Question : What cells help in osmoregulation in Platyhelminthes?
Option 1: Nerve cells
Option 2: Flame cells
Option 3: Gangla
Option 4: Hooks
Correct Answer: Flame cells
Solution : The correct option is Flame cells.
Flame cells are responsible for water regulation and solute balance in the flatworm's body by excreting excess waste and maintaining proper osmotic balance.
Flame cells are mainly found in freshwater organisms. These are the specialised cells that perform the function of excretion. Flame cells are found in clusters and are known as protonephridia. These cells also contain a nucleus. Flagella, a cup-shaped projection, also projects out of the cell.
