Question: 1
Differentiate between Coelomates and Acoelomates.
Answer: 1
1-40

Answer: 12
12-40
In early embryonic development a fluid filled cacity which develops in the mass of cell formed at blastula stage is called blastocoel,

Answer: 13
13-40
The occurrence of structure and functionally more than two different forms of individual called zooids within same organism is called polymorphism,e.g in Obelia there are feeding individual,the gastrozooids,the individual capable of asexual reproduction only the gonozooids and the free living sexuallt reproducinh indivuals the medusae.

Answer: 17
17-40
Protandrous mean male sex cell mature first.
Internal buds of sponges are called gemmules.
