Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Acoelomates are those animals which do not have coelom (body cavity), e.g., coelentrates (Adamsia) and flatworms (Planaria and liver fluke). Coelomates are the organisms with true coelom, e.g., annelids (Nereis and earthworm) and arthropods (scorpion). Pseudocoelomates have false coelom, e.g., nematodes (Wuchereria and Ascaris).
