CHAPTER 4: THE PHYLA The dilemma of the Cambrian Explosion becomes more apparent when considering how animals are classified. A phylum is the most basic category scientists use for classification, followed by class, order, family, genus, and species. Some 20 entirely new phyla appear in the Cambrian. This shows not just minor variations, but entirely new body plans must be explained. DARWIN’S DILEMMA is based on the book Darwin’s Doubt by Dr Stephen Meyer. Production was completed in 2009. The documentary presents fossil evidence that defies Darwinian evolution and supports Meyer’s argument that the Cambrian fossil record gives strong evidence for intelligent design.
