Q.Concept Mapping - Use the following terms to create a concept map that shows the major characteristic features of the phylum nematoda:
Round worms, pseudocoelomates, digestive tract, cuticle, parasite, sexual dimorphism

Step 1. Place 'Round worms' as the central node, since it is the common name for the phylum being mapped (Nematoda/Aschelminthes).

Step 2. Branch out to the phylum's structural features: round worms are pseudocoelomates (their body cavity is only partly lined by mesoderm), and their body is covered by a tough, protective cuticle. A further branch shows that, unlike acoelomate flatworms, round worms have a complete digestive tract, with a separate mouth and anus. …

Group the six given terms into structural (pseudocoelomate, cuticle, digestive tract) and biological (parasite, sexual dimorphism) …

• Listing the terms in a straight chain instead of a branching map that groups related concepts together. …
