What is meant when it is said that beings of the phylum Annelida are vascular beings? From which other phyla of the animal kingdom does this feature differentiate them?

1 Answer

Answer :

The classification of these beings as vascular beings means that they have a circulatory system, with vessels that distribute substances throughout the body. Poriferans, cnidarians and flatworms do not have a circulatory system. In nematodes there is circulation of gases and nutrients through the pseudocoelom fluid.
