krumbach's analysis became the standard textbook explanation. Nothing was printed in zoological journals about _Trichoplax_ until the 1960s.

## Description

_Trichoplax_ is a small, flattened, animal around a millimetre across. Like an Amoeba, it has no regular outline, although the upper surface is always flattened. The body consists of an outer layer of simple epithelium enclosing a loose sheet of cells. The epithelial cells bear flagella, which the animal uses to help it creep along the seafloor. Between these layers is the fiber syncytium, a liquid-filled cavity strutted open by star-like fibers.

_Trichoplax_ feed by absorbing food particles—mainly microbes—with their underside. They generally reproduce asexually, by dividing or budding, but can also reproduce sexually. Though _Trichoplax_ has a small genome in comparison to other animals, nearly 87% of its 11,514 protein-coding genes are similar to known genes in other animals.

## New discoveries

In the 1960s and 1970s renewed interest among researchers led to the discovery that the animals people had been studying are adults, not larvae.  This newfound interest also included study of the organism in nature (as opposed to aquariums).
Sipuncula

The **Sipuncula**, also known as the **Sipunculida**, or **peanut worms**, are a small phylum of marine worms, or they may be a class in the Annelida. The phylum has 144–320 species (estimates vary) of these bilaterally symmetrical, unsegmented worms.

## Anatomy

Sipunculans are worm-like animals ranging from  in length, with most species being under . The body consists of a narrow front section, called the _introvert_ and a larger trunk section. The introvert is retractable into the trunk.

Sipunculans have a coelom (body cavity), and a body wall somewhat similar to that of annelids. The body wall is strong and muscular. When threatened, Sipunculids can retract their body into a shape resembling a peanut kernel – a practice that has given rise to the name "peanut worm".

### Introvert

The most recognizable part of Sipunculan worms is their mouth, which is surrounded by a mass of 18–24 ciliated tentacles, all of which may be inverted into the body. The tentacles are used to gather organic detritus from the water or substrate, and probably also function as gills. The mouth and tentacles lie at the tip of the introvert, which is otherwise decorated with numerous spines or nodules. In contrast, the trunk tends to be relatively smooth.
Terrestrial

**Terrestrial** might mean:

- In astronomy it means a rocky planet like the Earth, as opposed to a gas giant like Jupiter. Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the terrestrial planets.
- In ecology it means an area of land, as in terrestrial ecosystem.
- In zoology, a terrestrial animal is one which lives on land.
- In botany: growing in the soil, not (for example) epiphytic.

Table (information)

A **table** of information is a set of facts arranged in rows and columns. It is a way of displaying information. It requires a medium, such as writing or print on paper, or a computer monitor. It is both a mode of visual communication and also a way to set out data.

A table consists of an orderly arrangement of rows and columns. The columns and rows usually have names or labels. Tables may include notes, headers, footers or other features. Like other graphic forms such as diagrams and illustrations, tables are often used together with prose. In books and articles, tables are often given numbers and captions.

Tables were the first way to print social and scientific data, before any other kind of graphics like graphs and charts. All the information about a modern society was recorded and published first as tables. Marriage certificates were written tables. Census results were recorded as tables, and later analysed in printed tables. All weather observations were published as printed numerical tables. Many kinds of reports to Parliament contained tables of data. Many of these methods were invented in Britain, because the government collected statistics about the population, and then published the results.

The use of tables is widespread in all types of communication, research and data analysis. Tables appear in print media, handwritten notes, computer software, architectural ornamentation, traffic signs and many other places. The details vary according to circumstances. Tables are extremely flexible, and can easily be constructed on computer and in print.

Tables are not always easy to understand, and there is a whole industry which takes table information and turns it into other forms, such as graphs and charts, for the benefit of the reader.

She fought for the rights of poor people, orphans, criminals, women, and children. She devoted most of her life to making change in South Australia. She strongly believed that women should be allowed to vote. Spence believed that everyone should get a good education. She was the first Australian woman to try to join the government.

She was lovingly called "the Grand Old Woman of Australia". In Scotland a plaque was made at her birthplace in 1999 (89 years after she died). She died in Adelaide, South Australia.

## Early life

Catherine Helen Spence was born in 1825 in Melrose, Scotland. She moved to South Australia with her family in 1839. She went to a small private school and got a good education.

## Activism

Catherine Helen Spence was an activist for many humans' rights. She made many public speeches on the subjects she thought were important. She wrote several books. She did not sign with her own name on the first few books she wrote. Her first book was about Australia. It was the first book about Australia created by a woman. She created a program that helped the poor and children without families. Spence was important to an organization that supported women’s right to vote. South Australia (the place she lived) became the first place to let women vote.

Spence wrote about wanting equality in the government and fairness towards women. She wanted women to be paid as much as men. She also wanted the environments that women worked in to be safe and healthy. Most people were not ready to accept her ideas in South Australia.

The **2002 Commonwealth Games** were held in Manchester, England from 25 July to 4 August 2002.

It was larger than London's 1948 Summer Olympics in numbers of teams and events (but not athletes) in the event.

Table (furniture)

A **table** is a piece of furniture with a flat top supported by one or more  legs. People put things on a table, often for a short time, for example food and knives and forks, etc. at a meal, cups for drinks, a book, a map, writing paper when writing, and things for hobbies.

We also put things on tables for a longer time, for example a TV, computer or decorations (pretty things). Often we put a cloth on the table, flat on the top. There are traditional ways of putting the cloth, knives and forks and food on the table for meals.

We can make some tables bigger, for example by pulling the top out. We can also fold some tables to transport them better, for example for camping. There are also small tables in trains and planes which we can fold or open. Some round tables come with a Lazy Susan. This is a rotating piece of wood in the center of the table. A table for use outdoors is called a picnic table.

Traditionally, tables in Japan, _chabudai_, are low, sometimes round tables, for tea and food.

The name of the international organization Mensa is from the Latin word for table.
