In contrast to annelids the platyhelminthes show
radial symmetry

Platyhelminthes does not have coelomic or pseudocoelomic cavity for digestion of food as found in higher organisms. These group of organisms are known to obtain their digested food directly.
One of the examples of the action of the autonomous nervous system is
knee-jerk response
pupillary reflex
swallowing of food
peristalsis of the intestines
Epithelial cells ofthe intestine involved in food absorption have on their surface
pinocytic vesicles
phagocytic vesicles
zymogen granules
micro-villi
