Question

Why aschelminthes are called pseudocoelomates?

Answer 1

Aschelminthes:

1. The pseudocoelom, a bodily cavity of pseudocoelomate metazoans, is filled with fluid and lacks a cellular peritoneal lining, unlike a real coelom.
2. Most pseudocoelomates (such as those in the groups Nematoda and Rotifera) are diminutive, and none have separate vascular systems.
3. A bodily cavity that is partially enclosed by mesodermal tissue because it is located between mesodermal and endodermal tissue is known as a pseudocoelom.
4. Because mesodermal tissue entirely encircles a "real" coelom, it can be separated into compartments.
5. The Aschelminthes phylum contains pseudocoelom, also known as a pseudo coelom. Mesoderm does not line with the pseudocoelom.
6. Between the ectoderm and the endoderm are sporadic pouches of mesoderm.
7. Roundworms are a common name for them.
