Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The arthopods haave a much reduced coelomic cavity . The space between the gut and body wall is mostly occupied by mucles and organs with blood containing interspaces. These spaces together form the haemocoel , which is not a true coelom as it is not lined by the mesodermal epithelium.
