Consider an early reef-builder of the Cambrian, the archaeocyathid. Using correct terminology for marine ecosystems,
classify this organism on where it lives, how it gets around, and how it feeds. How does the lifestyle of archeocyathids
compare with that of Cambrian trilobites? What will be an ideal response?
Archaeocyathids are benthic, sessile, suspension feeders. Trilobites, although benthic, were
mobile sediment-deposit feeders.
