- What is the significance of having an invariant cell lineage of the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans?arrow_forwardWorms are present in the Platyhelminthes, Annelid and Nematode lineages. How is the coelom used to differentiate among these different types of worms? Platyhelminthes exhibit a coelom only in the embryo, Annelids exhibit a coelom only in juveniles, and Nematodes exhibit a coelom in both embryos and adults. Platyhelminthes exhibit a coelom in embryos, Annelids exhibit a coelom only in juveniles and Nematodes lack a coelom. Platyhelminthes develop a coelom before the anal and oral pores develop, Annelids develop a coelom at the same time the anal and oral pores develop, and Nematodes lack a coelom. Platyhelminthes develop one coelom, Annelids develop two coelom, and Nematodes develop three coelom but then lose the one derived from mesoderm. Platyhelminthes lack a coelom, Annelids exhibit a coelom and Nematodes have a pseudocoelom.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is the correct classification for the following invertebrate animal: This animal has a wedge shaped muscular "foot", and it is a filter feeder.
