Phylum Platyhelminthes, commonly known as flatworms, encompasses a diverse group of invertebrate animals characterized by their flattened bodies and bilateral symmetry. This phylum includes organisms such as planarians, flukes, and tapeworms. Flatworms are primarily aquatic or parasitic, and they lack a coelom (body cavity) and specialized respiratory and circulatory systems, relying instead on diffusion for gas exchange. Their simple body structure and regenerative abilities make them a significant focus of biological research.
