Which of the following statements is NOT correct about the flatworms?

Parasitic flatworms have a well-developed head with eyespots and nerves concentrated into a brain.

If you live on a river delta or coastline, you may not be able to eat the local shellfish because of high levels of toxins present in the water. Why?

Clams filter-feed and concentrate the dilute pollutants from the water, thus acting as early warning indicators of severe pollution.

Which of these statements is NOT correct about the flatworms?

Planaria ingest food through a mouth located in the head region

Which statement is NOT correct about the roundworms?

Roundworms are essentially no more than parasitic flatworms that have lost their need to be flat.

Which statement about arachnids is NOT true?

Spiders have trachea for respiration.

Which statement about sponges is NOT correct?

Sponges are thought to be at the base of the evolutionary tree, leading to more complex animals such as corals and worms.

The adult body is bilaterally symmetrical.

Which statement about cnidaria is NOT true?

The body plan is tube-within-a-tube, with both mouth and anus.

If echinoderms are radially symmetrical, why are they not in the same phylum as the cnidarians?

The echinoderm larvae are originally bilaterally symmetrical but metamorphose into a radially symmetrical adult.

Which statement is NOT true about echinoderms?

The hydra is a tube-shaped polyp that has two layers of tissue

If you play with a living anemone with a probe, it will withdraw even if you vibrate the probe like prey would vibrate; it also withdraws if you just add sugar. However, it reaches out and grasps an object that both vibrates and tastes like food. The use of such a double system prevents unnecessary firing of expensive nematocysts. Why are nematocysts "expensive"?

The nematocyst is very complex and most likely costs the anemone much energy to build.

In flame cells

cilia drive fluids through tubules for excretion of excess water.

Fertilization in the earthworm is accomplished by the use of the
