Solution

Dear student,
Segmentated means when outer region of an organism is divided into equal parts/sections.
Eg: Arthropoda

Metamerically Segment means when interior body organs(tissues and organs) and outer segments are repeated after one another.
Similar, repetitive segments are called as metameres or somites.
Eg: Earthworm
