5. Phylum : Aschelminthes (ascus-sac, helminth-worm)/ Nemathelminthes (nemo-thread) e.g. Ascaris (Roundworm), Wuchereria (filarial worm), Ancylostoma (hook worm). (These are mostly parasitic, few forms are free-living. Body is long, cylindrical, thread like, circular in cross-section, hence are called round worms. They are triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical, pseudocoelmate, with tube within tube body plan. Body is covered by tough and resistant cuticle) (Body wall has longitudinal muscles but no circular muscles.) Alimentary canal is complete with mouth and anus at opposite ends. Pharynx is well developed and muscular. Excretion takes place by canals or gland cells. Excretory products are eliminated through excretory pore.) (Nervous system has nerve ring and nerves.) Animals are unisexual i.e. sexes are separate.) Animals like Ascaris shows sexual dimorphism. Usually female is longer and broader and have straight posterior end. Male is shorter and narrower and has curved posterior end with a pair of penial setae for copulation. Fertilization is internal. Development may or may not include larval stage.)
