Question

What is a flame cell?

Answer 1

Flame cell:

1. Flame cells are the simple specialized cells which act as excretory structures in the lower invertebrates like flatworms.
2. Animals like flatworms have flame cells as the excretory structures because these organisms do not have an organ-system level of body organization.
3. Flame cells work like kidneys, i.e. remove the waste materials out of the body.
