Solution
The correct option is C By splitting of embryonic mesoderm and filled with blood The true coelom is a body cavity which arises in embryonic mesoderm. In arthropods, annelids and Mollusca, it originates by splitting of embryonic mesoderm. It is called schizocoelom. The cavity is filled with a colourless blood called as haemocoel.
