Question

Corals are poriferans with asymmetrical body.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Corals belong to Phylum Coelentrata or Cnidaria and are radially symmetrical. According to which, any plane passing through the central axis of the body divides the organism into two equal halves. Whereas, members of Phylum Porifera have asymmetrical body, i.e. any plane passing through their body doesn't divide them into two equal halves.
