Which is not correctly matched?
Options
- AAnnelida → Enterocoelomate
- BPlatyhelminthes → Acoelomate
- CArthropoda → Schizocoelomate
- DNemathelminthes → Pseudocoelomate
Correct answer
A. Annelida → Enterocoelomate
Step-by-step solution
Annelida possess true coelom. Their coelom is schizocoelic in origin (i.e., it is formed by the splitting of embryonic mesoderm), thus they can also be called schizocoelomata. Phylum Echinodermata and Chordata have enterocoelom, where the coelom is formed by the splitting of endoderm.
