Question

In which of the following class the larvae can be found?

• A. Vertebrates
• B. Invertebrates
• C. Both A and B
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Both A and B

A number of vertebrates (notably fishes and amphibia) and invertebrates (Porifera, Coelenterata, Annelida, Mollusca etc.) show indirect development ie first a free-living larva develops from the egg and later on this larva metamorphoses into the adult form.

So, the correct answer is option C.
