The term "lophophore" applies to the phylum Bryozoa, as they possess a characteristic feeding structure called a lophophore, which is a horseshoe-shaped ring of ciliated tentacles used for filter-feeding. Radial symmetry applies to animals such as cnidarians, while Parazoa and deuterostome apply to different groups of animals characterized by different embryonic development patterns. Radial cleavage refers to a specific type of cell division during embryonic development and is not a characteristic of a particular phylum.
