Body Cavity (Coelom)
• Present
• Pseudocoelomate –Body cavity is only
partially lined by tissue derived from
mesoderm
Body Symmetry
• Bilateral Symmetry

Nervous System
• Has a Pharyngeal Nerve Ring
–Essentially a ring of nerves
starting near the mouth and
extending back into the body
Circulatory System
• None - No blood system

Digestive System
• There is a digestive system with a through gut
• Oral cavity opens with a muscular pharynx
• Digestive glands found in gut
Excretory System
• Anus
• Removes nitrogenous (ammonia) wastes
through the body wall
Locomotion
• Longitudinal Muscles that produce thrashing
movement
• Muscular layer surrounds body cavity
• Filled with blood-lacking fluids
Skeletal Type
• None

Sensory Structures
• Lateral Nerves are sensory
• Ventral Nerves combine both Lateral and
Dorsal Nerve functions
• Contain sensory bristles and papillae to give a
sense of touch
• Chemoreception organs near the head
Reproduction
• Sexual
• Internal fertilization
• Zygotes of most species are resistant to
harmful conditions
• Females may deposit over 100,000 eggs in a
day
Gas Exchange
• Diffusion of gasses across the body wall, or
cuticle
Other Unique Features
• Found in most aquatic habitat, soil, moist
tissue of plants, and in body fluids and tissues
• Body is covered by tough coat called the
Cuticle which molts (sheds) after aging
• Many are parasitic
