A biologist discovers a new animal in a marine environment that has hexagonal radial symmetry. Of the following methods, which will best help him classify this organism with the deuterostomes or with some other group such as the ctenophores, sponges, or placozoans?
A.) Dissect the animal to see whether or not it has a notochord. B.) Raise the animal in the lab and trace its embryological development. C.) Observe the animal's feeding behavior. D.) Analyze the animal's mode of reproduction.

B.) Raise the animal in the lab and trace its embryological development

Explanation:Embryological development is the process through which embryos forms and develop in animals,embryological development can also be termed as EMBRYOGENESIS. The best way classifying the organism will be by raising the organism in the lab,to understand the organism's Embryological development, this will help to know the embryonic stages and patterns of development which takes place in the organisms.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
