Platyhelminthes - flatworms

•  Description Animals that are • triploblastic • no body cavity(aceolomate) • central nervous system • bilateral symmetry

Platyhelminthes - flatworms

Free living flatworms Tapeworms

Flukes

There can be two

Ectoderm

Endoderm

or three

Mesoderm

Diploblastic Triploblastic

Tissue Layers

Body Cavities

Coelomate - the coelom is lined on both sides with mesoderm

Pseudocoelomate - the coelom (= pseudocoelom) is lined on one side with mesoderm

Acoelomate - there is no body cavity between the digestive tract and body wall

3. Body Cavities - There are three different kinds

Platyhelminthes - flatworms

Basic Structure - body plan

endoderm mesoderm ectoderm

Acoelomate!!

Platyhelminthes - flatworms Basic Structure - a few improvements

Excretion

Platyhelminthes - flatworms

Basic Structure - a few improvements

Digestion

-digestion begins in the pharynx and nutrients are absorbed in the gastrovascular cavity
