Single Choice

Read the given statements and select the correct option. Statement 1 : All triploblastic animals are eucoelomates. Statement 2 : They have a false coelom.

ABoth statements 1 and 2 are correct.
BStatement 1 is correct but statement 2 is incorrect.
CStatements 1 is incorrect but statement 2 is correct.
DBoth statements 1 and 2 are incorrect.
Correct Answer

Solution

Animals belonging to Phyla Platyhelminthes to Chordata are triploblastic while poriferans and cnidarians are diploblastic. Sponges, cnidarians, ctenophorans and platyhelminthes are acoelomates, aschelminthes are pseudocoelomates and annelids, arthropods, echinoderms and chordates are eucoelomates. Eucoelomates have true coelom.
Hence the correct option is D.
