question
What distinguishes a coelomate animal from a pseudocoelomate animal is that coelomates have a body cavity, whereas pseudocoelomates have a solid body. have a complete digestive system with mouth and anus, whereas pseudocoelomates have a digestive tract with only one opening. have a body cavity completely lined by mesodermal tissue, whereas pseudocoelomates do not. contain tissues derived from mesoderm, whereas pseudocoelomates have no such tissue. have a gut that lacks suspension within the body cavity, whereas pseudocoelomates have mesenteries that hold the digestive system in place.
