Answer: (A) A only. Only statement A is correct: annelids are triploblastic, metamerically segmented coelomate (true coelom) animals.
- A.A only✓
- B.C only
- C.D only
- D.B only
Correct Answer
(A) A only
Solution & Explanation
Only statement A is correct: annelids are triploblastic, metamerically segmented coelomate (true coelom) animals. Poriferans are acoelomates (not pseudocoelomates), Aschelminthes are pseudocoelomates (not acoelomates), and Platyhelminthes are acoelomates (not pseudocoelomates), so B, C and D are all wrong. The answer is A only, option (a). NCERT Reference: Page 39, line 10
