Definition of a pseudocoelom?- a fluid-filled body cavity, (derived from the
blastocoel), which surrounds the gut.
Functions (i.e. what’s it used for?)
• Hydrostatic skeleton
• Circulatory
• Location of organs – reproduction & excretion

NEMATODA • (Roundworms)• Eutely• Only longitudinal muscles• Pseudocoelom functions as
circulatory system• Complete digestive system• Renette cells - excretion• Amoeboid sperm

PHYLUM
ROTIFERA Cirri, corona & trochus bring in water
currents and therefore aid in feeding, respiration and locomotion
Mastax & trophi = internal feeding apparatus
Pedal glands and spurs (toes) – attachment
Flame bulb/protonephridia-excretion Parthenogenesis/amictic, mictic,
viviparous
