The correct Answer is:
To determine the phylum characterized by a cylindrical body divided into ring-like segments, with a coelom and a digestive system, we can analyze the options provided: 1. **Cylindrata**: - Characteristics: Aquatic, mostly marine, diploblastic (two germ layers), tissue level of organization, and exist in two forms: polyp and medusa (e.g., Hydra). - Conclusion: This option is incorrect as it does not have a segmented body. 2. **Arthropoda**: - Characteristics: Jointed appendages, organ level of organization, bilateral symmetry, and triploblastic (three germ layers). - Conclusion: This option is incorrect as it does not have a segmented body divided into ring-like structures. 3. **Annelida**: - Characteristics: Can be aquatic or terrestrial, organ system level of organization, bilateral symmetry, triploblastic, and a body that is segmented into ring-like structures (called annuli). - Conclusion: This option fits the description perfectly, as annelids have a cylindrical body divided into segments, possess a coelom, and have a complete digestive system. 4. **Mollusca**: - Characteristics: Generally have unsegmented bodies. - Conclusion: This option is incorrect as it does not have a segmented body. Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Phylum Annelida**. ### Steps Summary: 1. Analyze the characteristics of each phylum provided in the options. 2. Eliminate options that do not match the description of having a cylindrical body divided into ring-like segments. 3. Identify the phylum that fits all the characteristics mentioned in the question. 4. Conclude that the correct answer is Phylum Annelida.
