What are free swimming ciliated larva seen in most aquatic mollusks?
The free swimming ciliated larva seen in most aquatic mollusks is called a trochophore larva. It has a ring of cilia around its middle that aids in movement and feeding. Trochophore larvae eventually develop into the adult form of the mollusk.
What phylum does trochophore larva belong to?
Mollusca and Annelida are two phylas with trochophore larvae
Larval stage of mollusks and annelids?
The larval stage of mollusks is called a trochophore, which is a free-swimming, ciliated larva that eventually develops into the adult form. For annelids, the larval stage is called a trochophore or a nectochaete, which also metamorphoses into the adult form after a period of growth and development.
What is a trochophore Describe its nature?
A trochophore is a type of free-swimming larva found in some marine invertebrates, such as mollusks and annelids. It is characterized by a band of cilia, known as the prototroch, that is used for locomotion. Trochophores typically have a distinctive body shape with a ring of cilia on the upper part of the body.
What are the evolutionary implications of a trochophore?
The trochophore larva is a common larval form found in marine invertebrates, like mollusks and annelids. Its development is thought to be evolutionarily significant as it may represent a stage in the evolution of more complex life forms. The presence of trochophore larvae in different groups suggests a shared evolutionary history and may reflect common ancestry.
Annelids and mollusks share a larval stage called a?
Trochophore.
What is the larva of a cnidarian called?
the larva is called the Planula

What larva called tadpole?
Frog larva
Do platyhelminthes have a trochophore larval stage?
No, platyhelminthes do not have a trochophore larval stage. Trochophore larvae are typically characteristic of marine annelids and mollusks. Platyhelminthes have a diverse range of reproductive strategies, but they do not generally exhibit a trochophore larval stage in their life cycle.
