**Question:**
What is the name of the structure/organ indicated by the A in the image below?

**Image Description:**
The image shows a microscopic view of a flatworm, likely a planarian. The organism is elongated with a light green outline. Black, branching structures are visible throughout the interior, which are typical of the digestive tract of a planarian. 

**Label and Indication:**
A letter "A" is highlighted in blue, with a yellow arrow pointing to a specific organ or structure within the flatworm. The indicated area seems to be centrally located in the organism's body, possibly referencing the gastrovascular cavity or another internal organ.

**Explanation:**
This type of question is common in biology for identifying internal anatomical structures based on microscopic images.

Expert Solution
Step 1: Introduce -Few important points

Animals are extraordinarily diverse in form and constitute millions of species.

The animals are classified as vertebrates and invertebrates, based on the presence of the spinal cord and backbone.

Animals are multicellular eukaryotes with heterotrophic modes of nutrition usually ingestive in nature.

Three different levels of organization exist in animals. These are as follows.

  • Cellular Level
  • Tissue level
  • Organ level
