The correct answer is option B

The word" pseudo" means false and the organism that have false coelom and is called as pseudocoelomates.

The organisms like roundworms which a fluid filled body cavity. The tissue that is derived from the mesoderm partially lines in a fluid filled community.

Although the organs are held in the place loosely, they are not organized as like that of ceolomates.
