Why E is wrong? Isn't nematoda pseudocoelom? It is also bilateral too!

 

[DocVaquero]

It says 'lacking a coelom or pseudocoelom'

Well in addition to nilocdent's answer, you need to take note of "BILATERAL" animal. Porifera is not bilateral. It has no symmetry at all. If the question did not specify bilateral then porifera would be a correct answer. Check the cliff's table 10-3. It has a great summary.

Are there questions like this on the DAT where you need to memorize the symmetry of all these organisms?

I don't know personally but since everyone that took it said it can be very random there is a possibility it can pop up. If bootcamp has it then study it imo.

You might get a taxonomy question like this. Honestly if you review the chart in cliffs bio and go through destroyer you will be fine. They usually test on common ones.
