- Figure 27.6 Which of the following statements is false? Eumetazoans have specialized tissues and parazoans don’t. Lophotrochozoa and Ecdysozoa are both Bilataria. Acoela and Cnidaria both possess radial symmetry. Arthropods are more closely related to nematodes than they are to annelids.arrow_forwardPlacozoans are structurally simple. They have no mouth, gut, or nervous system and only a few distinct cell types. This simplicity is thought to be secondarily derived, because they have an asymmetrical adult stage. are composed of an upper and lower body surface that sandwiches a layer of contractile fibers. exhibit asexual and sexual reproduction. are sessile filter feeders. are found in tropical and subtropical oceans.arrow_forwardGeneral characteristics of protozoans Internal and external structures Feeding strategies Locomotion Adaptations Reproductionarrow_forward
