Platyhelminthes are also known as "flatworms" because as they are dorsoventrally flattened from head to tail. They are invertebrate, soft-bodied, acoelomate, unsegmented and have bilateral symmetry.
In this class, we have discussed how populations form communities to create ecosystems and learn that comparing different communities could be done simply by determining species richness or species diversity. But to fully explore an ecosystem, we have to discuss the major components of its biodiversity. What are the major components of biodiversity and what is the importance of biodiversity?
