Solution

The correct option is C Enterocoel with differentiation of three regions
  • Schizocoel is a type of coelom which is derived by splitting of mesoderm. It is not present in hemichordates.
  • Enterocoel is derived out of gastric pouches during embryonic development. It is present in hemichordates and their body is differentiated into three regions- proboscis, collar and trunk.
  • Since hemichordates are enterocoelomates, the coelom is not absent in them.
So, the correct answer is option C.
