Classify the following organisms based on the absence/presence of true coelom (i.e., coelomate, pseudocoelomate and acoelomate)
Spongilla, Sea anemone, Planaria, Liver fluke
Wuchereria, Ascaris, Nereis, Earthworm,
Scorpion, Birds, Fishes, Horse.
A coelomate has a body cavity between the body wall and the digestive tract.
Pseudocoelomate has a fluid-filled body cavity between the endoderm and the mesoderm.
Acoelomates do not have a body cavity or a coelom.
