To determine:
The distinguishing character of the flatworm and the roundworm that help in determining the organism is a round worm or a flat worm.

The
Explanation of Solution
The flatworms are worms that have a head and tail. As the name suggests they are flat and bilaterally symmetrical. They do not have body cavity. They are bilaterally symmetrical with a definite upper and lower surface.
The round worms are called so because their body is cylindrical and long, they do not have definite dorsal and ventral surface. They are bilaterally symmetrical. The ends of the worms are tapered or pointy at both ends. They are intestinal
Hence, if the organism is flat and unsegmented it would be a flatworm and if it is round and have tapered ends, it would be a round worm.
