Question

Body cavity of annelids/Nereis is

• A. Schizocoel
• B. Enterocoel
• C. Pseudocoel
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Schizocoel

Schizocoely is a process by which some animal embryos develop. Animals which develop through schizocoely are known as schizocoelomates in annelids. Schizocoely occurs when a coelom (body cavity) is formed by splitting the mesodermal embryonic tissue. Schizocoel.It is divided by transverse septa into the compartment. It is filled with coelomic fluid that contains cells. As such, there is no skeleton. Fluid-filled coelom serves as a hydrostatic skeleton.

So the correct answer is 'Schizocoel'.
