Question

What facilitates improved animal motility in eucoelomates?
Options
A The absence of a middle tissue layer
B Body flexibility provided by the coelom
Correct Answer
C The development of secondary radial symmetry
D A stationary lifestyle
Correct Answer

Option B is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The coelom provides space for gas/nutrient diffusion and body flexibility, which promotes improved motility. Stationary lifestyles are associated with radial symmetry, not coelom-driven motility.

Hint

The coelom allows the body to bend without compressing organs.
