Step-by-step solution
In sponges, the cells are arranged as loose cell aggregates, i.e., they exhibit cellular level of organisation. ,Presence or absence of a cavity between the body wall and the gut wall is very important in classification. The body cavity, which is lined by mesoderm is called coelom. Animals possessing coelom are called coelomates, e.g., annelids, molluscs, arthropods, echinoderms, hemichordates and chordate
