While trying to find out the characteristic of a newly found animal, a researcher did the histology of adult animal and observed a cavity with presence of mesodermal tissue towards the body wall but no mesodermal tissue was observed towards the alimentary canal. What could be the possible coelome of that animal?

Options

  1. AAcoelomate
  2. BPseudocoelomate
  3. CSchizocoelomate
  4. DSpongocoelomate

Correct answer

B. Pseudocoelomate

Step-by-step solution

In pseudocoelomates, the body cavity is not entirely lined with mesoderm, instead, mesodermal tissue is present along the body wall but not towards the gut. - Schizocoelomates are animals whose coelom or body cavity develops middle from a split in the mesoderm, the middle germ layer of the embryo. - In acoelomates, coelom is absent. Spongocoel is a central cavity found in Sponges.
