  • <em>Those with three layers - mesoderm in addition to ectoderm and endoderm (triploblastic)</em>

Animals can be categorized based on presence/absence of body cavity or coelom;

  • <em>No body cavity - acoelomates</em>
  • <em>False body cavity - pseudocoelomates</em>
  • <em>True body cavity - coelomates</em>

How do we know that this is a positive test for this organic substance​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

For example, addition of an orange chromic acid reagent to some compounds causes the chromium reagent to change to a blue-green color (Figure 6.37a). This is considered a "positive" test result, and in this case indicates the presence of a functional group that can be oxidized (alcohol or aldehyde).
