Question
Consider the following features: (A) Organ system level of organisation (B) Bilateral symmetry (C) True coelom with segmentation of body
Select the correct option of animal groups that possess all the above characteristics:
Annelida, Mollusca and Chordata
Annelida, Arthropoda and Chordata
Annelida, Arthropoda and Mollusca
Arthropoda, Mollusca and Chordata
the organ system level of organisation, bilateral symmetry, and true coelom (coelomate) are common features shared by Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, and Chordata . However, the distinguishing feature in this list is body segmentation. The sources explicitly describe Annelida as being metamerically segmented and Arthropoda as segmented . Similarly, Chordata is classified as possessing segmentation . Conversely, members of the phylum Mollusca are specifically identified as being unsegmented . Therefore, only the group in Option 2 contains animal phyla that all possess every listed characteristic.
This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Animal Kingdom. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
