Question
What is meant by triploblastic and diploblastic? Give one example from both the groups.

Answer

Triploblastic : Those animals in which the developing embryo has a third germinal layer, mesoderm, in between the ectoderm and endoderm, are called triploblastic animals (platyhelminthes to chordates).
Diploblastic: Animals in which the cells are arranged in two embryonic layers, an external ectoderm and an internal endoderm, are called diploblastic animals, e.g.. coelenterates.
