Ceolom is
Fluid filled cavity between internal organs and body wall
Which Phyla are aceolomates?
Cnidaria
Platyhelminthes
What is the solid body of aceolomates made of?
Mesogloea
Mesenchyme/ parenchyma
What is the primary body cavity in pseudocoel called?
Blastocoel- reduced on gut formation
Blastocoel
Primary body cavity in embryonic development
Reduced on gut formation but leaves space between endo and ectoderm
How is the solid body of aceolomates formed?
In the blastocoel after the pseudoceol is reduced
formed as a result of failure of parenchyma to completely fill space between mesoderm and and gut wall
Xtics of pseudoceolomates
No peritoneal layer ( present in ceolom)
- Gut wall has no muscle layers
- organs partly bathed in PERIVISCERAL FLUID and free within the cavity
- Pseudocoel formed as a result of failure of parenchyma to completely fill space between mesoderm and and gut wall
Which phylum is a pseudoceolomate?
Nematoda
What separates the fluid from the gut and body wall in ceulomic cavity?
Peritoneal epithelium— Peritoneum
How does ceolom form in ceolomates
Bu splitting of mesoderm due to fluid accumulation during development
