You are investigating a new kind of flatworm and give it food attached to charcoal pieces so that the digestive system can be seen under a microscope. When you look, you can see what you think is a mouth but cannot see an anus. What kind of digestive system would this worm have?
-a hematocoel system
-a closed digestive system
-none of these choices are correct
-an incomplete digestive system
-radially symmetrical
Provide two characteristics of the digestive tract for an animal that eats mainly termites
All of the following statements are relevant to how sponges obtain nutrition EXCEPT:
A. Plankton gets stuck in spicules and is digested extra-cellularly, and absorbed into the sponges, gel-like matrix
B. flagellated choanocytes line their interior water canals
C. Flagellated cells whip up a water current, driving water into the sponge through pore cells
D. plankton gets caught in the choanocyte baskets
E. amoeboid cells absorb food from the choanocytes and distribute it to other cells in the sponge
