I've been searching the internet about if nematodes have a skeleton or not. While I do know that nematodes have a pseudocoelom that acts as a hydrostatic skeleton, various sources on the internet says otherwise. Although, I have also seen some sources saying that they do have skeleton. So, what's true about the skeleton on nematodes? I thought if I'm going to ask on the internet, I'd ask here, since most people here are professionals and expert in their chosen field. :)
SOURCES SAYING THEY DON'T HAVE SKELETON:
